How the course works

  • One situation a day

    10 lessons of ~20 minutes: stand-up, estimates, bugs, code review, calls, Slack, explaining, demos, incidents, interview.

  • Work phrases with audio

    Phrases you really hear in international teams. Listen at normal or slow speed and repeat aloud.

  • AI role-play

    The AI plays your team lead, PM, client or interviewer. You answer by voice or text, and the AI scores it, fixes mistakes and shows how to sound more professional.

  • Smart review

    The course brings back the phrases you got wrong, so they come naturally at your next meeting.

From the morning stand-up to the tech interview — what you do in English every week.

    No cards or passwords: all you need to start is an email or a Google account.

    Day 1

Work English is not a list of words: you hear it, say it and use it in a situation.

  1. ReviewPhrases from earlier days that are due to come back.
  2. New phrases3–4 phrases at a time with audio, translation and an example, checked right away.
  3. Rules of the dayThe grammar you need right here: I fixed or I’ve fixed, will or going to, the passive in reports.
  4. Build a sentencePut work phrases together from words, so you remember them whole.
  5. DialogueA scene from team life with audio and a fill-the-gap exercise.
  6. AI role-playAnswer a teammate, a client or an interviewer; the AI scores you and suggests a better answer.

Who is this course for?

Developers, QA, designers, PMs and anyone working in IT at B1–B2: you read docs and emails, but at the stand-up or with a client you lack words and confidence. Not sure about your level? Take the free English for IT test.

Which situations are in the course?

Daily stand-up, estimates and deadlines, bugs and bug reports, code review, calls and meetings, Slack and work emails, explaining tech to non-technical people, demos and presentations, incidents and bad news, the tech interview.

How does the AI role-play work?

The AI plays the person in the situation — a team lead, PM, QA, client or interviewer — and says a line (you can listen to it). You answer in English by text or voice. The AI gives a score out of 10, says what was good, fixes mistakes and shows a more professional answer. It doesn’t judge technical decisions, only language and communication. A sample strong answer is always there, even without the AI.

What is free and what do I pay for?

Day 1 — the daily stand-up with phrases, a dialogue and a role-play — is completely free; you only need to sign in with email or Google. The other 9 days open after one payment of $25, no subscription.

How do I pay? Can I pay from abroad?

Yes: with a Visa or Mastercard from any bank and country, Apple Pay or Google Pay (monobank payments). The amount is charged in hryvnias at the NBU rate; your bank converts it to your currency.

How is it different from the job interview course?

“English for Job Interviews” is about interviews in any field. “English for IT” is about everyday work in an IT team: stand-ups, reviews, bugs, calls, Slack; the tech interview is only the last day.
