According to statistics, more than 75% of orders for software development come to domestic specialists from foreigners and almost all customers prefer to communicate in English. That is why every IT specialist should be proficient in it. In this article we will tell you how English will help you in your work and what resources you need to use when learning English for programmers.
If you have already started working in the IT field, then you understand perfectly well that programmers cannot do without English. However, some people believe that technical English does not need to be taught: almost all terminology comes from English, so everything will be clear as is. For those who are not sure whether it is worth spending time learning a foreign language, we will give several compelling arguments.
Most programming languages are based on English keywords.
Some of them lack a Russified interface.
Almost all reference materials and technical specifications are written in English (if you are interested in orders from abroad).
Many foreign companies actively use the services of Russian IT specialists, and in order to accurately understand the needs of clients, you need to know English well.
The latest books and articles in the IT field are published in English. Programmers need to constantly be aware of all the news and updates, so it’s worth learning English.
You can find hundreds of free training courses from programming gurus on the Internet. And with paid courses you can get an international diploma - a big plus for your resume.
In your work, you periodically encounter complex tasks and some problems, the solutions to which can be found in the English-speaking part of the Internet.
It's no secret that almost all IT giants are located in the USA. Such companies constantly require competent specialists, but in order to communicate with colleagues and management, you need to know English. Want to work in Silicon Valley? Learn English.
Read how our student learns English to promote his computer game on Steam, now communicates freely with colleagues from the European office, and studies English for career prospects.
In learning English, as in any other matter, you should use your strengths and try to work on your weaknesses. Let's find out what you have to work on.
How to use: Grammar is a logical structure, so with regular practice it will not be difficult for you to learn it.
How to use: It will be easier for you to learn English for IT, because you already have a good base of vocabulary. As you study words, you will notice that many of the “technical” words you are familiar with have a different meaning in general spoken English.
Cause: Technical texts tend to use complex terminology but very simple grammatical structures, so you may not have paid enough attention to grammar. Everything is decided by studying the designs and doing practical exercises.
Cause: You have had very little or no speaking practice. Because of this, the so-called “dog syndrome” develops, that is, you understand everything, but cannot say it yourself. Practicing speaking will solve this problem.
Cause: Programmers do not often have to perceive information in English by ear, so you may have problems understanding the speech of your interlocutor. Working with audio materials will save you from this.
We have found out your strengths and weaknesses, and now we need to decide how to learn English for programmers. Based on our experience, you should start learning specialized English for IT after you have completed the Pre-Intermediate course. Before this, it is better to study general spoken English in order to lay a solid basis for professional knowledge.
Where is the best place to learn a language? Finding special courses for learning English for developers is almost impossible, so the best solution would be individual lessons with a teacher. It will be even more convenient to study English without interruption from your favorite computer, and we suggest you do this. If you want to study English for IT, we recommend that you study materials on your topic during the lessons, that is, learn only what you need.
In this section, we would like to introduce you to basic concepts in English that will be useful to almost every IT specialist. For convenience, we have identified a set of IT-related verbs, as well as words related to the Internet, hardware and software.

Developers can learn grammatical structures using ordinary general materials, because the rules do not depend on your profession. While there is no special English grammar for programmers, we recommend using the following resources:
In the development of this skill, everything is logical: in order to speak, you need to speak. Some people believe that oral language development can be achieved through textbooks and online exercises, but this is not true. Imagine that you have read the entire tutorial on Python, but have not tried programming in it. Will you be able to write a high-quality program right away? Most likely, it will work with errors, and only after much practice will you learn to write something sensible in this language.
The situation with English is similar: no textbook or tutorial can replace your conversational practice with your interlocutor. Therefore, look for a partner to speak English. Moreover, you can develop oral speech without leaving home. Use the site
English is spoken by more than 400 million people around the world and another 1.5 billion use it as a second language. All programming documentation is initially in English, the 5 million Stack Overflow community communicates in English. Interesting and monetary orders, the latest news from the IT sphere and much more are closed to developers who do not speak this language. Knowledge of English is a prerequisite for successful employment and career growth as a programmer. To help GeekBrains blog subscribers learn, we with the startup team for learning English via Skype EnglishDom We have prepared practical tips on how to learn technical English quickly and effectively.
This is relevant for anyone who wants to quickly learn a foreign language. Don’t look for excuses in established phrases like: “five minutes doesn’t solve anything.” During this time, you can read the news in English, learn a few words, or watch a thematic video. Look for opportunities, not excuses. Download an English audiobook to listen to while riding the subway, or a language learning app to make the most of those five minutes.
For better memorization study words in context of use. For example, to master English terminology on the topic “Algebra of Sets,” read the thematic articles and highlight unknown words. After that, practice them by studying materials on the topic until you can do without a dictionary. This method of studying will allow you to understand the nuances of the meanings of words, which cannot be achieved simply by memorizing a dictionary.
“Learn technical English” is too abstract a goal. New words appear every day and even native speakers do not know all the subtleties. And when something is too abstract, it is impossible to understand the quality of the result, because of this there is no motivation. That's why set specific, measurable goals, for example: “Complete a small order from an English-speaking employer,” “Read such and such a book on Java in English,” “Know 100 technical terms,” “Ask for advice on an English-language resource.”
Here you can pick up current expressions that programmers around the world use in informal communication. This is not just a fun whim. Knowing the intricacies will be important for subsequent communication with foreign colleagues and customers.
Firstly, it is an inexhaustible source of new words and expressions. Secondly, you will be “in touch” with the latest events and innovations from the IT world.
Knowledge of vocabulary without listening skills is not enough. In order to successfully communicate with foreign customers and colleagues, you need to be able to perceive the language by ear. In order to acquire this skill, we recommend watching videos from conferences, hackathons, and presentations. The main rule is maximum live communication. Films, TV series, programs are useful, but they will not give the same effect as familiarization with “unfiltered” speech. You can also listen to audio recordings, but watching a video creates the effect of complete immersion in the language environment; everything is tracked, right down to the speaker’s characteristic gestures and facial expressions.
A person only remembers well what he uses. This fact is due to the fact that the brain considers a skill that has not been used for a long time to be irrelevant. That's why It is very important to sometimes repeat even long-studied and obvious words and expressions. It's better if this is done in practice.
Learn grammar along with vocabulary, this will give a deeper understanding of the language and its structures. When young children learn to speak, they are not drilled into dozens of rules on the use of articles (although, unfortunately, this is often the case when learning languages at school), they simply watch how others do it and repeat after them.
You can make learning even a dry technical language enjoyable. Find a specific topic or news story in English that interests you and try to translate it. When you understand that this will bring you results now, for example, in the form of new knowledge about technology, it is very motivating.
Everyone talks about this, but not many use this mandatory rule. The absence of a language barrier, the ability to quickly switch to conversational mode and select the right words are some of the most important indicators of language proficiency at an advanced level. Look for every opportunity to talk. For example, you can communicate with native speakers in text and video chats.
Today is programmer's day. On this occasion, there is a holiday in our office, balloons, fireworks (in fact, no: we work hard). But we couldn’t ignore such a day, so we prepared an article about technical English for IT specialists.
Why does a developer need English (this question made me laugh). The answer is obvious: English is needed to understand terminology, work with English-language interfaces, read technical documentation, study professional literature, conferences and webinars... And, of course, to be able to work abroad.
The developers already know a huge number of English words (just listen to ours: it’s as if they don’t speak Russian at all, but only “fix”, “debug”, “asapyat”). But using professional slang does not mean fully proficient in English. Therefore, we have collected resources in this article that will help you fully improve your English for work.
The vocabulary for developers is extensive. Those whom the average person might call an “IT person” include a dozen different specializations: frontend developers, backend developers, testers, web designers, product designers, and others (but all of them must be able to “fix a computer”).
We have collected sources where you can find both basic and highly specialized vocabulary.
Textbooks are especially suitable for those who decide to learn the language on their own, as they offer a ready-made lesson program.
English for Information Technology– Suitable for entry level. Includes basic basic vocabulary.
Career path Software Engineering– a lexical guide for programmers that combines specialized vocabulary and work situations to develop communication skills. Topics: software development, testing, user interface, modeling, career options, etc.
Oxford English for Information Technology– another full-fledged course. Suitable for intermediate level. Includes a student workbook and an accompanying audio course.
Professional English in Use ICT– the course is suitable for intermediate level. The book is built from simple to complex, all units are divided into topics.
Check Your English Vocabulary for Computers and IT– a workbook designed to improve understanding of technical vocabulary. Includes crosswords, puzzles, etc.
On the Internet you can find sites with various online trainers for your technical English.
You can also find specialized vocabulary on the following websites:
The sites are in English, but ours will translate any word in two clicks.
The most effective way to expand your vocabulary is to “take” words out of their living context. For example, read an article about a professional issue and write down new words from there. Such vocabulary will be better remembered, because it will be associated with a high-quality context.
The Lingualeo library of materials contains more than 250 thousand authentic texts, videos, audio, etc. The main feature is that you can 1. click on an unfamiliar word ⇒ 2. see the translation ⇒ 3. add a word to study ⇒ 4. learn it using . And the context will always be with you.
We have a huge amount of materials on IT topics: collection, collection, etc.
Also, vocabulary and ideas can be drawn from and from special. And we have collected cool examples of Elevator pitch.
How to search for materials: enter any technical term in English and sort the materials by difficulty level and format (video, audio, book). Instructions at the link.
The principle of working with texts on other sites can be just as convenient: 1. install ⇒ 2. point at unfamiliar words ⇒ 3. and add them for study.
Where to look for texts:
Full command of a foreign language includes 4 skills: reading (we named many sites for it), listening, writing and speaking (that is, speech). We will find additional resources for listening and speaking.
Some of the collections on Lingualeo that I mentioned above are collections with videos that will also help improve your listening skills. Now let's find some podcasts:
Well, once again we congratulate those involved on the holiday! Now let's go. 🙂
