The Largest Free IT English Exercise Library for Developers
Practice the English you actually need at work — code reviews, technical interviews, API documentation, sprint meetings, post-mortems, and more. Built by developers, for developers.
Why IT Professionals Need Specialised English Practice
Code Reviews
Giving and receiving feedback in English requires precise vocabulary: "nit", "blocking comment", "LGTM", "you might want to consider". Getting this wrong affects team relationships.
Technical Interviews
Knowing how to explain system design, describe your experience with STAR format, and ask smart follow-up questions is a separate skill from technical knowledge.
Technical Writing
PRs, ADRs, post-mortems, runbooks, RFCs — each has its own vocabulary and structure. Unclear writing slows down your team and hurts your visibility.
Meetings & Standups
Sprint planning, estimation discussions, retros, and architecture reviews all require specific English patterns that general language courses never teach.
Reading Documentation
RFCs, API references, package changelogs, job descriptions — understanding technical English at speed is a skill that improves with deliberate practice.
Vocabulary Precision
"Deploy a feature" or "release a feature"? "Raise a ticket" or "create a ticket"? Wrong collocations mark you as a non-native speaker even when your grammar is perfect.

How It Works
- 1
Choose your focus
Browse by exercise type, IT role, or skill level — or go directly to a specific topic (e.g. "Kubernetes vocabulary" or "system design interview").
- 2
Read → Answer → Learn
Each exercise presents a realistic IT scenario. Choose your answer, then read a detailed explanation that teaches not just the right answer but the surrounding vocabulary and usage patterns.
- 3
Apply immediately
Every explanation connects the language to real-world usage — "this is what you'd say in a code review", "this phrasing appears in RFCs", "in a job interview, the natural way to say this is…".
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is English for IT really free?
- Yes, completely. No account, no subscription, no paywall. All 3,000+ exercise pages are free to use directly in your browser.
- How is this different from general English learning apps?
- General apps teach everyday English. We focus exclusively on the English you need at work as a software professional — code review vocabulary, technical interview language, writing ADRs and post-mortems, understanding RFCs and job descriptions, and communicating in standups and sprint planning meetings.
- I already speak English conversationally. Will this help me?
- Yes. Conversational fluency is not the same as professional IT English fluency. Even developers who speak English well often struggle with technical writing, collocation errors ("make a deploy" vs "run a deployment"), interview communication, and understanding native-speaker idioms in code reviews.
- Do I need to start at the beginning?
- No. Every exercise is self-contained. Browse by skill (Vocabulary, Reading, Writing, etc.), by IT role (108 curated learning paths), or use the search to jump directly to the topic you need.
- How current is the content?
- We update exercises continuously to reflect the tools and practices developers actually use. The vocabulary library covers topics up to 2026 — including LLMs, eBPF, GitOps, feature flags, and platform engineering.
- Can I use this to prepare for a technical interview?
- Yes. We have 89 interview-specific exercise pages covering 30+ IT roles. Each page focuses on the English language skills needed to answer technical questions, describe your experience, negotiate offers, and ask smart questions.
