Go Trek

This course focuses on teaching practical English that can be used in professional settings. It was created by native speakers of English who have work experience in a variety of fields.

We aim to help you build a strong foundation in business English by providing opportunities for daily practice. We've researched current standards for business English and consulted business professionals living in the United States in order to make sure that you are learning language that's relevant in a variety of professional contexts.

The simultaneous interpreter and business English advisor, Eriko Sekiya, took part in developing the coursework, making sure the materials are relevant and well-rounded.

"I can read emails in English,
but when it comes time to write a response, I freeze, because I don't know what to write."

The reason you can't express yourself when the need arises is due to a lack of practice and output.

With HiNative Trek, you can learn phrases used in actual situations from the American business scene and finally master "English for the workplace".
Daily practice is everything, and Trek is here to support you!
