All course materials were checked by multiple
American native speakers of English working in Tech.

We've made a course that's more applicable and easy to continue than ever before, and we made it specifically for people working in IT and Tech. American native speakers of English checked each problem and made sure that every situation and phrase is as natural and real-to-life as possible.

Problems grow more difficult as the week progresses.
HiNative Trek provides you with meaningful English education that doesn't take more than 10 minutes a day.

Students post answers to problems every day, Monday through Friday. Problems follow along with monthly themes designed around common situations found in the Tech industry. Some days will only involve a simple one line translation, whereas others will involve reading and responding to graphs, responding verbally to audio messages, and a wide variety of other styles of problems. By increasing your output in various ways, this helps new phrases and vocabulary stick in your mind for easy access later on.
