English is considered the most widely spoken language in the world and is the standard mode of communication between partners, customers, teams and companies from different geographic locations. It affects every aspect of an IT professional’s work.

Speaking, pronunciation, and listening to English are important skills for telephone conversations, presentations, conferences, meetings, and negotiations. Without them, it is hardly possible to get an interview, to get a good order from abroad, or to present your idea.

Don’t forget about writing and reading skills. All programming languages and technical documentation include words of English origin, the understanding of which is simply necessary to create a quality product. It is also worth bearing in mind that the IT sphere is constantly changing, and it is important to be aware of all the trends and news, be able to perceive information from different sources, communicate in forums and chat rooms, which are mostly in a foreign language.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or an expert, a tester or a developer, a designer or a project manager. English language in general increases opportunity to become more productive, in-demand, get a high-paying job and not depend on your country of residence and other conditions.
