English for programmers in the textbook by Booyya

English is the global language of innovation.

For IT professionals, it provides access to essential resources, simplifies working with modern tools and enhances competitiveness in the job market.

However, specialized courses can be quite costly in terms of both money and time.

The team behind Booyya, an online marketplace for English courses, in collaboration with levi9 and English language teachers with IT experience, has created an interactive English textbook for IT professionals designed for self-study.

Our goal is to provide a comprehensive theoretical foundation in the IT field, supported by a wealth of practical exercises to help you gain confidence in communicating in English in any work-related situation. All of this comes in a flexible self-study format, allowing you to learn English at your own pace without being tied to a fixed course schedule.

Let us tell you more about what we offer!

Lesson structure: materials and exercises

Let’s take a look at the components of a lesson using the example of the open vocabulary lesson Project Management Approaches.

1. Warm-up and introduction to new vocabulary

Flashcards and the exercise Answer the Questions are perfect for this task.

On one side of the interactive flashcard is a project management question and on the other side are possible answers. You can flip and shuffle the cards as many times as needed.

An exercise that matches words or phrases with their synonyms is effective for quickly reinforcing the newly learned vocabulary from the English textbook for programmers.

2. Learning the main content of the lesson

First, there is a reading task that introduces project management methods while also showcasing the use of previously learned professional terminology in context. Interactive elements and visual materials help clarify the different project management styles in IT and the distinctions between them.

Next, there’s a short video with a real-life conversation example about the same project management approaches, followed by a listening exercise. If listening isn’t your strong suit yet, a transcript of the audio is always provided, highlighting all the new vocabulary.

3. Practicing new knowledge

The final block is the most active and practical, consisting entirely of exercises. In the case of our demo lesson, this includes:

• A matching task that tests your listening or reading skills;
• A fill-in-the-blanks task that engages your memory, attention, and logic, while also allowing you to practice writing;
• An error correction exercise — a multifunctional practice for honing your skills and knowledge.

Each activity is accompanied not only by an automatic checking feature but also by a demonstration of the correct answers. However, this is not a shortcut for the lazy — on the contrary, we’ve added it to facilitate error correction, helping speed up progress.
