Why is Listening Training Important?

The Listening Trainer lets you experientially learn natural expressions and conversation flows by listening to conversations in realistic IT company business scenarios.

Practical Business Conversations

Each scenario is based on situations that could happen in real IT companies. Learn conversations for various roles including project management, development, and sales.

Detailed Explanations

Each conversation turn comes with explanations of intent and background, helping you understand why certain expressions are used and in what contexts.

2. Select a Scenario

Select "Listening" from the training menu to choose from various business scenarios. 28 types of scenarios are available, including:
