Head of Product: Why should we delay the launch?

"Maybe we can wait... two weeks? Because in the testing, the users no finish the onboarding."

I recommend we delay the launch by two weeks. In testing, most users couldn't finish onboarding.

English for design, taught by a designer

I created Fluent by Design to help UX and Product designers speak English with confidence at work.

Every session uses real design topics, so you practice the English you need.

Learn by doing, not memorizing

You don't learn English by memorizing grammar. You learn it by doing. In every session, you do a real design task: pitch an idea, give feedback or run a user interview.

It's English designed for designers: practical, relevant, and immediately useful.

100% online, from anywhere

All sessions are live and online, so you can join from anywhere.

Study with the tools you already know

Real UX tools. Real communication practice. In Fluent by Design sessions, we use FigJam, Figma, and Miro. These are the same tools you use at work. So the English you learn is always connected to your real job.

What my students say

"I became more aware of sentence structures and how to express myself better. After just the first lesson, I felt encouraged to give a real-life presentation about my work. I definitely recommend. Dylan is a very attentive teacher."

Laís,Senior Product Designer, Paris

"We touched on real issues from my work, we could talk in terms of advanced UX, and we used Figjam, so I felt comfortable and the material was engaging. If you want to express something creative or more technical, you need to learn with someone who knows what you're talking about and can teach you how to improve from that perspective."

Daniela,Senior Product Designer, Barcelona
