01 The problem
Knowing English isn't the same as speaking confidently.

You can read the drawing, run the machine and spot the defect. Then the supervisor asks what happened on the night shift, and the sentence you had ready arrives a beat too late — so you say the shorter, smaller version instead.

That gap isn't knowledge. It's rehearsal. It closes the same way it closes for musicians and athletes: a little, out loud, every day.

02 The method

Twenty-five minutes. Every day.

One guided session a day through twelve stages, in four short steps. You don't choose what to study. The road map already knows. You just show up and speak.

Listen

Today's phrases, or a real speaker, and the situation they belong to.

Practise aloud

Shadow it until the rhythm stops feeling foreign.

Record

Say it in your own voice. This is the part that counts.

Read the report

How you came across, what to fix, your sentences rebuilt.

03 Inside the app

Everything you need to speak, not just study.

Open the app and your page is already waiting: today's session first, then the practice that fits it. Pick your profession and the scenarios, the vocabulary and the model answers change with you.

Workplace simulations

Talk it through before the shift — the handover, the permit, the safety stop, the first day in a new workshop.

Trade vocabulary

Torch, arc, root pass, weld bead: the words of your trade, heard and said in real sentences.

Grammar for the job

Short drills built from workshop sentences — the grammar you need to report, ask and confirm.

Your words

Every word you trip on comes back with its sound and meaning until it sticks.

Road map

Twelve stages, from your first day in the workshop to the hiring interview. You always know the next step.

Career readiness

See how completely you explain your work in English, measured against your trade's expectations.

There is more inside than we show here. Open it in the app

04 Shadow Studio

Borrow the rhythm of someone who already sounds right.

Five hundred and thirty-four hand-checked clips from your own trade, each with a synchronised transcript. Watch one with the words lighting up, shadow it a paragraph at a time, then say it without looking. When you do, it's yours.

  • Watch — the video stays on top and the transcript runs underneath in short paragraphs, with the word being said lit up.
  • Shadow — the clip loops on one paragraph. Tap a word to hear it, see the line in your own language and in IPA, then record.
  • Challenge — the same paragraph with less help each time, until you can say it unseen and then in your own words.

Shadow Studio lives in the app. Get the app

Report a near miss on the floor

I stopped the job because the gas line was leaking.

I told the supervisor straight away and we tagged the valve.

Nobody was hurt, and the permit is on hold until it has been checked.

  3. From memory
  4. Unseen
  5. In your words

Five rounds, each with less help, until the sentence is yours.

After every take

One screen. One word to fix.

Every report is kept, with the words that tripped you, so you pick up where you left off.

The library, Watch, Shadow and Challenge are in this app, on trade video. Translation and pronunciation are written by AI and need a connection. The report above is an example; yours is built from your own recording.

05 AI practice

Practise before the real conversation.

Talk for a minute about the job you are on, your trade or the handover you owe the next shift. The report tells you how you came across, fixes what you got wrong, rebuilds your sentences and gives you better words. Then the coach reads it to you.

  • Workshop simulations with the whole crew: HR, your supervisor, the tool room, materials and QA in one conversation, the way a real first day goes. Each character answers you out loud.
  • In every daily session: record yourself and the report comes back, judged against that day's task.
  • Anything written by AI is labelled as AI. It coaches you. It never pretends to be a person.

Rehearse it on your phone, out loud. Get the app

06 Progress

See yourself improve.

Not a percentage of a course. The same four things measured on the takes you actually recorded, round after round, so improvement is something you can point at.

  • A streak and a lit-up calendar for the habit itself — six days a week is the target, not seven.
  • Every report is kept: your Shadow history, every workshop simulation and interview attempt, and the words that keep coming back across sessions.
  • Words you stumbled on return on a spacing schedule until they stop being a stumble.

09 Who it's for

For the moment it's your turn to speak.

On the floor

You hear the instruction, then freeze when it's your turn to answer. Rehearse the report before you give it.

Before an interview

Answer the trade questions out loud, hear how you came across, and fix it before the day.

Moving abroad for work

Settle in faster: the induction, the handover, the permit and the paperwork conversations.

Ten trades

Welder, pipefitter, boilermaker, millwright, operator, instrumentation, electrician, HSE, NDT and process.

11 Questions

Before you download.

Is BE Mastery free?

Yes. The full twelve-stage programme, the Shadowing Studio, the AI coach, Welding Mastery and your progress are free today, with no card needed. A Premium plan is on its way; its price will be shown before anything is charged.

Do I need an account?

No. You can start straight away. Sign in with Apple, Google or email when you want your progress backed up — then it follows you between your iPhone and your Android phone.

What level do I need?

If you know the trade but freeze when you have to say it in English, you are the learner it was built for. A short check at the start places you, and a gentler Foundations stage is there if you need it.

Can I use it in my own language?

The guidance, menus and help are available in 15 languages, including French, Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic. The practice itself is in English.

Is it on iPhone and Android?

BE Mastery Welding is on Google Play now — the button at the top of this page opens it. The iPhone app is with Apple for review, and this page will carry that link the day it is approved. Sign in with the same account on both and your progress, words and reports come with you.

Who hears my recordings?

Your recordings are saved on your own device. To score a take, it is sent securely to our AI provider and not kept by us. Nothing you record leaves the phone unless a take is being scored.

Which trades is it for?

Ten refinery trades: welders, pipefitters, boilermakers, millwrights, refinery operators, instrumentation technicians, industrial electricians, HSE officers, NDT technicians and process engineers. Pick yours when you open the app and the scenarios, vocabulary and model answers follow it.

Is the certificate an English test?

No. It shows you completed the programme, with your name on it. It is not a level test.
