In an embodiment, a method includes presenting, on a display, sample text in a given language to a user. The method further includes recording eye fixation times for each word of the sample text for the user and recording saccade times between each pair of fixations of the sample text. The method further includes comparing features of the gaze pattern of the user to features of a gaze pattern of a plurality of training readers. Each training reader (e.g., training user) has a known native language. The method further generates a probability of at least one an estimated native language of the user based on the results of the comparison.
