I give you a quick test/benchmark -- if you think you are making efforts to learn to speak English fluently, how many hours in the last month did you actually speak with your mouth?
If that number is not significant.. Your strategy is wrong.. You are lying to yourself.. Simple as that.
I see people searching for courses, books, apps, teachers…. Searching for this rule, that rule, this exception.. This and that…
I see people giving less priority to actual speaking activity with mouth.. The physical activity… I see people making excuses....
In reality it’s the Resistance of doing the actual work, facing difficulties, possibility of facing shame even
You can’t learn cycling by reading ‘how to cycle’, you really have to get on one and pedal.. So what if you fall a few times.. That’s still the best and fastest way to learn how to cycle.
Don’t waste time.. Get to the actual thing and move on.. Don’t go here and there.. Take the shortcut..
Obviously I am not against writing, listening etc but do them after you have done speaking for the day
Tools that enable speaking:
- Acefluency app
- aleenarais.com/whatsapp/
- cambly/engvarta/clapingo apps
- TalkEnglish app
Apply this learning to other areas of life too (i.e. don’t avoid the single most important activity)
After next month ask yourself the hours question again
