To speak English fluently, you need to communicate more!
Back when I was a university student, I faced challenges initiating conversations in English and overcoming the hesitation to speak. At some point, I realized that to speak freely, all I needed to do was engage in more conversations.
This realization led me to achieve a C2 level, relocate to Canada, and become a certified IELTS and CELPIP coach.
Do you want English to take you where you desire?
