What kind of conversation do you want to have in English? What is the situation you need to use English in? Who will you be conversing with and what will you be discussing?
If you want to be fluent you really need to listen. Therefore, find new ways to listen through friendships, podcasts, movies, and music. There are so many ways to listen to English now, thanks to the wide-reaching and ever-growing internet.
When you hear a new word that you are not familiar with, ask about it! Look it up in a dictionary, search up its meaning on the internet, ask a friend. When you consult several sources, you will have a deeper understanding of the word.
When you hear a word or phrase you like, use it several times until it sticks! Repetition will also help it feel natural.
Our motivation to learn language mostly comes with the desire to connect with other people. Having valuable friendships will be a huge motivator for you to learn English.
Use English daily and keep it fresh, use them as much as possible. Henceforth, do not be shy – even native English speakers make mistakes in day to day conversation. The more you use English, the more it will stick in your mind.
Always review what you learned a week, or even a month later. Review and repeat to keep memories strong and, again, to help it stick in your mind.
Most important of all, it is critically important to believe in yourself. As a human being, we all have the ability to learn a language and connect with others. Use English as a tool to connect with others and to improve your life.
