3 Tips for Lifelong English Fluency

Fluency in English - dominating the four skill areas (reading, writing, speaking, and listening) should be your ultimate language goal.

It is not a short-term goal, but a lifelong project.

Are you going to invest the time and energy into learning English to just stop one day? I hope not!

Follow these 3 Tips for Lifelong English Fluency

1. Don't equate fluency with perfection.
If you can communicate in English and understand what is said in response with minimal mistakes, you have achieved English fluency.

Even native speakers are not perfect speakers of English. We are all human and have our limits.

Aim for less errors to improve both your accuracy and fluency in the language. Forget being perfect. Nobody is!

2. Measure your progress and celebrate your victories!
Do you remember when you first started studying English?

Look where you are today! Can you measure your progress through the years? Was there a particular goal you achieved?

Did you ace the TOEFL or IELTS?

As in other personal projects, it is particuarly important to mark your improvement in English. Don't forget to celebrate your goals once achieved!

3. Asses your progress and make adjustments.
Closely related to #2, you need to analyze your improvements and make any necessary adjustments.

Are you behind schedule? Do you want to be better able to use phrasal verbs? Do you need a better grasp of business idioms at the office?

Focus on the area where you need the most improvement. Listen to podcasts. Take classes with a native American English professor. Practice writing.

The most important message is to ACT. Don't standstill.

For lifelong fluency in a language, you must continue to learn and grow.

Challenge your abilities and you will become fluent faster than you expected.
