How long before I can communicate fluently in English?
This is a question I often hear. Unfortunately the answer is it depends.
It depends on you and your approach.
#Fluency means being able to find the right words and explain what you want to say. You want to be able to speak on your conference calls without getting stuck. You want to be able to answer questions about your presentation without pausing and searching for the right words.
How do you get to that point?
✅Fluency is about having the confidence to speak even when you're not sure it's right. Let go of wanting to say everything perfectly
✅Understanding the differences between your language and English will help you speak more fluently: often you get stuck because you're trying to say things in the same way as in your own language
✅Get feedback from high level speakers: you are probably much better than you think
✅You need some kind of system for learning and remembering vocabulary: find what works for you
Fluency takes time, practice and the courage to speak even when you know what you're saying is not perfect.
