welcome to bookish English please don't forget to subscribe to our channel for more English stories fluency in English is something many people want I remember when I was a young student like you I wanted to speak English well I wanted to be fluent but I was shy and made many mistakes one day a teacher said to me you can be fluent if you practice every day this sentence changed my life life when you want something you must work for it fluency does not come in one day it is like planting a tree you put the

seed in the ground water it and give it sunshine every day you care for it and then one day the tree grows big and strong the same is true for fluency one day a student came to me she was very sad she said teacher I want to speak English but I always forget the words I smiled and saido not worry fluency is not about remembering all the words it is about practice she looked at me with hope in her eyes but how can I practice she asked I told her practice is everywhere you can practice

by talking to your friends by listening to stories by by singing songs you can practice every moment of the day I remember when I was in school I loved stories I would listen to them every night my teacher would read to us and I would repeat the words at first I was slow but with time I became faster I learned new words and my confidence grew another student asked me teacher is fluency only about speaking fast I said no fluency is about speaking clearly it is about making others understand you you do not have to

speak quickly you have to speak with confidence there was once a boy in my class who spoke very fast but no one could understand him I told him slow down speak clearly use simple words he listened and soon everyone could understand him he became more confident and enjoyed speaking in English fluency is like a journey you take one step at a time you do not rush you enjoy the process one day you look back and see how far you have come I have seen many students who were afraid to speak at first but with time

and practice they became fluent there is a secret to gaining fluency it is a simple secret the secret is to listen listen to others speak English listen to stories listen to songs listen to conversations the more you listen the more you learn I once knew a girl who loved music she would listen to English songs every day soon she started singing a long her fluency improved because she was listening and repeating another important thing is to not be afraid of mistakes mistakes are our best teachers I remember a student who was very afraid of making

mistakes she would not speak because she thought others would laugh at her I told her do not worry about mistakes every mistake is a lesson one day she decided to speak in class she made many mistakes but she did not stop she kept speaking after a while she became better she told me teacher I am not afraid anymore that was the day she started to become fluent fluency is also about thinking in English when you think in English you start to speak more naturally I once had a student who all always translated from his language

to English this made him slow and confused I told him try to think in English even when you are alone think in English he tried this and slowly he became more fluent there was another student who loved to talk he would talk about anything and everything but he had a problem he would start a sentence in English and then switch to his native language I told him try to stay in English even if you don't know a word try to explain it in English this helped him stay focused and soon he was speaking only in

English reading is another way to gain fluency when you read you see how sentences are formed you learn new words I remember when I was learning English I would read simple books every time I found a new word I would write it down then I would try to use it in a sentence this helped me remember the words and use them when I spoke one day a student came to me with a book she said teacher I read this book but I did not understand everything I told her that is okay the more you read

the more you will understand she continued to read every day after some time she came to me and said now I understand much more her fluency improved because she was reading and learning new things every day fluency is also about listening to yourself sometimes you need to record yourself speaking then listen to it see where you can improve I once had a student who did this every day she would record herself reading a story then she would listen to the recording and find areas where she could improve this practice made her more aware of her

speech and soon she became fluent practicing with a friend is another great way to gain fluency I had two students who were best friends they decided to speak only in English with each other every day they would have conversations in English helping each other with words they didn't know over time both of them became very fluent they learned from each other and enjoyed the process fluency also comes from using the language in real life situations when you go to the market try to speak in English when you are with friends try to use English Engish

the more you use the language the more fluent you become I had a student who worked in a shop he decided to speak only in English with his customers at first it was difficult but with time he became more confident and fluent fluency is also about being curious when you hear a new word don't ignore it find out what it means means and try to use it in your next conversation I remember a student who was very curious every time he heard a new word he would ask me what it meant then he would try

to use that word as much as possible his vocabulary grew and so did his fluency it is also important to have a goal ask yourself why do I want to be fluent in English when you have a clear goal you are more motivated I knew a student who wanted to travel to an English-speaking country this was her goal every day she practiced speaking English because she wanted to be ready for her trip her goal kept her motivated and she became fluent before she traveled I also tell my students to enjoy the process fluency does hases

not come overnight it takes time but if you enjoy the journey it becomes easier I once had a student who loved watching English movies he would watch one movie every night at first he used subtitles but after a while he started watching without them he enjoyed the movies and at the same time he was improving his fluency fluency is about repetition the more you repeat the better you become I remember a student who loved to repeat sentences he would hear something in class and then say it over and over again this helped him remember the

sentences and soon he was using them in his daily conversations speaking with different people also helps with fluency every person has a different way of speaking when you talk to different people you learn different styles of speaking I once had a student who was very shy he only spoke to me I encouraged him to speak to other students at first he was nervous but with time he became more comfortable he learned new ways of expressing himself and his fluency improved sometimes it is good good to practice speaking about topics you love when you talk about

something you enjoy you are more passionate and the words come more easily I had a student who loved football every day he would talk to me about football this helped him become more fluent because he was speaking about something he was excited about fluency also comes from understanding that it's okay to not know everything some sometimes you may not know a word and that is okay try to explain it in another way I had a student who always wanted to know the exact word for everything if he didn't know the word he would stop speaking

I told him if you don't know the word try to describe it this helped him keep the conversation going even when he didn't know the exact word a student once asked me teacher how long will it take to become fluent I told him it depends on how much you practice some people become fluent in a few months while for others it takes longer but the important thing is to keep going do not stop this student practiced every day and soon saw progress sometimes it is helpful to practice in front of a mirror when you see

yourself speaking you become more aware of your expressions and gestures I had a student who was very shy she did not like to speak in front of others I told her to practice in front of a mirror this helped her become more confident and soon she was speaking more fluently another student asked me teacher what should should I do if I forget a word while speaking I told him do not stop keep talking sometimes the word will come to you later if not use another word this helped him stay calm when speaking and he didn't

worry about forgetting words it is also important to take breaks sometimes your brain needs rest after a long day of practice it is good to relax I knew a student who practiced all the time she became very tired and started to feel frustrated I told her take a break relax come back tomorrow with a fresh mind after taking breaks she felt better and her fluency continued to improve fluency is also about using the language in creative ways you can write a short story sing a song or even make a video I had a student who

loved to write she would write short stories in English every day this helped her practice new words and sentences soon she started reading her stories aloud and her fluency improved another way to practice is by teaching others when you teach you learn even more I had a student who was very fluent she decided to help her friends who were not as fluent she would teach them new words and practice speaking with them this not only helped her friends but also made her even more fluent sometimes it helps to have a routine set a time every

day to practice speaking English I had a student who would practice every morning for 30 minutes this was his routine he followed it every day and soon he became more fluent a routine helps you stay disciplined and ensures that you practice regularly it is also important to be patient with yourself fluency takes time I had a student who was very impatient he wanted to be fluent quickly but when he did not see progress he became frustrated I told him be patient you are making progress even if it is slow he listened to me and continued

to practice over time he saw Improvement and became more confident fluency is not just about speaking it is also about listening when you listen carefully you learn how to respond I had a student who was a good listener he would listen carefully before he spoke this made his responses clear and thoughtful listening is a big part of becoming fluent another important thing is to stay positive learning a language can be challenging but a positive attitude makes it easier I had a student who was always positive even when she made mistakes she would smile and try

again this positive attitude helped her stay motivated and eventually become fluent fluency is also about being open to new experiences sometimes you may need to step out of your comfort zone I had a student who was very comfortable speaking in class but shy outside of class I encouraged her to speak to people outside of school she was nervous at first but with time she became more confident and fluent it is also helpful to learn from others who are fluent watch how they speak listen to their intonation and learn from their style I had a student

who admired a famous English speaker she would watch his videos and try to imitate his style this helped her improve her own fluency fluency is a mix of many things practice patience listening speaking and even making mistakes each part is important I once told my students fluency is like cooking a meal you need different ingredients and you need to mix them well this analogy helped them understand that every part of learning is important it is also important to celebrate small victories every time you learn a new word or speak without hesitation celebrate it I had

a student who would celebrate every small achievement this made her feel proud and motivated her to keep going celebrating small victories helps you see your progress and stay motivated one day a student asked me teacher what if I get stuck while speaking I told him it is okay to pause and think take a deep breath and then continue continue this advice helped him stay calm when he faced challenges while speaking he learned to manage his pauses and his fluency improved fluency is also about practicing what you learn if you learn a new word today try

to use it tomorrow I had a student who would learn a new word every day and then use it in a sentence this practice helped him remember the words and use them naturally in conversation another important thing is to learn from your surroundings sometimes you can learn English from signs posters and even menus I had a student who loved to explore the city every time he saw an English sign he would read it and try to understand it this helped him learn new words and phrases that he could use in conversation it is also helpful

to be curious about the culture behind the language English is spoken in many countries and each country has its own way of speaking I had a student who was very interested in British English he would watch British shows and learn about their culture this helped him understand different ways of speaking and made him more fluent fluency is not just about words it is also about body language when you speak your body language adds meaning to your words I had a student who was very good with body language even when he spoke simple sentences his body
