Think in English, Stop Translating: for Automatic Fluency | shadowing english speaking practice

[00:00:00]Do you translate every English sentence into your language before you speak?

[00:00:06]Does your brain search for words while the other person waits? That process is slow and exhausting, and it stops you from speaking fluently. The secret to fluency is simple. Think in English.

[00:00:22]When you think directly in English, you stop translating. Words come out faster.

[00:00:30]>> [snorts] >> You speak without hesitation. Today, you will train your brain to think in English with 150 natural sentences, from simple thoughts to deep reflections.
