<p>Hi.</p><p>Don't worry — this is a very common situation, and the reason your English isn't improving usually isn't because you lack ability, but because of how you're practicing it. Let's break it down carefully:</p><p>Lack of Active Practice</p><p data-start="256" data-end="346">Reading or watching English isn't enough. Passive input alone won't make you fluent.</p><p data-start="349" data-end="447">Solution: Speak, write, and use English every day. Even talking to yourself in English counts.</p><p>Thinking in Your Native Language</p><p data-start="500" data-end="615">If you always translate from your native language, your brain slows down, and you struggle to form sentences.</p><p data-start="618" data-end="730">Solution: Start thinking in English for small things, like describing your day, your surroundings, or plans.</p><p>Fear of Mistakes</p><p data-start="767" data-end="863">Many people don't speak because they are afraid of making errors. This blocks improvement.</p><p data-start="866" data-end="1010">Solution: Accept mistakes as part of learning. Record yourself, listen, and correct gradually. Confidence is more important than perfection.</p><p>Limited Vocabulary in Context</p><p data-start="1060" data-end="1165">Memorizing word lists doesn't help much. Knowing how to use words in real sentences is what counts.</p><p data-start="1168" data-end="1288">Solution: Learn phrases instead of isolated words. For example, “I am interested in…” or “Could you explain…? ”</p><p>No Feedback</p><p data-start="1320" data-end="1390">Practicing alone without correction means mistakes get repeated.</p><p data-start="1393" data-end="1560">Solution: Use apps, online tutors, or AI like ChatGPT to practice speaking and get corrections. Even recording yourself and comparing to native speakers helps.</p><p>Lack of Consistency</p><p data-start="1600" data-end="1642">Sporadic learning doesn't build fluency.</p><p data-start="1645" data-end="1763">Solution: Make a daily 20–30 minute routine for speaking, listening, and reading. Consistency beats intensity.</p><p>Focusing on Grammar Instead of Communication</p><p data-start="1828" data-end="1865">Overthinking grammar kills fluency.</p><p data-start="1868" data-end="1953">Solution: Focus on clear communication first, then improve grammar gradually.</p>
