Fluent English Pro Anxiety when speaking English - How to reduce it and manage it
Ever felt that fear when you're about to speak a new language, especially in front of others?
So, in this episode of our podcast, David and Julian get real about that all too familiar feeling: language anxiety. They break down how it can hold you back, making you hesitant to practice and learn. But fear not, they're armed with some strategies to help you conquer those nerves. They chat about everything from the dread of public speaking to the inevitable slip-ups we all make when learning.
David and Julian start off by stressing the power of one-on-one chats to take the edge off public speaking. They're all about creating a safe space where mistakes are not just okay but encouraged! Then, they dig into the idea that patience is key – no, you won't become fluent overnight, and that's perfectly fine. They wrap things up by introducing the idea of using breath work to chill out those nerves and boost your language confidence.
Key takeaways:
- Get cozy with one-on-one chats to ease into speaking.
- Mistakes? Embrace them! They're your secret weapon to fluency.
- Slow and steady wins the language race – don't rush it.
- Need to chill out? Try some breath work to calm those pre-speech fears.
