Strategy: Journaling in English

One strategy to think in English and stop translating in your head is to journal in English. Spending just 10 minutes a day journaling in English can be extremely valuable for your well-being and help you build a stronger mindset. It also allows you to practice translating your thoughts into written English, bringing you closer to the process of forming a thought and expressing it in English words. Journaling in English can have a significant impact on fluency and the ability to think in English, as it helps you overcome the constant need to translate in your head.
