Deep dives
Surround yourself with English
To start thinking in English and speaking confidently, immerse yourself in English-speaking environments. Watch movies, listen to music, and read books in English to expose yourself to the language. Surrounding yourself with English helps improve language skills and facilitates thinking in English.
Speak out loud
Practice speaking English out loud to become more comfortable with thinking in English. Describe your environment, situations, or simply talk to yourself in English. Speaking out loud forces you to organize thoughts in English and develop confidence in speaking.
Use images and context clues
Connect English words with their meanings by using images or creating flashcards. This activates a different side of the brain and helps in remembering words. Additionally, when encountering unfamiliar words or expressions, try to understand their meanings based on the context in which they are used instead of relying on translations.
