Developing Fluency and Accuracy in Speaking and Writing

One important aspect highlighted in the podcast is the viewer's question about developing the skill to speak and write more accurately while feeling spontaneous. The podcast emphasizes the difference between practicing and performing. During practice sessions, whether alone or with a teacher, the focus should be on accuracy, paying attention to grammar rules and word order. This could involve recording oneself, speaking in front of a mirror, or creating scripts for uncomfortable situations like job interviews. On the other hand, when performing in real-world situations such as conversations, job interviews, or while traveling, the focus should shift to connecting with the other person rather than perfect accuracy. Making mistakes is acceptable in these situations as the goal is effective communication.
