As someone who lives on his own, I always speak to myself ... but only in my target language. That definitely helps a bit.
I've been learning English for a while. Honestly, I try to incorporate all of them into my daily routine because they are closely connected and complement each other, making my progress more noticeable. Admittedly, self-talk helped me to practice articulating my thoughts more clearly, allowing me to put my knowledge into practice, and gradually overcome mental blocks. Let's face it, this is something almost every language learner struggles with. As for listening and AI, both have played a significant role in improving my vocabulary and comprehension skills.
It's just pushing AI. Who paid for this video?
nooooo why are you promoting AI 😭😭😭
Vedio was fantastic.I'm learning deutch and that is being more complicated than my favourite English 😂😂😂
Just say no to AI.
I am learning English, and with limited resources i a bit immerse myself into many english contents everyday. I would like to listen to children's programs or interesting podcasts. I really agree with the first tip, starting with memorizing most common sentences!😆🌷
I’m learning English, and here are one of my favourite tips: read aloud the dictionary of the language you’re learning. That helps you with your pronunciation. If you stumble upon a word that you don’t know how to pronounce, you can look up its pronunciation and read example sentences below. Of course, the only way to become fluent is to speak with real people. Find one soon.

The main element of language learning is motivation.
I learnt Spanish and I've been learning English for 8 years. I watch videos on YT about everything in English, listen to radio station every night like BBC world service for example a and try to speak it everyday.
Great video! For an English-speaker who speaks Turkish or Turkce, I recommend learning about how suffixes are added to verbs in Turkish. And, if possible watch videos on the Turkish accent. My fellow Americans pronounce Ankara as Ahnk-kurah or Ahnk-kerah, but the Turkish capital is actually pronounced more closer to Ahn-kaarah.

Sometimes I shadow Peppa and George with Peppa Pig. I was wondering what the level of spoken English is in Peppa Pig?
