“A tree can blossom even when withered, but if people don’t progress, they’re no different from animals.” Do you want to improve your English communication skills but are busy with work and life? Don’t worry, this article will share a “divine” secret to help you improve your English speaking skills in just 5 days!
Grasping the Principles: From Communication to Fluency
1. Communication is Key:
You don’t need to “know it all” grammar and vocabulary like a “language saint” to communicate. Focus on communicating naturally, “easy to understand, easy to remember, easy to speak.” Take the example of “Learning English like a child” – we learn to speak before we learn grammar.
2. The 80/20 Rule:
In reality, only 20% of basic vocabulary and grammar helps you communicate effectively in 80% of situations. English language expert – Professor Nguyen Van A in the book “English Communication For Busy People” affirmed this.
3. Practice is King:
Imagine you want to learn to swim but only read books about swimming techniques. The result? You’ll be “gasping for air” without knowing how to swim. Similarly, learning English also requires practice. “Swim” in the “stream” of English by speaking, listening, reading, and writing regularly.
