Hello Reader,

I know you want your English skills to get stronger., and I know you want to speak calmly and confidently on the CELPIP exam. (Right?)

If that matters to you, then I have an important word I want to offer you that will set you free!

FREQUENCY. (and I talk about it in this week's podcast.)

The best way I know for you to get stronger English skills and more confidence for the CELPIP is by you using your English more often each day.

Higher frequency of practice is what you're looking for.

That means the number of times you use your English with other people who only speak English - THAT is what you need more of.

Not hours of practice at a time.

Not massive groups of people, or you in front of massive groups of people using your English. That's not the right way to think about this.

Think frequency. The number of times you use your English during the day.

With this strategy, small matters.

Like 2 to 5 minutes at a time matters if you're stacking those times up, one after the other, multiple times during your day.

If you can go longer, that's great! But remember this: your objective is always frequency. Not one hour long session that you rarely can repeat again.

Make sense?

This week I made a podcast episode talking about this idea a little more, as well as two ideas to help you actually do it. You can listen to it right here.​

Here's what you'll get out of the episode:

• Encouragement to Increase your daily English practice frequency over lengthy sessions.
• That you need to work with your introvertedness - it's not a mistake! Small conversations can be just as impactful as large ones.
• How you can use props like photos or personal items to spark conversations and build language skills.
• And how to see everyday interactions as opportunities to practice English without overwhelming pressure.
• Remember, confidence grows with frequent, low-pressure English usage, even in brief exchanges.

Have an excellent week!
