Ep175. ft. Rachel Tobol - The Mindset Shift Every English Learner Needs (Part 2)


Listen Later

In Part 2, we go deeper—from mindset into daily practice and identity. Rachel and I explore concrete strategies that actually work: journaling, mirror practice, immersive habits, and low-pressure speaking environments. We talk about why learning in the country where the language is spoken accelerates growth, how informal spaces like dance or community activities build fluency faster than textbooks, and why progress looks messy before it looks fluent. This episode also dives into multilingual identity—how different languages reshape who we are—and why accepting plateaus is part of becoming a confident speaker.
