Putting yourself out there when you use your English is pretty scary sometimes. Sometimes, we are terrified about what other people think about our English abilities. The fear of speaking English can really hold you back!

Today I am going to share some tips with you to help you overcome your fear of speaking English and learning not to worry about being judged or criticised by other people.
In this episode, I talk about:
- Why the fear is totally normal
- How the judgement is unavoidable
- What boxers can teach you about speaking English
- Practical tips on how to reduce your fear
