English Fluency And How To Get There With Speaking Practice

Hi there. In today’s English speaking practice podcast, I’m going to look at two different parts of English fluency. Did you know that there are two types of fluency? Mental and physical. We are going to explain both types of fluency, and  share with you some easy to do exercises that will help you improve  both mental and physical fluency.

I’m  often asked, what is being fluent in spoken English? What does it look  like? I’d say that it looks like someone who can join in on an everyday  English conversation with native English speakers. Where you can keep up  with the comprehension speed necessary to stay in the conversation. And  you can join in at any time to add your views. It’s getting your spoken  English fluency to a level where your speaking is on autopilot.

To  me, that’s what spoken English fluency looks like. A level of spoken  English where you are not consciously thinking about translation and how  to form words. Once you reach this level of proficiency with your  English language, you can really focus on expressing your ideas and the  content of what you want to say rather than the technical details of how  to say it.

So working on your English fluency, until your ability  to speak or write without hesitation or repetition, has to be a big  part of your English learning. And working on both types of fluency is  part of that. Mental fluency is the ability to think quickly and clearly  and recall vocabulary and phrases as you need them. While physical  fluency is the ability to move your mouth to achieve the correct sounds  in a natural and effortless way. You need to work on both to achieve  fluency.
