How to think directly in English (step by step)

One HUGE step towards fluency is learning how to think directly in English.

This will help you speak with fewer pauses and express yourself better!

But many students say...

• “It’s too hard!
• “I don’t know enough English words!”
• “I need to think in my native language and translate.”
• "I'm not advanced enough to do that."

Today I'm going to show you 4 simple steps to help you develop the skill of thinking in English, without translating from your native language. If you practice these steps, you will succeed and you'll see a big improvement in your English :-)

 

I hope you can see that you don’t need to be super advanced to learn to think in English – you can start today. Try one of the four steps this week.

Thinking in English is a very important skill for fluency, but you’ll need a lot of other skills, too – like a strong vocabulary, clear pronunciation, listening comprehension, and the ability to understand common phrasal verbs and idioms in English.
