Why Your English Stopped Improving | B2-C2 English Podcast

Описание: If you worry about making mistakes in English, I made this episode for you. In this episode of English Extras I break down the real reason why making mistakes in a second language feels so personal and so hard to shake.

It's not about your English level, your grammar, or your vocabulary. It's about your brain, your identity, and a survival system. If you're an intermediate or advanced English learner who feels stuck, self-conscious about speaking, or afraid of embarrassing yourself in English conversations, this episode will change the way you think about errors.

In this episode you'll learn:
❖ Why making mistakes in English feels so personal — and why your brain is actually working exactly as it should
❖ The neurological reason you cannot improve without making mistakes, and why "playing it safe" keeps you stuck at the same English level
❖ How I actually think as an English teacher when I hear my students make errors in speaking practice (it may surprise you)
❖ The practical mindset shifts that will help you speak English more confidently, recover from mistakes faster, and stop letting fear hold back your fluency
