Why You Understand English but Can’t Speak It (And How to Fix It) | EnglishWithBernice - Podcasts

Описание: Welcome back to EnglishWithBernice, your calm space to pause, breathe, and grow—both in English and in confidence.

In today’s episode, we talk about a frustration so many English learners share:
👉 “I understand almost everything, but I can’t speak.”

If you can follow movies, podcasts, and YouTube videos in English but freeze when it’s time to talk, this episode is for you. This doesn’t mean you’re bad at English. It means your listening (input) is strong, but your speaking (output) hasn’t been trained yet.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why understanding English doesn’t automatically lead to speaking
• The difference between input and output in language learning
• Why fear and perfectionism block your voice
• Simple speaking habits that actually build fluency
• How to practice speaking even without a partner

This episode is ideal for:
✔️ English learners who understand but can’t speak
✔️ Adults (18–40) improving English for work or life
✔️ Listeners who enjoy calm, reflective learning
✔️ B1–B2 learners building confidence and fluency

🎧 Best for listening while walking, commuting, or relaxing
🧠 Focus: English fluency, confidence, mindset
⏳ English level: Intermediate (B1–B2)

Remember: fluency doesn’t come from knowing more—it comes from using what you already know.
