To Read🧔🏻♂️📖
- Pick Indian Express newspaper
- Read it every day with dictionary and pen in hand
- Underline the words you don't understand -> see meaning
(Can also use google provided you have great self control)
Then,
- Start a SubStack/blog of your own
- Here, write 10 sentences using the new words you learnt everyday
- Title this blog post as "Date" eg. Feb 9 2023
This will give you a personal collection to revise weekly
To Speak💯🗣️
- Speak these 10 sentences in a video shot from phone
- Make a YouTube channel and post this video privately
- Keep doing these everyday and evaluate yourself every 8 weeks
Also, watch (and learn) from these YouTube videos of Stanford Business School.
1. Make Body Language Superpower
2. Think Fast, Talk Smart
Recording your own videos will teach you about mistakes and these two YT videos above will teach you how to correct those mistakes.
To Write✍🏻📝
Writing/Typing is largely a function of clear thinking and speech.
Improving your reading and speaking will automatically improve your English writing
