Do you feel nervous while speaking
English?
Do you wish you could speak fluently, without stopping or translating in your
head?
Well, you're not alone. This is one
of the most requested topics on our channel. And today, I'm going to break it
down for you — five simple steps to improve your spoken English,
build your confidence, and sharpen your communication skills.
Let’s go!
First,
A Real Talk…
I’ll be honest — I’m not perfect at
languages. But English has always been my thinking language. I might not
have a huge vocabulary, but I do have clarity of thought. That’s what
gives me the confidence to speak on camera.
So trust me when I say: you don’t
need to be a dictionary to speak good English.
You just need the right approach.
And that’s what I’m giving you today
— 5 clear, tested, practical steps.
🧠
Step 1: Make the Process Fun
Most people will tell you:
- “Watch English news.”
- “Read big grammar books.”
- “Start using difficult words like Shashi Tharoor.”
Nope. That doesn’t work for
everyone.
You need to enjoy the learning
process.
Here are three easy options. Pick the one you like most and stick with it for
just 15 minutes a day (or longer if you like).
Option
A: Watch Easy English Videos
Start with cartoons or kids'
shows — they use simple English that’s easy to understand. If you think
cartoons aren’t for you, try sports commentary (Rahul Dravid, Harsha
Bhogle, etc.) in English.
Option
B: Listen to Podcasts or Radio
If watching videos isn’t your thing,
try listening instead. Pick a podcast you enjoy — it helps improve your listening
and speaking rhythm.
Option
C: Read Simple English Stories
Pick up an ICSE English textbook
from class 10 — they’re full of short, simple stories. If you enjoy reading,
this is a great way to build sentence flow.
Whichever you choose, do it every
day for at least 15 minutes.
Consistency is the key.
🔍 Step 2: Observe the Language
You don’t need to memorize fancy
words.
What you need is to observe
how English sentences are formed.
Watch how people construct sentences. Notice the patterns. See
what’s different from how you speak.
Every time you find something new, repeat
it to yourself 10 times. Make it stick.
This is how you learn naturally,
just like a child learns language — by watching and copying.

Step 3: Drop the Ego
Here’s the harsh truth:
In India, people judge others for their English. That’s sad.
But remember:
If someone makes fun of your
English, they’re insecure about their own.
Let them laugh. Let them comment.
You focus on your growth.
Don’t be ashamed if you make
mistakes. Be proud that you’re learning something new.
Mistakes help you remember things for life.
Put your ego aside, stay
humble, and just keep practicing.
🌊 Step 4: Build Clarity of Thought
The real reason people get stuck
while speaking English isn’t vocabulary.
It’s because they don’t have clarity
of thought. Their mind is running in Hindi while trying to speak in
English. That delay causes fear.
What’s the solution?
👉 Meditation.
Yes, I know it sounds odd. But trust
me, meditation helps you slow down your mind, think clearly, and speak
confidently — not just in English, but in every part of life.

on BeerBiceps. It will change the way you think and speak.
💡 Step 5: Stop Giving English Too Much Power
English ≠ Intelligence.
This is a mindset problem left
behind by 200 years of British rule.
But let’s be real: in Germany, people speak German. In Japan, they speak
Japanese.
Why are we ashamed of speaking Hindi or Marathi or Tamil?
It’s okay if your English isn’t
perfect. Be proud of your native language.
And if you ever get stuck while speaking in English, it’s okay to switch to
Hindi and finish the sentence. That’s not weakness — that’s being real.
You don’t need to be perfect. You
just need to start.
Final
Words from Ranveer
If you really want to improve your
English:
- Make it a habit — practice 15 minutes daily
- Observe how real people speak
- Don’t be afraid to make mistakes
- Train your thoughts, not just your tongue
- Be proud of who you are, in any language
Till next time,
From Englopak — stay confident, stay grounded.
