Stop Thinking. Start Speaking.
Active Audio offers various ways for you to engage with English-speaking content.
But instead of just consuming content, Active Audio gets you to talk about it by encouraging you to share your ideas, thoughts, and opinions with me.
Choose to focus on flow or accuracy as you develop your ability to speak freely.
Furthermore, you have the flexibility to select your the level of preparation and effort you wish to apply.
You might start by writing a text or preparing notes before you choose to speak freely. Over time, as your confidence and ability grows, you may find yourself needing less preparation, eventually speaking English spontaneously.
Start by Selecting your Approach
Each of the approaches below offers a choice of what to focus on when you leave me your Active Audio message.
Approach 1
Plan your message
When you prepare a written text to read out loud, you have time to think and consider what you'd like to say and how you'd like to say it. Your focus will likely be on accuracy, using specific vocabulary and correct grammar.
Approach 2
Prepare key points
Writing notes is more than just writing words down. It's about choosing your words carefully and making sure they sound natural when spoken. Notes will allow for a guided yet natural message.
Approach 3
Speak
freely
Speaking freely is the ultimate way to practice your ability to flow. Use your Active English to leave me an audio message that aims to be structured, specific, and clear. However, it doesn't mean it needs perfection! It's should reflect you.
