Start with one difficulty
What gets in the way when you speak?
Think about your most recent English conversation or recording. Choose one difficulty, then try the exercise that matches it.
This self-check helps you choose a practice route. It does not measure your English level or assign a CEFR score. Your answer stays in this page.
Your next practice
Give your next answer a frame
Try point → reason → example → close. Record one answer, then check whether every sentence supports your point.
Build a clear answerYour next practice
Retrieve one expression in a new situation
Choose an expression you understand. Hide the source and use it to explain something from your own day. Then check the meaning against the original.
Build active vocabularyYour next practice
Use a source you can check against
Retell a short paragraph, compare your recording with its key points, and retry one missing part. The guided session includes the source and feedback prompts.
Try a guided retellingYour next practice
Keep the frame and change the topic
Take a familiar answer structure into a new question. Plan three keywords, speak, and check whether your example actually answers that question.
Practise impromptu speakingExplore the routes yourself
- Build a clear answerI know my point, but my answer loses its order.
- Build active vocabularyI recognize expressions, but cannot use them when I speak.
- Try a guided retellingI finish speaking, but do not know what to fix.
- Practise impromptu speakingI can explain a prepared topic, but struggle with a new question.
After one attempt
Save your recording and write down one thing you changed. If a different difficulty becomes clearer, return here and choose another route. You can also use the topic bank for a fresh question or the 12-week plan for a longer routine.
