Anyone who has studied a foreign language knows how difficult it is to become really fluent.The way a language is spoken in a classroom is often different that the more informal style of speaking used in everyday life. There are many idioms and slang terms to become familiar with.Seeking opportunities to actively use language is very important to reach the goal of fluency .
what about your own language ?
you are very good at languages.That is obvious,because your already speak one language very well and if you can learn and speak one or more other languages.
But did you ever ask yourself :((How did I learn my own language?))
In fact you never really learned it at all you just started speaking it.One day when you were about two or three years old you started speaking you language. A few word at first,not full sentences but you spoke. And very soon you made progress without even thinking about it .It was like magic!
But it was not magic.It was the result of hearing .for two to three years before you spoke

Thank you so much for taking the time and comment on my post.

You should know that the your first, native language is acquired through a cultural transmission. In other words, you can speak Arabic fluently just because you acquired it when you were a child.

However, it doesn't apply to the second language. A second language is taught, and studied. If I asked to speak Japanese very fluently... you can't just do it overnight. First, you'll need to learn the basics, then sentences, and so on until you pick up some language skills in Japanese.

English, for us, second language learners, is just the same thing.

I couldn’t agree more about the sincerity of the language, but as Mr. Ahmed said you cannot be fluent in a second language without the knowledge of the basics that lie behind it.

As an example, look at the Mexican & Spanish people that were deployed to US in early 70’s they grasp the language after two to three years by adapting to the environment without any proper education. They can speak English & the accent nearly perfect, but when it comes to Grammar you will discover that education is the most important element in any second language.

From my perspective I agree with one thing you said & that is speaking English in daily bases outside the education facilities is totally different than containing the knowledge in academic facility. For me I enjoy both. Sorry for interrupting, the idea of the subject hit my interst on the topic.

It usually boils down to what you're looking for when studying a second language. For me, personally, I'm looking to widen my scope in every walk of life. Right off the bat, I was learning English academically and English in speaking/communication aspect.

Yes, utilizing the correct Grammar is the most essential thing in language learning. However; relying and sticking yourself in Grammar only will result for lacking the skills of reading, writing and speaking and also your listening skills.

I think I got an idea or two for my next episode, thank you guys.

Great job !!! i like your enthusiasm!!

and please allow me to interpret :) . Based on my experience being fluent in a second language is kind of hard (no doubt) , and it's highly influenced by the teachers who have taught us through out the early years of school,specially when it comes to accent lol... When it comes to improving your language i highly recommend READING , yes reading !!! it was a great help for me and i am sure its gonna be for you guys... I never took any proper training and I don't think school has to do anything with it either, Its all my own effort , if you want to learn you will have to explore , read , listen and that of course need a lot of dedication from your side. So study hard and good luck everybody :)

You're totally right about learning a second language. Actually, 80% of English is learned by yourself and the rest is just by the teacher . He or she just opens the door , and you only have to get in.

Like I mentioned in the podcast, reading is an important thing when one wants to develop his or her language.
