Episode 96
If you had to choose between fluency and accuracy in English, which would you choose? Speaking without hesitation, or speaking without mistakes?
Many people would probably choose fluency - but it's a little more complicated than that!
In this episode, I share my ideas on
- the 'deeper' reasons why fluency is often the main goal
- why some mistakes are more important than others
- two things you can do if you can't correct your mistakes
Vocabulary notes
dig deeper = find the deeper reasons for something
filter out = not hear / ignore
iron out = eliminate
