2.📚 Step 1: Learn Basic English Words and Phrases

Start small. Begin with the most common English words that are useful in daily life:

English Word Meaning Hello Greeting Thank you Expression of gratitude Yes / No Affirmative / Negative Water Common noun Please Politeness

🔁 Practice Tip: Write each word, say it aloud, and use it in a simple sentence.

3.🗣️ Step 2: Focus on Speaking from Day One

Don’t wait until you’re fluent to speak. Use what you know:

• Say “Hello” and “Good morning” to friends or family.
• Record your voice and listen to pronunciation.
• Talk to yourself in English while doing daily tasks.

🎧 Use apps like Avatalks where you can chat with AI avatars for natural conversation practice.

4.🎯 Step 3: Learn Basic English Grammar

You don’t need to memorize all grammar rules. Focus on:

• Subject + Verb + Object structure (e.g., “I eat rice.”)
• Common tenses: Present, Past, and Future
• Basic sentence types: statements, questions, and commands

📘 Example:

• Statement: I go to school.
• Question: Do you like apples?
• Command: Please sit down.

5.📝 Step 4: Practice Daily with Easy Exercises

Consistency is key. Practice 15–30 minutes every day:

• Read short English stories
• Listen to slow podcasts (like ESLPod)
• Watch YouTube videos with subtitles
• Try Avatalks grammar lessons

You don’t need 3 hours. Even 10 minutes a day makes a difference.

6.🔡 Step 5: Master the Alphabet and Pronunciation

The English alphabet has 26 letters. Practice writing and sounding them:

Letter Sound Example A Apple B Ball C Cat D Dog E Elephant

Use pronunciation tools like Avatalks Character Tool to hear and repeat each letter.

7.🧩 Step 6: Build Vocabulary by Category

Group words into topics:

• 🏠 Home: chair, table, door, bed
• 🧍 People: man, woman, child, friend
• 🍎 Food: rice, water, apple, bread
• 🌍 Places: school, market, hospital

💡 Use Flashcards: Try digital ones like Anki or Quizlet.

8.🧠 Step 7: Think in English

Avoid translating in your head. Instead:

• Say simple thoughts like “I am tired.” or “It is hot.”
• Label objects in your home with English stickers
• Watch videos with English subtitles, then remove them

This shift will help you speak faster and more naturally.

9.👥 Step 8: Practice with Native or AI Speakers

Speaking with others is essential. But finding a teacher can be expensive. Try:

• AI language tutors like Avatalks
• Language exchange apps

Even 5 minutes of daily speaking can improve your fluency.
