I’ve been using and recommending to my students the “Bold Voice” app… give it a try!

YouTube. Videos about things you like. You'll get popular phrases, vocabulary and slang. You won't get bored, you don't need to carve out learning time or concentration. You can listen to audio-focused videos while doing other stuff. You can learn new things if you watch the right videos. The only downside is that you won't practice speaking or writing.

Hey! I was in the same situation as you—I could understand English but struggled with fluency, especially with slang. I tried a few options, including Cambly, but what really worked for me was an AI-powered app called SpeakA. It lets you practice real conversations with AI, and it’s super helpful because you can chat anytime, about different topics, and even get explanations when you don’t understand something. It helped me a lot with my fluency and confidence, so I definitely recommend giving it a try!

I like to use LingQ to increase my vocabulary and learn new slangs, I import youtube videos and listen to them and mark all the words/slangs that I don’t know to review later, the app has a flashcards feature for that. I’ve been using for 200 days and it really helped me.

# Hey! For fun and practical improvement, I’d recommend Duolingo—it turns learning into bite-sized games and feels less like “studying.” Pair that with shadowing YouTube videos (repeat aloud what creators say in vlogs or tutorials). Mimicking accents/slang this way helps you absorb natural speech patterns without stressing over grammar rules. Chambly’s great for conversation practice, but combining free tools like these might save you money while building confidence. Consistency > perfection—you’ve got this! 😊
