Fluent English Pro
04/22/25 • 32 min
Have you ever felt a little insecure about your writing in English? Maybe you’re worried it won’t sound natural, or that people won’t get your message. Well, you're not alone! In this episode, I sit down with Jon Clemence, and we talk about how to make your writing better and more effective, no matter your level.
Jon shares a super simple but powerful writing framework that he uses to make his content really hit home. It all starts with a hook to grab attention, then keeping sentences short and sweet, and wrapping things up with one clear call to action. He also talks about how to connect with audiences from different cultures, especially when you're writing for a global audience.
We also talk about using AI as a tool in the writing process. Jon explains how he uses AI to organize ideas and brainstorm, but he stresses that it’s important not to let AI take over your thinking or your creativity. The key is using it to support your writing, not replace it.
Key Takeaways:
- Progress in writing often means being okay with imperfect first drafts
- Use short paragraphs and simple sentences to improve readability on screens.
- One strong message is more powerful than five scattered ones

Speaking quickly vs Speaking correctly?
Fluent English Pro
06/18/24 • 14 min
Struggling to speak English smoothly and accurately? Let's learn how to balance fluency and accuracy in your language skills!
In this episode, I discussed the challenge of speaking English well. Fluency means speaking easily and naturally, while accuracy means using correct grammar, pronunciation, and verb tenses. The problem? People often focus too much on one and forget the other. For example, you might be so worried about being perfect that you speak slowly and hesitate. Or you might talk really fast but make a lot of mistakes. Neither is ideal.
We discussed the importance of considering both fluency and accuracy, explored common challenges learners face, cleared up misconceptions about developing these skills, and offered strategies to improve your English.
Key Takeaways:
- Balancing fluency and accuracy is key to being an effective and professional communicator.
- Both skills should be developed together.
- Dive into grammar studies and get feedback to improve your accuracy.
- Online tools can be a big help, and setting realistic goals while finding a supportive environment can make a huge difference.

How to Sound More Confident in English
Fluent English Pro
08/27/24 • 16 min
Does speaking English make you nervous? You're not alone—let’s discover how to turn that nervousness into confidence.
In today’s episode, we break down what it really means to speak confidently in English. Many people assume that confidence comes from talking fast or using fancy words, but the reality is much simpler—it’s about being clear and easy to understand. We kick off by stressing the importance of regular practice. Confidence isn’t something that just happens; it’s a skill that builds over time, like any other.
To help build this confidence, we suggest focusing on expanding your vocabulary, especially with words and phrases that you’ll use in your job and how non-verbal cues like body language, tone of voice, and eye contact can significantly impact how confident you seem. It’s not just about the words you choose, but how you deliver them.
Key Takeaways:
Practice speaking English in low-pressure situations to build up your confidence.
Focus on understanding and responding to others, not just on what you’re going to say next.
Your mindset matters—believe that you can improve, and you will.

False Cognates That Could Ruin Your Business Deals
Fluent English Pro
04/29/25 • 17 min
Have you ever said something in English that sounded perfectly right, but people looked at you like you said something strange? What if the word you used wasn't actually wrong, it just didn't mean what you thought it did?
In this episode, I’m talking about something that trips up a lot of people, even advanced speakers — false friends. These are those sneaky words that look or sound just like words in your native language, but actually mean something totally different in English. If your first language is Spanish, you’ve probably run into these more than once.
I walk through a few common examples that can really throw you off if you're not careful. We talk about actual and actual, assist and asistir, fabric and fábrica, and a few others that cause confusion all the time. You’ll hear how easy it is to make mistakes with these, even in professional settings.
Key Takeaways:
- Double-check any word that looks familiar before using it.
- Don’t be afraid to ask for clarification in team settings.
- Miscommunication caused by false friends can lead to serious issues at work.

Sometimes It's OK to Break the Rules
Fluent English Pro
05/13/25 • 14 min
Have you ever stopped yourself mid-sentence in English because you weren’t sure if it was “correct”? What if I told you that sometimes, breaking the rules might help you speak better?
In this episode, I talk about why making mistakes when you speak English isn’t a big deal and why it’s sometimes even helpful. I explain how being fluent matters more than being perfect, especially in conversations. If you stop to fix every little error, you might lose your train of thought or make the conversation awkward.
I also share when accuracy is more important, like in emails or reports, and how tools like Grammarly can help you check your writing. The main idea is to focus on speaking clearly and naturally and worry less about being perfect. That’s how you really improve.
Key Takeaways:
- Work on both fluency and accuracy little by little
- Most mistakes go unnoticed in conversations, so don’t panic
- Writing gives you more time to fix things, so take advantage of that
