In today’s episode, we’re diving into a challenge that can completely transform the way you speak English: learning to stop translating and start thinking directly in English.

If you’ve ever felt your brain doing gymnastics—first thinking in your language, then translating, then finally saying something in English—you know how exhausting it can be. Whether you’re a beginner, struggling through that tricky intermediate stage, or an advanced learner aiming to speak faster and more naturally, learning to think in English could be the game changer you’ve been waiting for.

We’ll talk about why translating slows you down, how to train your brain to respond directly in English, and give you a practical one-week challenge to start seeing results right away.
