Obstacles in English Speaking

1. Lack of Comfort:

Speaking English feels awkward or unnatural for many.


2. Expression Barrier:

Non-English speakers often feel like they’re “acting” rather than speaking naturally.


3. Formal Nature:

Since English is mainly used for writing, speaking skills don’t develop as much.


4. Lack of Necessity:

Many people prefer their mother tongue and don’t feel the daily need to use English.


5. Vocabulary & Grammar Pressure:

The wide range of vocabulary and complex grammar rules make it challenging.


6. Fear of Mistakes:

The fear of being judged stops people from trying to speak.

7. Lack of Environment:

Without regular English conversation, confidence cannot grow.


8. Emotional Resistance:

Many people have still not accepted English wholeheartedly. It may sound strange but it’s true - they feel English is like a stepmother who can never take the place of their real mother, their mother tongue.

My Personal Journey

From a Village Student to a Global Educator 

I was born and brought up in a village, where education was mostly in the vernacular medium.

Speaking English seemed like a distant dream. I had no English environment, no exposure, and no confidence.

But one thing I always did was - act while speaking English.

Yes! I used to pretend as if I were performing on stage.

That acting slowly turned into confidence, and that confidence became my attitude.

Today, I feel proud to serve as a Coordinator in an International Educational Institute, where English is the primary language of communication.

My journey is living proof that background doesn’t decide your destiny - your mindset does.

If I could overcome the fear of English, you can too.

All it takes is practice, patience, and the courage to start - no matter how imperfectly.

✨

Final Thoughts

English is not a status symbol - it’s a skill.

And every skill can be learned, practiced, and mastered.

Don’t let fear stop you from speaking.

Remember - no one will put you in jail if you go wrong! 

Enjoy your English journey. 

Speak with heart, even if your grammar isn’t perfect.

Slowly and steadily, your words will find their rhythm, and your voice will find its power.

All the best! 🌟

Hope my practical experience helps you overcome your fear and speak English with confidence.

From the Desk of the Author

Every time I write, I don’t write just to express - I write to connect.

English once used to frighten me, but today, it has become my bridge to reach minds and hearts across the world.

My journey from a small village classroom to becoming a Coordinator in an International Educational Institute has taught me one golden rule -

No dream is too big when your attitude is positive and your efforts are consistent.

If my words can inspire even one person to overcome fear and speak with confidence, I feel my purpose as an educator and writer is fulfilled.

With warmth and gratitude,
