If you're learning English, one of the most powerful actions you can take is to use the English you already have. Many newcomers to Canada make the common mistake of isolating themselves, which can hold back their language skills for years. Don't let fear of not understanding others keep you from interacting. Embrace conversations with native speakers, as this will help you pick up new words and phrases while boosting your confidence. Remember, engaging with others is essential for your growth, so step out of your comfort zone and connect with your community!

Takeaways:

• Using the English you already know regularly with native speakers strengthens your skills.
• Don't isolate yourself; engage with others to enhance your English language experience.
• Embrace mistakes while learning a new language; they are essential for growth and development.
• Feeling self-conscious about your English is common, but don’t let it hold you back.
• Active participation in community events can significantly improve your comfort with speaking English.
• Seek out opportunities for practice and connection to avoid making the common mistake of isolation.
