1. Warm Up with Listening (5 minutes)
Listening prepares your mind for English before you speak.
What to do:
• Listen to simple English videos or audio
• Focus on understanding the general meaning
• Do not worry about every word
2. Speak Simple Sentences Aloud (5 minutes)
Speaking aloud helps you become comfortable with English sounds.
What to do:
• Say simple sentences like “My name is…” or “I like…”
• Speak slowly and clearly
• Repeat sentences two or three times
3. Learn a Few New Words (5 minutes)
Small vocabulary growth adds up over time.
What to do:
• Learn 3–5 new common words
• Use them in short sentences
• Say the sentences aloud
4. Read a Short Paragraph Aloud (3–5 minutes)
Reading aloud improves pronunciation and confidence.
What to do:
• Read a short paragraph or dialogue
• Focus on clarity, not speed
• Repeat difficult lines
5. End with Simple Thinking in English (2–3 minutes)
Ending practice by thinking in English helps reduce translation.
What to do:
• Think about your day using simple English sentences
• Keep thoughts short and clear
• Do this calmly without pressure
