Change one rule of the world
Pick one rule of how the world works, change it, and talk through the consequences for two minutes.
Start practice
Goal
Speak for longer without stopping to search for words.
Fluency is the ability to keep going — to push through the gap where you would normally stop and search for a word. These exercises train exactly that, with drills that reward flow over speed and feedback that looks at your pauses, not just your grammar.
