My 30-Minute Daily Protocol (B2 → C1 Practice)If you can understand hours of English but still freeze the moment you need to speak (especially at work), this video is for you. I’m sharing the exact 30‑minute daily protocol I use to take B2/C1 learners off the intermediate plateau—and it’s built to make you produce English, not just consume it. I’ll walk you through a simple step-by-step framework that includes a fast “prime your brain” warm-up, a tight learning block (no endless videos), and a production phase that actually trains you for real professional speaking. I’ll also show you how to make this easier with AI—and why, if you finish your practice feeling relaxed, you probably did it wrong.
