It's very simple.
You open up AI, could be ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, whatever it is that you're using, and you ask it to roleplay a situation.
For example, you could say, pretend you're an Australian barista.
I'll order a coffee.
Correct me if I make mistakes.
And then you just start speaking.
You order a coffee, you respond to questions, you have a conversation, and you can do this for anything.
Any topic you want.
You could practice job interviews, small talk, conversations at work, chatting with friends, opening a bank account.
Anything you're likely to experience in real life.
Now, here's the really important part.
Most people will still use this incorrectly.
So, make sure you do these three things.
First, speak out loud.
Don't just type your answers.
Actually speak.
Even if it feels a bit weird at first.
Because fluency comes from speaking, not typing.
Second, keep your answers short.
Don't try and say everything perfectly in one long sentence.
