Finally spoke 5 straight minutes in today's "Everyday English" room! 🎉 Six months ago I couldn't finish one sentence without freezing. Consistency really does win.

Phrasal verb of the day: "brush up on" — to refresh or improve a skill. Try it: "I'm brushing up on my English before the interview." Reply with your own sentence and I'll give you gentle feedback 🙂

Interview tip: use STAR — Situation, Task, Action, Result. One sentence each. Practise it out loud in a voice room tonight, and you'll walk into the real interview already comfortable. 💪
