7 Common Myths About Learning English – Busted!

By EWM | Educare With Mohit

Many learners delay or give up on their English learning journey because of false beliefs and myths.

They think:

• "I’m too old to learn now"
• "My grammar is weak, so I can’t speak"
• "English is only for toppers or city people"

These are not facts. These are myths — and it’s time we break them.

At EWM, we help students of all ages, backgrounds, and confidence levels become fluent English speakers.

So let’s uncover 7 common myths about learning English, and give you the truth that will motivate you to start now.

Myth 1: I need perfect grammar before I can speak

Truth: You don’t need perfect grammar — you need practice.

Children speak before they learn grammar rules. You can too.

Speak now. Fix later. Practice builds fluency — not perfection.

Myth 2: I’m too old to start learning

Truth: Age is just a number.

At EWM, we’ve trained students aged 7 to 70.

Your brain can grow at any age if you’re willing to learn. You are not too late — you are right on time.

Myth 3: I can’t speak because I studied in Hindi medium

Truth: Your school background does not decide your future.

Some of the most fluent English speakers today were from small towns and Hindi-medium schools.

You can build fluency by building habits — and EWM teaches you how.

Myth 4: I must think in English to speak well

Truth: Thinking in English will come later. Start by translating and speaking slowly.

Don’t wait to change your thinking. Just speak what’s on your mind, even if it’s translated.

Myth 5: People will laugh if I make a mistake

Truth: People don’t care as much as you think.

And if someone laughs — let them. You are learning. You are growing.

Mistakes are proof that you're trying.

Myth 6: I need an expensive course or teacher

Truth: You need consistent practice, not costly programs.

Many learners improve by using:

• YouTube videos
• EWM’s practice sessions
• Free tools + reading habits

If you stay consistent, results will follow.

Myth 7: Speaking English means showing off

Truth: Speaking English is not a show — it’s a skill.

It helps in interviews, jobs, business, travel, and more.

You’re not showing off — you’re showing up for your future.

Final Thought from EWM

Don’t let these myths stop you.
Learning English is not about talent — it's about training.

Your journey begins when you say:
“Yes, I can. Yes, I will.”

So, break the myths. Start your growth. Speak with pride.
