We can learn English both by reading and listening too. But the most important thing is to practice whatever you learn from the beginning.

I assure you to mould my candidates into best version of themselves.

To be honest, no . If you want to speak in public , you have to do practice by speaking.

Reading and listening are also important factors to develop the language skills. Along with that speaking and writing is essential too. You can not just rely solely upon reading and listening. You need to speak up to excel in English.

Very difficult question to answer, because we don't know at what level one is, the heights of perfection that one is desiring, is to just enable one to communicate, or to create an impact on the world ???? I would summarise it this way - the fisherman living by the sea since childhood, will beat you in swimming - no matter how much rules and techniques you have learned through books and computers, ironically he has the same knowledge and skills - but he acquired it through his living by the seaside. So your perfection will come only by a lot of reading, the secret is read, read and read, polish it with language skills and grammar rules. Don't do this by yourself, please choose a good tutor to guide you through it. read less
