Hello Madhu, the duration is different from learner to learner. But usually, students after understanding grammar and syntax, can get a basic level of proficiency in English within 6 weeks to 3 months.

It usually depends on the persons environment, time and process they follow. If they live in a english speaking environment college/office/home then it gets easier and faster. So it can take 6 months to 2 years or more

The duration to learn spoken English varies widely depending on factors like prior language exposure, learning intensity, and practice frequency. Research such as the Foreign Service Institute’s guidelines suggests that an average learner might need around 600 to 750 hours of study to reach a functional, intermediate level of proficiency. However, this is just a guideline—consistent daily practice, immersive experiences, and targeted feedback can accelerate progress. Equally important is a supportive, inclusive learning environment that encourages every voice, recognizing diverse learning needs and backgrounds. Ultimately, your journey is unique, and with commitment and effective strategies, you can see significant improvements within six to twelve months. read less
