The single best preparation for an English interview is a realistic mock interview. Practicing out loud under pressure — with feedback — is what turns knowledge into performance. Here's how to run mock interviews that actually help.
Make it realistic
Practice out loud, ideally with someone playing the interviewer, in conditions close to the real thing. Silent preparation builds recognition, not performance — you have to actually speak the answers under a little pressure.
Get specific feedback
The value of a mock interview is the feedback: what was unclear, where you rambled, which answers landed. A coach or knowledgeable partner who can pinpoint this accelerates your improvement enormously.
Practice, review, repeat
