Sound like a native vs. reaching a near-native level - what is the difference?

In this video, I give you five tips that lead to near-native fluency. In linguistics, the term near-native is used to describe speakers who have achieved such a level of proficiency that they can barely be distinguished from native speakers in everyday communication. But achieving a near-native fluency is different from sounding “like a native.” In the video, I also talk about this important distinction.

Thank you, dear Daniela, for your personal story. I absolutely agree with you about finding our own way. In most cases such problem as perfecsionism is a red line to continue study language. Greatful, Igor

Thank you for your thoughs, Daniela. I think that I always will sound like someone who don't speak English as a native. I'll be fine if I can be understood but that does not mean that I won't keep trying to get better with my pronunciation every day.

You don't have to sound like a native to be a successful and confident communicator. Reaching a native-like level is different from losing your accent completely. It's more about your overall fluency, confidence, body language, and how you make your conversation partners feel. It's also about intonation, and understanding local expressions and culture. This could be a lot of work, but it's definitely achievable.
