It's very difficult to do that. I am both Swedish and hard of hearing. I don't discover a persons mistake when he talks because I try to concentrate on what he says.

If I go to the pizzeria where I live I should never correct the pizza makers if they say something wrong if it doesn't make me laught.

Fluency is the ability to understand quickly and easily what somebody says. AJ hoge have written many articles on that topic. www.effortlessenglish.com

I will never be fluent in English.

Here is the definiton of fluency by A.J Hoge

What is the most important English skill? What skill must you have to communicate well?
Obviously, number 1 is Fluency. What is fluency? Fluency is the ability to speak (and understand)
English quickly and easily... WITHOUT translation. Fluency means you can talk easily with native
speakers-- they easily understand you, and you easily understand them. In fact, you speak and understand instantly.
Fluency is your most important English goal.
The research is clear-- there is only ONE way to get fluency. You do not get fluency by reading textbooks.
You do not get fluency by going to English schools. You do not get fluency by studying grammar rules.

You need to learn what sounds right and what sounds wrong. You can only do that if you listen to a lot of English. If you don't listen to English on a daily basis you won't be able to know what 'sounds good' and what doesn't. Most people try to find a short cut to learning English. They create sentences and phrases they have never heard before and wonder why those phrases are wrong.
