Speaking exercise

I am 26 and I plan go to another country before I was 30 so I need learn English.
I usually travel a lot by myself.
Maybe the US because I have friends in here.
I want to work there but it is difficult to me so I try to study.
Bachelor degree

in college I’m learn design but I’m doing some business for company.
our company is a social media company so we need to do support for international company like Nike / Adidas.

The designer is famous that is the most important thing about the shoe and the Adidas has very little supply so people hard to buy the shoe so it is super expensive
They stand out of shop for 2 days only for 1 t-shirt

I know a very simple words and I speak very simple sentences and I want to talk deep more longer and because I work for international companies so we have some interviews with shoes designer so I need to prepare the questions and my colleague will translate and interview the designer but if I have a good English level I can do this because the questions is for me.
I think listen is ok I can understand you basically but the talk I can’t know like had or have / did or do / grammar.
I can’t use the grammar in the right work so people can misunderstand me
I need more professional in my work, it is the most difficult thing to me.
Mostly for work right now. After maybe I need to take a test to study abroad.
