Tips for Speaking

[Krisi]

If opportunity doesn't knock build a door.

Be optimistic look for the opportunity in every difficulty.
Being positive in a negative situation is not naive. It is LEADERSHIP!

Good luck!

Thank you so much all of you. I am new in this forum and I want to improve my english. I didn't get new ideas, I know how to speak English but I don't have confidence to speak in front of my friends.

Even I am facing problem in searching job according to my wish. Please help me if anyone can.........

I have seen that the BEST way to learn English is by using the ASSIMILATION method. Ok How did you learn French? You learnt it by LISTENING and REPEATING. You didn't learn it by sitting in a classroom while someone did grammar on the board! You need to listen and practice saying the words out aloud.

Proficiency in English language speaking is very important. Once you have made the decision to learn English, the next step is to learn how to improve your English speaking online. To improve english speaking, there are many online services that offer different online learning courses. These online courses connect you with native speakers and with their help you can improve your conversation skills. It is very important to speak as often as possible with native speakers. With their help you will not only gain a greater level of fluency, but also become more confident in your own English skills.

Hi guys! Thank you all for wonderful tips! I think my worst enemy is my shyness. I know what words to use, how to use them but when it comes to actually talking I can't do anything. I talk so slow.

You need to increase your vocabulary to get a good speaking skill. It required regular practise. Internet can help you in this matter very well. So explore the web and learn for the related keywords everyday.

hello...
I won't elaborate in long way, I wanna say in short & sweet wards ..
1) initially we don't need any person, we can start up by talking ownself talk to yourself and reply in mind....
2) and start to think in English
3) Ask question to yourself and reply elaborately.

1. Use English in Your Daily Life as Much as Possible - It’s more important to have frequent contact with English than to have hours and hours of study. Using English for 10 minutes a day, every day, is better than studying for 1 hour only once a week.

Even if you don’t live in an English-speaking country, there are still many ways to do this!

Here are just a few suggestions for making English part of your daily life:

. Listen to English as you drive to work.
. Read the news online in English instead of in your native language.
. Practice thinking in English while you are doing housework or exercise.
. Read articles, listen to podcasts, and watch videos in English about topics you enjoy (this is important! You will make much more progress if you are having fun during the process).

2. Balance The Area of Language Learning -

. Reading
. Writing
. Speaking
. Listening
. Grammar
. Vocabulary

Many students make the error of focusing too much on one or two areas, and they end up being weak in the other areas. One tip is to dedicate one day per week to studying and practicing each area.

3. Get a Regular Speaking Partner Through a "Conversation Exchange" Website - You can’t just study English… you need to USE your English!

If you have nobody to speak with in daily life, you can find a speaking partner online through a “conversation exchange” website. On these websites, you can meet native English speakers who want to learn your native language – this way, you can both help each other learn and practice.

4. Practice Talking To Yourself - This is REALLY an excellent way to develop your fluency and build your confidence. There is no pressure to be perfect, and nobody else will hear your mistakes.

Imagine somebody is asking you the question. Then practice answering it by talking to yourself out loud.

Yes… it feels a little bit silly. But you can do it alone where no one will hear you, and it’s a great step to putting your English into practice.

I am agree with you perfectly.
I feel we must rely on our own and save energy and time.
Besides the Internet has some very good resources and we don't have to go class.
good luck

If we use the basic tips of speak English then I think English is not difficult to speak. These basic tips are below:
1. Increase your vocabulary daily by 5 new words you don't know
2. You need to feel before speak, mind who is doing, what is doing and with whom.
3. Don't translate into your native language before speak.
4. Think everything in English daily 15min in the morning and talk with your self
5 First, calm down to think about wordings you are going to choose and then speak slowly.

[sanjaySinha]

Hello,
The most important is your confidence in speaking English.If you have no confidence then you can't speak in front of anyone in any language.
Another you have to increase your vocabulary. So find the vocabulary words daily.
Talk with yourself in front of the mirror and speak aloud because when you speak aloud automatically it helps to increase your confidence.
You become a good speaker if you are a good listener.
Record your voice when you speaking English and cover your mistakes to listen to it.

Thanks

My Australian teacher of English gave me a way to practise speaking at home, alone and I think it is important because Speaking is the skill that we find most difficult to self-practise.

1- Get a recorder.
2- Prepare a presentation on any topic u like.
3- Record your speaking.
4- Listen to it again and again.
You will find out your mistakes and weak points.
(You will find your voice very cute )
5- Do the 4 steps above whenever you have time.
Does your speaking get better?

Thank you very much for sharing your tips to improuve our skills.

i agree your strategy to improve speaking

using a recorder programm with your voice is a very good way to correct and improve your speaking and pronunciation

i add another idea

you can listen a short story and repear it with your voice

good luck

[ahmedmorocco]

How to get a good speaking skill? It keeps long practise! No one can speak fluently in a flash . It needs time and how long depends on your ability and IQ.

learning anything take a time and patience, and English is no exception

but if you have ability, will and patience you will realise your goals quickly

Here are Tips To Improve Your Spoken English


Just Speak

Yes, Just speak. The best to improve your spoken English is you just speak, just speak in English wherever you go. Practice make man’s perfect. So just speak and keep practising. Take advantage of the lots of English speakers in your nearby areas such as your friends, your coworkers, classmates, employees and other places you visit. Join online community of learners on facebook or whatsapp. This will also help you to improve your spoken English.


Listen , hear and Read English

Most of the English learner read too much and listen too little. Watch movies, listen to music, the radio and to podcasts of English. Read books, magazines and blogs. You need to listen more and more of English. Listening will also help you improve your pronunciation and reduce your accent problem. When listening and reading, find new and interesting things, slang terms and synonyms. Learn and use phrases rather than single words.

Join English Speaking Classes

This will give you a timely and fixed schedule for your spoken English and also bring a positive change reflect in your spoken English.

Great correspondence comes in numerous structures and styles. No standard is ever an unchangeable reality and disrupting the guidelines can some of the time be the most ideal approach to express what is on your mind. You should make sense of what works best for you and build up your very own style.

[Haravi]

It takes time to learn to speak English or any other language. There are many tips for learning English. The most useful and easy tips I learned from teachers is to use regular works in your regular talks in home, school, playing, and in every thing you do. You start with a single word and then switch to small sentences. This is most useful tip I have personally tried and results are excellent. Try it!!! It works.

Great job man! you have shared great information.

Hi Everyone,
I'm not a native speaker and I learned speaking myself. It was a painstaking process but now I'm quite confident with it. Some natives often ask me if I studied abroad or traveled oversea a lot (I wished I could). Here are my tips:

Pronunciation: It is very important to speak the word correctly. When you learn a new word, invest a bit more time on its pronunciation, look at its phonetics, go to google to hear how it sounds and speak with Voice Recognition. If Google can detect your sound, It means your pronunciation is quite correct and easily understood.

Connect the sound to the picture: I'm confident with my decent pronunciation but many times, I was in situations where I didn't know how to form the sentence correctly and express it in English instantly. The reason was I had to translate my thought from my language into English. Unfortunately, under the pressure of time in communication, my translation didn't work. I ended up speaking broken English, no one understood me. My tip is when you learn a word, try to connect the sound to the picture, understand the word by its picture, instead of your local language. When you speak, create the picture in your mind and your mouth will recall the English sound. You will find your speaking is more understandable in many situations.

Practice speaking: The best way is to speak with natives and let them fix your mistakes. Unless you have an English boyfriend or girlfriend, it's quite impossible to communicate with natives every day. I went to some classes, paid a lot of money to meet them but eventually, we didn't have much interaction. I went to the English club in cafes but the conversations were quite awkward. It's quite frustrating to find natives partner and I don't find any app sounds native and interactive enough. So I made this English app: https://englishhero.app/ to help you practice any time and anywhere. You have chances to listen to various accents (from real people, not robot sound) and then speak in response. It is very interactive, like real conversations with natives. Also, it recognizes your voice and helps correct your pronunciation. No worries to find partners and wrong pronunciation. Enjoy your study!

I'm an ESL teacher and TOEFL, IELTS coach.

I've prepared many students for English speaking tests and here are a few tips:

Use a recorder and record your own voice. Listen to your pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary and see if you can detect any errors. One of the best ways of learning to speak better is to recognize your own mistakes.

Listen to English conversations daily by watching news in English, listening to English podcasts and English music.

Engage in active discussions such as debating, dialogues, conversations with a native speaker like a teacher or online tutor.

Learn useful English expressions and idioms to use in your conversations. Learning English is one thing, but to speak like a pro you must use expressions used by natives.

Keep practicing: the more you practice the faster you will learn.

Those are some of my tips for improving your English speaking skills
