Here are some tips to improve your spoken English.
1.
Whatever you have learnt or read in a
day, practice in front of the mirror. For a start, you can read something from
newspapers, English magazines, and books. Take a passage and read it aloud.
After you think your accent has improved, try reciting a poem in front of the
mirror. This will increase your confidence as well.
2.
Talk to your family members and
friends in English. You can also organize debates and speeches on a low level,
where everyone in your family or friend circle speaks on one topic for a few
minutes. It will help you get over the fear of making mistakes, as you will be
with your friends and family—your comfort zone.
3.
Listen to people who you think are
good English speakers. It will help you catch the skill better. You can also
watch their videos, listen to them online, or even in person. It can be anyone
from Barack Obama to your teacher in school. Find every opportunity to speak
English.
4.
You will meet people like you there
and it will help you realize that you are not the only person who isn’t good at
this subject. Also meeting different people will help you overcome your
complex. You can also join coaching classes, which will provide you
professional help in learning spoken English.
5.
Nothing is more beautiful than simplicity. So, instead
of using an ambiguous(含糊不清的) language with tough words, go for simple
words. Learning any new language is difficult and English is no exception.
Start simple and go with the flow. With time, you would learn bigger words too.
