Great tips to help someone in their English speaking. I’d say the most important tip is to practice to speaking and listening! Think about small children, a child learns a language first by listening and speaking - they make so many grammar mistakes when they’re younger which is perfectly normal but they don’t get scared to make those mistakes. So to everyone who feels like they can understand English but not speak it don’t be scared to make those mistakes because making mistakes is the only way to learn 🤗

Practice speaking English with a native speaker as far as possible, is the most effective way to be a fleunt English speaker. Reading different books and about different topics helps to enrich your vocabulary and have enough words to express oneself in various situations. Not to mention , it is necessary to be confident and try to speak without thinking of making mistakes.

I got a lot of pressure especially when you come from a country (Philippines) where its people consider english as their 2nd language and a lot can actually speak well. Every time I speak english I always stutter and I cannot formulate easily the words that should come out of my mouth. I am more confident in writing than speaking english. My english is not perfect but as long as the person understands what I am saying them I'm fine with it.

[@doremifasolatido-ro7zs]

Spot on! I'm from the P.I too and i feel ashamed to speak English in the public. & like what you have mentioned theres a lot of our kababayans who can speak the language fluently and when you speak you should be good in grammar otherwise you'll get embarrassed, frustrated and traumatized🤦🏼‍♀️meanwhile, we are on thesame boat, i cant easily/quickly formulate words to say when talking to someone else, i stuttered too even in my local dialect sometimes 😬. Honestly tho I'm feeling frustrated

[@Mkarim173]

You are doing a great job. Keep it up Mandy! I want to add one thing, any listening activity, be it a movie, a TV show or an audio book helps in acquiring speaking skill. Basically you have to create an environment in which a foreign language is used. We English Teachers believe in Communicative approach, which is the integration of four skills. If you try to teach a foreign language through grammar it will hamper spoken fluency.

Video brief: 1)Learn everything by topic: Create a notebook with different sections for various topics like friendship, relationships, health, environment, education, sports, and hobbies. Whenever you come across new words or phrases related to a specific topic, write them down in the relevant section of your notebook. 2)Write before you speak: Before engaging in a conversation, write down a few sentences about the topic you want to discuss. This helps you organize your thoughts, practice grammar and vocabulary, and have pre-made sentences or phrases ready to use during the conversation. 3)Prefabricated sentences: These are sentences that you create in advance and have memorized. By using the sentences and vocabulary you have learned, mix and match them to create new sentences during conversations. This allows you to speak more fluently and confidently. 4)Practice: Practice speaking on your own, even if you don't have a speaking partner. Talk to yourself, imagine different situations, describe things, or engage in dialogues. The more you practice speaking, the more comfortable and proficient you will become. It's important to note that practice and consistent effort are key to improving your speaking skills over time. By following these steps and dedicating time to practice, you can make significant progress in speaking English.
