9.Become a confident speaker.How to improve your English speaking skills and make you able to communicate more easily and effectively?The following tips will help you to become a more confident speaker.Practice where you can and when you can.And practice is good-whether you speak to someone who is a native English speaker or not.
It's important to build up your confidence.If possible,use the simple sentence structure that you know is correct,so that you can concentrate on getting your message across.
Try to experiment with the English you know.Apply (应用) words and phrases you know to new situations.Native English speakers are likely to correct you if you use the wrong word.They usually don't mind if you use wrong grammar.
Try to respond to what people say to you.You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language.Respond to them in a natural way.
Never translate everything into your own language.It takes you much time and you'll find it difficult to find an English answer right away.You don't know how to do well.The more you want to act well,the more slowly you act.This will make you hesitant.
If you forget a word,do what native English speakers do all the time,and say things that‘fill'the conversation.This is better than remaining completely silent.Try using‘um',‘er',if you forget the word.
Don't speak too fast!It's important to use a natural rhythm (节奏) in speaking English,but if you speak too fast it will be difficult for people to understand you.
Try to relax when you speak,and you'll find that your mouth does most of the pronunciation work for you.Speak English at a normal speed.
Final tips:Try to become less hesitant.Don't be shy to speak-the more you do it,the more confident you'll become.Remember to be polite-use"please"and"thank you"if you ask someone to do something for you.
