Thanks for your message and I am glad that you wrote to me for ideas.

I remember when I was learning English, I felt uncomfortable about speaking. I could remember lots of words and knew grammar rules, but speaking was difficult. I now feel a lot more confident about speaking, so here are some ideas that I have taken from my own experience.

Don’t worry about making mistakes. Other people will still know your meaning and they probably won’t notice your mistakes.

Use every chance you get to speak. For example, it’s a good idea to use only English in class and not to speak to your classmates in your own language. At home, you should also try practicing new words and grammar learnt in class.

Think about extra speaking practice outside the classroom. You can join a conversation group, such as the chat groups in the study centre. They are free to join.

Practice speaking online. There are lots of websites where you can communicate with someone from all around the world.

I hope this helps you and please come to me if you have other problems.

Best wishes,

Eliza

The couple followed the GPS directions. Although they were traveling to an island, it didn’t_______them that they didn’t even cross a bridge or see the sea. When they arrived in Carpi, they went to the tourist office. They asked _______ they could go to the Blue Grotto, a well-known sea cave in Capri. Of course, the office worker there couldn’t _______ them. He thought they wanted to go to a _______ called the Blue Grotto for dinner.
