33 Ways To Speak Better English - All Groups

Most students I meet say that they want to improve their speaking and complain that they don't get enough opportunities to practise. Some students believe that they need to do lessons to improve their speaking and feel frustrated when they don't always have the time to do this. However, at the risk of doing myself out of a job, there are many things that you can do without the aid of a teacher that can help you improve your speaking. The article in the link below presents 33 tips on how to improve your speaking that you can do on your own. Many of these we have talked about in class, such as paying attention to pronunciation (especially word and sentence stress, vowel sounds and the use of the schwa /ə/), learning phrasal verbs and collocations and how to "chunk" language as well as activities such as reading out loud and recording yourself. So will you take up the challenge? Try a different one of these for 15 minutes each day and monitor the difference!
