10 Tips On How To Be Confident To Speak In English

Hi everyone !! Here I want to share some tips on How to be Confident To Speak in English 

FOR THE FIRST AND FOREMOST,

1. Read the language as much as possible.

 Here, I do not mean just textbooks and assigned readings!  I mean, read things that you understand and enjoy, and that you would pick up to read even if it were in your mother language.  If you like romance novels or science fiction, read romance novels or science fiction in English!  If you read the news, get the newspaper in English. If you like sports, read sports reports in English.

2. Surround yourself with that language.  

For a semester or so, all your radio and TV, music, videos and entertainment should be in your target language.  While you are mastering English, you should try as much as possible to wake up, work, study, play, relax, eat, drink, sleep, dream and make love in English

3. Do not try to translate from your mother language to your target language, or vice versa.

Not even the world’s greatest genius can master a language by translating. Force yourself to think in the target language, and translating will come naturally.  

4. Converse informally as much as possible in English with educated speakers of that language.

Learn educated vocabulary, grammar and conversation patterns

5. Ask helps from any native speaker

We need to try to look for other alternatives in order for us to enhance ourselves in English. Ask helps from the person who is mother language in English. They could correct us in case we are using the wrong grammar as we stated in sentences.

6. Get an English grammar guide and a verb-book.

But, use them only as references when you are stuck on what to write. Do not expect to learn English from them, because you will not.  I guarantee it. 

7. Learn to pay attention to the pronunciation in English 

Listen carefully to the pronunciation of the words when other people is speaking. This could help you to pronounce the words correctly and as well knowing the meaning.

8. Organize group conversation with native speaker

Find a mother tongue English in the chat room, learning English site and chat with them via Skype or other Internet voice services. There are a lot of people who just love to talk with you over the phone or online to help you learn. Or maybe you can offer to teach them a little bit of your language in return. That there is something the way everyone gains from this experience. If you are in a country or city that you do not have a chance to find a friend of English and the mother talk on the phone or the Internet is the next best thing

9. Having a dictionary

Keep a translation dictionary with you at all times to translate a certain word as you hear it. This keeps learning fresh and up to date.

10. Practice 

Always practice to gain confidence. Once you have the confidence, you can speak English fluently. For example, doing grammar exercises, playing words maze an so on.

This is one of my initiative to improve my English. In Clash Of Clans game, I join an international clan which use English to communicate to each other. 

Hopefully this entry can help you 
to become more CONFIDENT to speak in English.

GOOD LUCK !! =)
