Tips to Improve English

Are you looking for Tips to Improve English? Read the following aloud:

1. Think in English
 
What happens if English is your second language and you have to hold a Conversation in English? There is a likelihood that while framing sentences you'll think of the right words in your native language. STOP THINKING IN YOUR MOTHER TONGUE. Your THOUGHTS must be formed only in the ENGLISH language. 




2. The idea of Communication

When you speak English, always remember it is a means of communication and not a test of language. 

The smile itself communicates the message of happiness. You might not even have to hunt for an advanced level of Vocabulary for the same. So, to speak English fluently, consider the language as a medium to convey your message.


3.Do Not Think Aloud 
 
Have you ever thought how the listeners feel when you introduce yourself as "I am 'aaaa' John; 'eeeeaaa' living in 'aaaamm' New York."? Yes, you sound strange, unsure and maybe less confident!
That's why it is advisable NOT to think aloud especially by making sounds like 'ahh', 'aaaamm', 'aaaa'; the list goes on. Join my  English class on I Speak You Speak English where I'll teach you how to overcome this problem of thinking aloud while speaking.

4. Known Vocabulary 

Forget it! Difficult words used incorrectly fail to impress even the most illiterate audience. Pick up words whose meaning and application you understand. It could be phrases as simple as a 'bright girl'. When you are confident of the words you are using in the Conversation, your fluency improves considerably.

5. Speak Daily

You want everyone to admire the confidence with which you use the English language. You have to work hard for it. Speak English every day. Read books, newspapers, websites but SPEAK SPEAK and SPEAK.

How Speak English Fluently

Speaking English Fluently Rules

1. Don't study grammar too much

If you want to pass examinations, then study grammar. However, if you want to become fluent in English, then you should try to learn English without studying the grammar. 

Studying grammar will only slow you down and confuse you. You will think about the rules when creating sentences instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native.  I can confidently say this with experience. I am a native English speaker, majored in English Literature, and have been teaching English for more than 10 years. However, many of my students know more details about English grammar than I do. I can easily look up the definition and apply it, but I don't know it off the top of my head. 

 2. Learn and study phrases

Many students learn vocabulary and try to put many words together to create a proper sentence. It amazes me how many words some of my students know, but they cannot create a proper sentence. The reason is because they didn't study phrases. When children learn a language, they learn both words and phrases together. Likewise, you need to study and learn phrases. 

If you know 1000 words, you might not be able to say one correct sentence. But if you know 1 phrase, you can make hundreds of correct sentences. If you know 100 phrases, you will be surprised at how many correct sentences you will be able to say. Finally, when you know only a 1000 phrases, you will be almost a fluent English speaker. 

Don't translate 

When you want to create an English sentence, do not translate the words from your Mother tongue. The order of words is probably completely different and you will be both slow and incorrect by doing this. Instead, learn phrases and sentences so you don't have to think about the words you are saying. It should be automatic. 

Another problem with translating is that you will be trying to incorporate grammar rules that you have learned. Translating and thinking about the grammar to create English sentences is incorrect and should be avoided. 

3. Reading and Listening is NOT enough. Practice Speaking what you hear!

Reading, listening, and speaking are the most important aspects of any language. The same is true for English. However, speaking is the only requirement to be fluent. It is normal for babies and children to learn speaking first, become fluent, then start reading, then writing. So the natural order is listening, speaking, reading, then writing. 

First Problem
Isn't it strange that schools across the world teach reading first, then writing, then listening, and finally speaking? Although it is different, the main reason is because when you learn a second language, you need to read material to understand and learn it. So even though the natural order is listening, speaking, reading, then writing, the order for ESL students is reading, listening, speaking, then writing. 

Second Problem
The reason many people can read and listen is because that's all they practice. But in order to speak English fluently, you need to practice speaking. Don't stop at the listening portion, and when you study, don't just listen. Speak out loud the material you are listening to and practice what you hear. Practice speaking out loud until your mouth and brain can do it without any effort. By doing so, you will be able to speak English fluently. 

4. Keep yourself busy with English Environment.

You don't have to go anywhere to become a fluent English speaker. You only need to surround yourself with English. You can do this by making rules with your existing friends that you will only speak English.  Submerge yourself in English and you will learn several times faster. 

5. Study correct material

 "Practice makes perfect." This is far from the truth. Practice only makes what you are practicing permanent. If you practice the incorrect sentence, you will have perfected saying the sentence incorrectly. Therefore, it is important that you study material that is commonly used by most people. 

In short, study English material that you can trust, that is commonly used, and that is correct.
