Improving your speaking skills

In each English-speaking country there are usually many different accents and dialentcs, but also in those countries where English is spoken as a second or third language there are also different accents.

It's true that there is a standard of well spoken English, but don't be obsessed with that, it's impossible for you to speak a language in the same way as a native speaker does.

 So try to have a good accent but don't be obsessed with it because there are things like stress or intonation that are probably more important than the accent.

Here there are some strategies to improve your speaking:

-The most important point for interacting is having confidence,  and this is deppeloped by practising.

- In the classroom make sure you use English not only for doing exercises but also when you are speaking.

- Join English people or people to speak Eenglish to practise with them.

-Try to use English when you travel out of your country.

-Record yourself  speaking to see your pronunciation.

-Watch TV programs in English to get used to their accent or their way of intonation. Intonation is important to know what does the speaker mean and what does he feel.
