• Read English newspaper, short story or even
novel for 20 minutes everyday to get
comfortable with the language.
• Develop your written language. It would help
you to form right sentences within a
considerable span of time and later this
practice would help to form sentences in
much shorter span of time.
• Start Speaking. Try out your spoken English on
anyone who will be able to respond to you.
Dont be afraid of making mistakes.
Keep your ears open for the accent.
• Watch English news channels on Television. Watch
BBC for the British Accent, CNN for the
American Accent and NDTV 24/7 for the urban
Indian Accent.
• Record your speech. Listen to your voice and
catch your pronunciation mistakes. Make an
earnest effort to avoid them.
• Grammar is important. The parts of speech,
tenses, form of verb, articles and modals all
contribute to fluency. Focus more on
understanding between noun and verb, which
runs throughout English at all levels. Make an
sincere effort to learn them.
• Make the Dictionary your best friend.
Everyone, including the scholars use it when
confronted with a new word. So it is not bad
or do not have the feeling that you don't
know. Familiarize yourself with its meaning
and use it in a sentence that very day.
• Have someone proficient read aloud to you. A
storybook or a newspaper article will do.
Watch the way they move their lips and mouth
while pronouncing certain words.
• Learn one new word a day. To increase your
active vocabulary start memorizing the
meaning of a word you had heard but not sure
of. Use it regularly to absorb it into your
vocabulary bank.
• Start writing a Diary. It will allow you to
practice the language in a totally non-
threatening environment. Everyday write one
concrete paragraph of at least 100 words.

Definitely, your spoken English will improve,
but cannot, if you lack commitment.

Always remember, the skills involved in
developing any language are Listening,
Speaking, Reading and Writing. It would not
possible to develop any single skill in
isolation.
