Here are a few speaking tips…

• Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. You will make mistakes. It’s ok.

• Be patient with yourself. Learning any language can be frustrating, but frustration won’t help you.

• Take advantage of every opportunity you have to speak with people in English.

• Talk to friends who are also learning English. Go out together for coffee and only speak English to each other!

• Read short stories out loud and try to see, say and hear the words to reinforce your memory. Record yourself and play it back later, how does it sound?
