To fluently speak English, a sufficiently large vocabulary is needed. So try to learn and memorize at least three new phrases each day.

Instead of immediately trying to speak in complete sentences, learn phrases and word combinations in English. Then try to use them as much as possible.

Phrases such as get up and run out of will help you to speak English more fluently.

Don’t forget to repeat phrases you have already learned. Test yourself at the end of each week to see how much you remember.

Be sure to pronounce the learned words and expressions as much as possible. You do not need to learn them from a list. Instead, you can try some of the practical exercises and resources in our English Pronunciation Guide.

Understanding the words and using them in the correct context is the key to improving.

To speak English fluently, you need to be able to talk without continually pausing to think about which word to use or whether the sentence is grammatically correct. Don’t focus on grammar when speaking. It’s better to speak and speak as plainly as you can.

Don’t use complex sentences if you’re not sure what they mean. It’s better to speak correctly.

You can practice with native English speaker on preply.com or other sites.

You can also speak with others who are learning English. For example, you can use the site howdoyoudo?

I recommend that you use these services: GingerSoftware, Grammarcheck or Grammarly. They will correct mistakes as soon as you make them. These websites will help you to be more attentive, and you’ll make fewer mistakes.

There are many useful resources where you can find useful information; they can even be fun, and you’ll be able to communicate with others using the written word.

For example:

To improve your writing skills, you should read as much as possible, and also write. As much as possible. In English! Start with online magazines and blogs that you find interesting, and then write short “essays” about what you read. The more you practice, the more you’ll see improvement in your English. You can also take a business English writing course to help take your written skills to the next level.
