How can I improve my English speaking skills?

Question

Learners often seek practical tips on how to practice speaking and build confidence.

Answer 1

When I am looking to build confidence in my speaking, I have 2 methods that are in my favorites:

1) speak to a mirror

2) make a list of 3 locations, then go to those locations and find a place to sit with my tea/coffee and have a conversation with myself. I may speak outlaid - I may just say it in my head and imagine myself commanding that space.

Answer 2

To improve your English speaking skills, practice regularly with native speakers or language partners. Engage in conversations, use language exchange apps, and participate in speaking clubs or online forums. Recording yourself speaking and reviewing your pronunciation can also be helpful. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes—practice builds confidence and fluency.
