Improve English Speaking Skills Everyday (Tips to speak in English) English Conversation Practice

hello teacher do you remember me  I am Carlos your former student

Carlos oh sure I was your teacher last  year of course I remember you how are you

I'm good teacher did you know I traveled to  the us this year I just got back from my trip

that's great I remember you told me you  were going to travel congratulations

then you had the chance to practice your English  

you have put into practice  everything you have learned

yeah so so I mean I could speak  English but it was not good

what do you mean you have advanced English  level weren't you able to communicate

no well I could but it's different teacher I can't  understand a native English speaker very well  

they speak very fast I understand just a  few words and I can't answer them properly  

I need to speak English like them that fast  that's why I'm here I need your help please

I see then you need to speak like a native  English speaker and also understand what they say

don't worry I have some minutes before  I go back to classes so I will help you

really oh thank you so much teacher  I will pay attention I promise

it can be very frustrating when you don't  understand native speakers I know that

especially if you've been studying English for a  while or like you you finished studying English

when you get into a conversation  and need to keep asking someone  

to repeat or slow down it can feel demoralizing

but the first thing you have to  do is to be patient give yourself  

some time to get used to the person's accent  

and also the ways in which native speakers stress  some words reduce other sounds or connect sounds  

so to understand English speakers better you  will have to learn about linking and illusion

to sound more flowing and fluent in  English speakers use linking an illusion

most of the time when a word ends in a consonant  and the next war begins with a bowel in a sentence

we link them together like one long word  instead of two or three separate words  

for example if I say most of  it was open that sounds choppy

but if I use linking I will link the St at the  end of most to the O at the beginning of off  

most of then I'll link the V sound at the end  of off to the I at the beginning of it of it  

we take the final consonant of the first word  and attach it to the second war at the beginning

so instead of most of it each were  set separately it becomes most of it  

like one long word with no breaks in  between most of it let's say twice together  

most of it most of it similarly  a link was open as well  

this becomes what's happening let's say twice  together was open What's Happening Elysian is  

when a word ends in a particular consonant and  the next word begins with the same consonant

and so we lied or omit the consonant at  the end of the first word for example

I got to see the play last night instead of  saying got to separately I ran the words together  

and leave off the T at the end of  God I go to see the play last night

say it with me I go to see I go to Sea excellent

what else oh listen for assimilation  to improve your English comprehension

speech assimilation is the process  where sounds in separate words change

when they are put together in speech  to make it easier to say for example

I can say hand back as two separate  words I have a hand back hand back  

but usually in quick speech  handbag becomes handbag handbag

the D is submitted and the N modifies to  a lip together sound M to make it easier

to get to the B which is also a  sound made with the lips together

I have a handbag handbag handbag

what else oh be an active listener  to understand native speakers well

you need to concentrate when you listen it's  not enough to think that you're listening skills

will improve if you just have a radio playing  in the background for example what I mean is  

decide to listen to something an  audio track song podcast video Etc

and then listen to it more than once so that  you can be sure you understand do you get it

you'll also find that when  you listen it will become  

easier to identify typical English pronunciation

such as word stress sentence stress  and connections between words

but also your own English pronunciation will  improve as you begin to pick up these elements  

of pronunciation the students I have taught  with the best pronunciation are those who  

regularly watch and listen to native English  speakers in TV series and films seriously

many people think that traveling or living  in an English-speaking country is enough to

speak like a native speaker but that's not truth  it helps yeah of course but it's not enough  

there are many people who don't speak English well  

they live there but they can't  communicate well in English  

many students from this Channel live in the U.S  so that means it's not enough just to live there

so don't think that just because you travel to  

other country you'll speak  their native language well

you need practice dedication oh it's  very late I need to go to my class
