How to Speak Good English
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Having authentic and polished oral English is every learner’s dream, however, many of my students spent a lot of years, money and efforts on speaking this language well but failed to be able to communicate and speak out, the reason to which might be mainly the lack of confidence and right methods. I still remember when I first landed on the soil of Beijing five years ago, I could not communicate with my friends and even felt uneasy when going out with them because I did not have the confidence to start a conversation with my Mandarin. It’s the same to the English learners who have no courage to start a topic and face an awkward silence after the initial greeting is given because they don’t know what to talk about and are not confident of putting something across correctly, thus the conversation comes to an end.
Here I would like to give you some advice on how to speak good English in terms of the experience I got from being a teacher for many language training schools and being an interpreter for the government as well as embassies.
There are 3-D methods (Dialogue, Discussion and Debate) to improve your eloquence.
First of all, (1) it’s important to be involved in dialogues.
I notice that many students do well in speaking when conducting a prepared speech or presentation in class. (2) But speaking English fluently is not just about making presentations and giving speeches. It is about expressing your ideas and insight on the most mundane things around you.
The ability to make dialogues is very important in social communication. (3) Topics for casual conversation could include the weather, education, music, current affairs, hobbies, travel, etc. (4) Do not always ask foreigners "What is your name?" and "How is your job?" when you want to find one to practice your English with. (5) Before going to English Corner, please read up on your area of interest and try framing sentences to express your opinions. (6) Talk about it with someone close to you or whose English level is higher than yours, so you can check for your language accuracy and fluency. (7) You’d better grasp regularly used ways of small talk, and you will be able to initiate speaking more confidently. If you can break this barrier and speak out with passion and confidence, you can take your first step into the realm of oral English and become a public speaker in the future.
Secondly, discussion and debate play a key role.
(8) I often say that your language ability and academic achievements are very important and imperative, but the most important of all is your eloquence to communicate in the personal relationships. The elite may not have eloquence, but an eloquent person must be an elite. So the best way to improve your speaking ability is to discuss and debate. When I was a junior, I always had discussions with my classmate about questions like environmental protection, cohabitation, 2008 Olympics, postgraduate exams and so on. After everyone aired his opinions, then we conducted debate to argue, to express ideas to convince the others. And I gradually build up my repertoire of conversational topics and start using them whenever I get a chance. Subsequently, I have a good command of English, and won a lot of awards in English speech contest and debate. Hence, it’s also effective for you, my beloved friends or students, to have a try to use your language to discuss and debate.
Of course, other methods may work too.
Many students do want to improve their English by all means. It’s self-evident that all of us like taking down notes when we are listening to the lectures given by teachers at school. But it’s not a correct way to speak good language. Can you learn swimming by standing at the edge of the pool and taking down the words spoken by the coach? You have to take the plunge, right? I seldom took notes when I was given lessons, (9) but I would memorize them with my mouth, my mind and my ears. (10) There is just one case I will take notes when I am doing my job as an interpreter for the Beijing municipal government and embassy. I still remember when I was interpreting for the ambassador from the Philippines, she was delivered the speech about 10 minutes at the Great Wall international conference. Hadn’t I taken the notice from the speaker, I don’t think I would have interpreted for her and won the applause from the officials. It is the same with language. Unless you use the language every day, you will never know how good you are at it. Ask your friends who are good at English to help. (11) Try to speak it as much as possible, (12) and let them interrupt you whenever you make mistakes and ask them to correct you. (13) Do not feel embarrassed to make mistakes, for that is the only way you will learn. Enjoy losing face and enjoy making mistakes because that is the way the process of acquiring fluency a language occurs. Everyone may have made a lot of mistakes before getting a good grasp of his or her mother tongue. The only difference now is that you are conscious of the mistakes. So, do not be afraid of making mistakes.
(14) Then, there are attitudes that count most.
(15-1) If you do want to learn something well, you are supposed to have confidence and passion. I wanted to be a teacher, to which I devoted my whole interest, confidence and passion no matter how many mistakes I encountered, how helpless, how hopeless and how far away it was for me to reach my final goal. I never stopped fighting for the improvement of myself and becoming a grounded person equipped with knowledge and a clear mindset. (15-2) And that is why I hope all of you can be confident and passionate for what you are doing and what you will do.
Finally, I want to say: try to be confident and passionate in the journey of study and life, all you need is a will to learn and the initiative to begin. That done, it is simply a matter of time and effort!
