How to improve your communication skills by speaking better English? Practice makes perfect, especially when you want to improve your communication skills. You can find help to polish(润色) your English in a host of(一大群) environments, and a wide array(一系列) of media. You will need: repetition, media, a dictionary, a computer with Internet access, books, sticky notes, and a diary.

Step 1: Repeat conversations

Study mouth movements as people converse. Repeat what they say, preserving(保留) tone(腔调), volume, and rhythm(节奏). Utilizing(利用) media like television and films and listening to music or books on tape all offer a chance to absorb(吸收) English.

Tip: News broadcasters(广播员) must neutralize(中和) the emotions, so don’t mistake their delivery(讲话风格) for the way you might hear normal conversation.

Step 2: Familiarize yourself

Familiarize yourself with the dictionary to improve English communication skills, transcribing(抄写) words, pronunciations, and definitions to improve. Speaking and reading aloud in English for a set amount of time each day strengthens your abilities.

Step 3: Listen, study, repeat

Ask friends to pronounce difficult words. Listen, study, and repeat with their help, especially focusing on the endings of words. Record your voice and critique(评判) your skills later.

Tip: Some websites offer daily, short English lessons sent to your email or your phone.

Step 4: Switch searches

Switch your search engine or mobile phone settings to English language. Find online chats where you have to respond quickly in English.

Step 5: Read a translation

Re-read a book from your past, but this time in an English translation. Concentrate on the dialogue, which is more similar to what you would speak than the narrative(叙述性的) descriptions, which might not come up every day.

Tip:Some books and magazines may be too difficult at present. Don’t be afraid to quit one and find an easier level text to learn from at first.

Step 6: Teach family

Teach English to your family. Passing knowledge to others is a proven(经过验证的) way to permanently fix that same knowledge in your own brain.
 
Step 7: Label stuff

Label objects in your home by putting their names on sticky(有粘性的) notes, which serve as visual reminders. Play a radio regularly to reinforce the English language, giving you a subliminal(潜意识的) flow of words into your unconscious as you work.

Tip: Try listening to a talk radio news show. It will provide more English speaking than a music station.

Step 8: Maintain a diary

Keep a diary of a running conversation with yourself in English, using words associated with your daily experiences. They will eventually become habitual choices and part of your everyday interactions(互动) with others.

Did you know? In 2010, the more than 42,000 students in Pennsylvania who had limited English proficiency spoke 175 different languages.
