2. Tips for practicing English pronunciation

1. If you can’t hear your pronunciation problem, it will be difficult to correct it. Try recording what you say and compare it with what a native English speaker says.

2. Many English learners often say that speaking too fast can easily develop their bad habits. Being too fast and unclear is a big no-no in speaking exams. So we need accuracy and then fluency. We practice some basic language every day, starting with monosyllables, then words, and connecting several words together to form sentences.

3. Close your eyes and think about how to pronounce this sound before saying it. Visualize your mouth movements and facial movements.

4. Pronunciation is a physical movement. Learn how to make sounds with your mouth and how to move your muscles. Focus on training a few tones every day. Do you have difficulty pronouncing words such as this, thank, they, and little, wool? Try pronouncing 'th' by placing your tongue between your teeth (without biting down) and blowing air out of your mouth. Feel the air blowing across your tongue.

5. Stand in front of the mirror and check the shape of your mouth, lip shape and tongue position when you pronounce certain fixed sounds. Compare it with the pronunciation you see! You can also record your pronunciation into a video for careful observation and comparison.

6. The reason why pronunciation problems cannot be solved is because we are afraid of making mistakes. When meeting for the first time, order food at a restaurant, ask for directions, and then act out the conversation yourself.

7. Getting feedback from other people is very important. Find a friend who is also interested in improving your English. Try changing the recording so you can hear each other's pronunciation. Remember to listen to it again after recording to find out the mistakes and highlights.

8. Good pronunciation is not just about mastering individual syllables. Or the understanding of intonation (the rising and falling tones of sounds) and stress (the louder and clearer pronunciation of some syllables in words and some words in sentences). Read some poetry, speeches, and songs out loud, focusing on the stress and tones of the words.

3. Strategies to improve spoken English

1. Carefully select practice materials

The choice of practice materials is related to the level of our language level in the future and is our future The blueprint of language, so you must be careful and choose carefully.

Materials can be poems, beautiful articles, or even anything you like but you must be proficient in language. It is usually recommended that you choose new concept articles first, ranging from the first volume to the fourth volume, the difficulty ranges, but the articles are classic, the language is authentic, and full of beauty. At the same time, each article has a recorded version, and is divided into British styles. There are two kinds of American pronunciation, which can meet the needs of everyone.

2. Improve through actual practice

Whether in the process of reading aloud or in contact with TV or newspapers, when we encounter classic sentence patterns and good expression methods, we will move our pen. Write it down and reserve more so that you will have all the food, rice, oil and salt you need when you need it.

At the same time, temporarily preparing some common sentence patterns, greetings, and idioms before talking to people, especially foreigners, can also help to stabilize your position. In fact, in the actual process, you will find that the foreigners you are most "fearful" of speaking will never argue with you from a grammatical point of view. As long as they can communicate smoothly and have the accumulation of normal pronunciation and intonation, their thumbs will often be higher. Raise your head high and compliment your English as "excellent". So beautiful! Many such experiences are a source of confidence for you. With confidence, everything will fall into place.

3. Listen to recordings to practice speaking

After selecting the practice materials, thoroughly solve the unfamiliar words, usage, and meanings in the materials. There are also techniques for this, which is easier? Heavy, but this is not the speaking topic we want to discuss today. After completing these tasks, we must learn to put those sentences and usage into spoken language.

The first step is to read aloud. The first problem that arises when converting from written to spoken is voice and intonation. Why do many foreigners who learn Chinese mean the right thing when they talk about Chinese, but Chinese people know they are foreigners when they hear it? This is because the foreigners' pronunciation and intonation are not well grasped, and this situation cannot be called authentic Chinese. The same goes for learning English.

The easiest way to master pronunciation and intonation is recommended: listen to recordings and imitate. Don't be anxious, sentence by sentence, pay attention to carefully identify the pauses, rising and falling intonation, stress, omission, etc. If you can't remember, can you still mark it in the book and come up with some ideas? Quantitative changes will eventually lead to qualitative changes. It is possible to speak authentic English and American pronunciation like your mother tongue.

4. The bumpy journey from familiarity to recitation

When most people hear recitation, their heads turn into two heads. In fact, the proposed recitation is different from the traditional "endorsement". Haha, what kind of recitation is that? Extremely skilled. Based on the marks we made in the book in step 2 and the arduous practice of reciting the recorded materials in strict accordance with the standard pronunciation, when we can easily recite the new concept four, our English must have been spoken!

5. English includes four aspects: listening, speaking, reading and writing. As mentioned above, listening to the news, watching movies, reading newspapers, and magazines can really provide a good language foundation and rich materials for improving our spoken English. In turn, the improvement of spoken English also brings surprises to the learning of other aspects of English, especially writing. Give it a try, you may also be pleasantly surprised.

4. The key points of learning spoken English well

? In the translation exam, speaking is the most important and critical part. But for Chinese people, speaking is the most difficult part to break through. Many people start learning English in elementary school and still cannot communicate fluently with foreigners when they graduate from college. Although they have studied English for many years, they cannot really speak English well. There are very few people who are fluent and accurate. Recalling my stumbling learning experience over the years, I have gained some understanding of English mainly as a spoken language.

We lack a good learning environment for learning spoken language, especially the environment for listening and speaking, which is a disadvantage of language learning. Broadly speaking, we don’t have many opportunities to interact with foreigners, and we rarely hear English spoken in its original voice. There are not many foreign teachers in the school, not to mention that many foreigners do not know Chinese and are not bilingual, so they cannot communicate well with students. Because of the lack of language environment, there are so many people learning English, but there are so few people who can actually listen, speak, and communicate fluently. Most people have taken many detours.

Therefore, it is very important to create a good environment for yourself. If there is no big environment, then create a small environment yourself. Nowadays, there are many programs online, with rich pictures and texts, and pure voices. These programs are very close to life, such as schooling, travel, shopping, movies, food, fitness, sports, entertainment, etc. Through study, you can carefully understand the language environment in which each word is applicable, that is, in what environment and what kind of use. of words. The more frequently a word is used by the teacher, the more common it is. For example, everyone speaks English. Her advantage is that she uses English to explain English, uses simple words to explain complex words, and uses multiple sentences to express one meaning. This is very useful during real conversations. Due to different countries and different environments, English is also divided into American, British, Australian and Indian-Pakistani English, etc. When foreigners do not understand the word, they can use other words instead. This is a very important ability. When studying, you must pay attention to the teacher's body language. When Westerners speak, body language, including expressions, gestures, and even head and foot movements, are richer than ours, so pay attention to imitation. When talking in this way, the effect of expression can be enhanced. You also need to listen and speak at the same time to keep up with the teacher's speaking speed. Listening and speaking are trained together to truly achieve what Zhu Xi said, "the mouth is aware, the eyes are aware, and the heart is aware." Here there is also ear awareness. Slowly you will find that you don’t need to translate into Chinese when listening to English.

5. English speaking practice method

First, we read the Chinese part, and then directly translate it into English sentence by sentence. After completing a short paragraph, read the corresponding English part in the book and talk with us By comparing our interpretations, we can immediately discover the errors and shortcomings of our interpretations and make progress. Please note: You should choose simpler reading materials at the beginning and do them in large quantities. The effect of only one or two articles will not be obvious. It may start out slower and take more time, but stick with it, and overall it's an accelerated process. Please time your practice at the advanced level to speed up your reaction speed and oral fluency.

As an adult learning English, poor memory is a stumbling block. It is often difficult to do retelling exercises or memorize texts, or it is too difficult to interpret directly because the vocabulary is too small. This can be a very effective solution to this problem. First study the English text, and after you have a thorough understanding of the text, then look at the Chinese translation and interpret the Chinese translation back to English. This is equivalent to practicing both retelling and interpreting, killing two birds with one stone!

Benefits of doing this:

1. You can practice speaking by yourself for as long as you want.

2. There is always a "senior teacher" to point out your shortcomings and mistakes - original English text.

3. The subject matter range is extremely wide and can break through the constraints of our own thinking. For example, we always like to talk about topics we are familiar with, so we are always practicing the same language, and progress is of course slow.

4. Choose novels, humorous stories or good short articles to read so that we have enough interest to persist.

5. Some authentic English usages that we ignore when we study English texts directly will be discovered by this method.

6. Be deeply impressed by the knowledge you have learned and the mistakes you have made. This means that we have been doing Chinese-English translation exercises. Many of the English translations were produced by us with great effort, so the impression is quite profound, much deeper than studying English texts directly.

7. After a lot of practice, you will feel like this: there is nothing you cannot translate, your translation level has been greatly enhanced, and your oral expression has been greatly improved!
