Focused listening practice is a way to help develop your ear for the English language and gradually increase your comprehension.

Improve your English Speaking and Fluency

Let us first break down the skill of speaking English into its component parts. The first is pronunciation – do you pronounce words clearly and correctly? The second is fluency – are you able to speak easily and correctly, without struggling for the right sounds and the right words? Finally, are you confident while speaking, or do you hesitate to speak because you’re unsure of your English language skills?

Both pronunciation and English fluency are important to develop English speaking skill. As with many other skills, you need to practice, practice, and practice to get better!

Start Reading out Aloud

A simple, yet very effective technique that we have built into each of our Learning Programs is to read aloud as you listen. Our technology platform enables you to listen to your reading in a clear, neutral voice that can be slowed down to a pace comfortable for you. As you get used to reading English and listening, you can also start speaking aloud along with the text. Practicing your speaking skills with the help of well formed and correctly spoken text will improve your pronunciation, fluency, and thereby confidence. Of course, you must use your developing confidence to practice conversing with people in English. This will help further enhance your speaking skills.

Use Relevant and Interesting Learning Material

It is important that the learning material you use to read aloud is interesting and relevant for you. Because interesting material will keep you motivated to continue your practice. It should also be at a level that is right for you – not too easy which might be boring, and not so difficult that you give up!
