Dear Sahabsce,

Welcome to our forum. What you can do is the following: Create a list with phrases and sentences you need on a regular basis when you speak to your clients. Practice saying theses phrases until you are absolutely comfortable pronouncing them. Make sure you can say them without thinking about the grammar. Record your own voice and listen to it. If you have a coworker whose native language is English, have them listen to your recordings too. Alternatively, you can send us your audio files and we'll give you more feedback.

Let me know what you think.

Regards,
Torsten

Hi ,

This is the first time i write inthis forum, i am so happy that at the end i found a place where i can improve my English, i want to speak, and write English as if it is my native language.

I believe that if a person does have the interest he can reach the maximum.

Cheers

Hi Torsten, I am new to this forum, and i liked it very much, i think it is an ideal place to learn english.My native language is Punjabi (From Punjab,India), my main problem is that i use to speak lot in my native language at my place & i think this is the reason that i can't speak english very well,i can listen to,speak fluently(by reading) but when it comes to daily conversation or interview like situtations, i just freezes,words don't come in my mind.I have tried many things like speaking in english with my friends,worked on my vocabulary etc., but the problem is that i start it with great spirit but slowly my interest becomes low and what i get is problem in speaking in english.So what do you think, what should be the strategy for me to improve my speaking skills? (Forgive me for any mistakes in my written english, i am also working on it). Question

May I also send one of my audio files to you and have your feedback on my accent?

If positive, I will be most grateful.
