How to feel more confident when you speak English (Tip 4)

Work on your pronunciation  with people whose first language is not English

Do you get anxious when you're around people who speak the native language? Instead, get some practise with people who aren't natural speakers!

If you're feeling anxious, just keep in mind that most of the other people in the room are also not native speakers.

They won't care if you make a mistake; in fact, it's possible that they won't even notice because they'll be too preoccupied with making sure that their English is correct.

Knowing that their "audience" is in the exact same boat as them (a word that means to be in the same conditions or situation as others) may be a major confidence boost for certain students. This is a phrase that means to be in the same circumstances or situation as others.

After your English class is finished, do you have some time to spare? Make it a point to get some of your other students together for a practise session.

Not only will you have the opportunity to improve your spoken English, but you will also get the chance to meet some wonderful people.
