1. Speak in front of a mirror.
Watch the shape of your mouth and your facial expressions
2.Read aloud to yourself.
It helps you better understand how words are written in English as well as how they're spoken
Read a lot and out loud
3.Listen to spoken English and repeat it back.
Play a video with a native speaker talking in English. After each sentence, pause the video and repeat the sentence aloud. Rewind the video and listen to the native speaker again, then repeat it again yourself
4.Narrate your actions.
Say what you're doing or thinking aloud in English. As you go about your day, pretend you're a character in a novel and tell your "reader" about your every move.
5.Memorize a poem or speech and recite it.
Find a short poem or speech you love. Go line by line to memorize the passage you've chosen—just this act is already helping you become more familiar with English. >> Storytelling. Try to use them when you speak with someone.
6.Test out tongue twisters.
Use these silly phrases to practice problematic pronunciation.
7.Record yourself speaking and play it back.
Read a passage in a book aloud, then listen to yourself speaking. Any sort of voice recorder will work for this—most smartphones have recording apps. It can be awkward to listen to your recorded voice, but it'll help you recognize issues with your pronunciation.
If you have a recording of a native English speaker reading the same passage, play your recording first, then play theirs. Note where your pronunciation differs so you'll know what you need to practice more.
8.Sing along with English lyric.
Learn the lyrics to English-language songs that you like. Popular music can be great because you'll also pick up some of the slang and casual speech that most people use in daily life.Listening to English-language music is a good way to immerse yourself in the language. Initially, you might find that you don't understand all the words. But as you continue to listen, you'll start understanding more and more.
9.Dictate in English instead of writing.
If the app shows the word you meant to say, you'll know your pronunciation is clear.How the virtual assistant understands what you've said also helps you improve your pronunciation.
10.Read English subtitles aloud.
Watch a show in English with subtitles, reading along. Try to say the words at the same time as the person on the screen (although this can be difficult if there's a lag in the subtitles). This will help you with the speed of your speech as well as your pronunciation
11.Commentate a sports broadcast.
Put the game on mute and make the play-by-play yourself in English.
12.Practice shadow reading.
Get a transcript and read along as someone is speaking. For this exercise, you'll need both a written transcript and a video of a person saying those exact words. When you start the video and the person starts speaking, speak aloud along with them using the transcript. Try to mimic their speed, rhythm, and speaking style as closely as possible.
