not the "free resource" part of this post but sometimes we forget we can be tutored especially as an adult. just because we don't have formal education does not mean we can't get 1:1 teaching! please do you research and don't be afraid to try out different tutors. and remember you're not dumb just because someone's teaching style doesn't match up with your learning style.

Today I wanted to share with you some tips that you can apply to every language, but I experimented with them all personally to effectively improve my speaking skills in English

slow down:

A common problem among learners can be to speak too quickly. But rushing your words can often lead to confusion and miscommunication, so try to slow down and keep what you say simple

In the beginning, you may sound robotic, but you can speed up with time, once you feel more confident

work on emphasis:

The same sentence, said with different emphasis has very different meanings. Think about the point you want to make and use emphasis where needed to help clarify your meaning

Pro tip: take a sentence from a video or a show you like and repeat it out loud stressing each time a different word of the sentence!

keep going:

If you make a mistake, keep going. Understand that very few people, even native speakers, speak the language flawlessly and we all make mistakes

If you get embarrassed or shy once you’ve made a mistake, this is probably what people will notice, not the mistake itself! So keep going!

practice makes perfect:

There are so many options that now can help you improve your speaking skills without problems!
