Morning! (Or at least, it’s a new day in my part of the world)
How to improve my speaking skills
  1. Determine a list of topics that I’m interested about and would like to engage others in discussions with.
  2. Be conscientious about collecting useful phrases for them.
For example, in order to prepare my students for their oral examinations, I curated this list of phrases in regard to hawker centres (some kind of eatery in Singapore)
You can see that I categorised the phrases in terms of levels. I will get the weakest progress students to be familiarised with the simplest conversational words and stretch the confident speakers with more sophisticated vocabulary.
I also tried to introduce phrases that can be applied in many situations
  1. Practise using these unfamiliar phrases until they become second nature.
Deliberate practice is important. If we don’t get down to using new words conscientiously in our lives, we would not able to level up our speaking skills.
Hope this helps!
