①話す前の準備運動
スポーツ選手は、練習を始める前に
必ず準備運動を行います。
なぜならそれをすることで、
自身のパフォーマンスが向上するのはもちろん、
けがの防止につながるからです。
何事にも準備は必要です。
慣れていない物事においては
尚更です。
英語においても
一緒です。
ここでは、準備つまり
心構えが必要ですね。
いくら英語がペラペラ話せる人であっても
母国語でない限りは、急に話せと
言われてもなかなか急には出てこれません。
さっきまで英語で何か
考え事をしていたりしてたら別ですが。
大半はすぐには完璧にはできません。
まだ英語に慣れていない時に
英語を話すのはなかなかチャレンジングな
事ですが、それはネイティブになる為の
正しい道のりです。
そしてのちにネイティブになれた
誰しもが通る道であります。
ここで必ず分かっておいて欲しいことは、
初めから完璧にできる人間なんて
いないということです。
失敗してください。
そもそも失敗しなければ成功は
しませんから。
成功しかしたことない人は
イレギュラーの際に必ず失敗しますし、
成功しかしない人もこの世にはいません。
正々堂々と立ち向かってください。
あなたの心の中にはairilも
ついています。
立ち向かえたからこそ
道は開けるものです。

Do you want to learn how to speak English well?
Are you also looking for a shortcut to English fluency?
We don’t have tricks that will give you perfect English in five minutes a day.
But we do have solid tips that will help you learn how to speak English more fluently, in less time.
Here are some tips that will help you speak English better than ever.
1. Accept That English Is a Weird Language
Sometimes you can find patterns in English grammar, but other times English doesn’t make sense at all. For example, why are “read” (reed) and “read” (red) the same word, but pronounced differently depending on whether you’re speaking in the past or present tense? Or why is “mice” the plural of “mouse,” but “houses” is the plural of “house”?
Unfortunately, there are just as many exceptions as there are rules in English. It’s easy to get stuck on learning how to speak English properly, if you try to find a reason for everything. Sometimes English is weird and inexplicable, so instead the best thing to do is just memorize the strange exceptions and move on.
2. Dive into the Deep End
Studying English for an hour once a week isn’t usually enough to make any real progress. The best way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day. Immerse yourself as much as possible every time you study, and challenge yourself to listen to, read and even say things in English that you think might be too difficult for you. If you want to speak English fluently, you need to make it an essential part of your everyday life.

3. Stop Being a Student
The right attitude can make the difference between failure and success. Stop thinking of yourself as someone who is learning English, and start thinking of yourself as someone who speaks English. It’s a small change, but it will make you feel more confident and help you to use the English you already know more effectively.
This also means you need to start thinking in English. If you want to say the word “apple” in English, for example, right now you probably think of the word in your native language first, and then try to think of the correct word in English. Instead, try imagining a picture of an apple, and then just think the English word “apple.” Real fluency happens when you stop mentally translating conversations.

4. Remember the Answer Is in the Question
Listen carefully when someone asks you a question in English and you’ll answer perfectly every time. English questions are like mirrors:
Does he…..? Yes, he does.
Can she….? Yes, she can.
Is it….? Yes, it is.
If someone asks you a question and you’re not sure how to answer, start by thinking about the words used in the question. The person has already said most of the words you need to make your answer. Instead of just memorizing English grammar, start to look for patterns like this one. There are a lot of simple ways to “cheat” and make it easier to remember the right words.
5. Get More out of Listening
When most students listen to a native English-speaker, they focus on understanding what all the words mean. This is definitely important, but there is a lot more you can learn from listening. Try listening not just to what the words mean, but to how the person says them. Notice which words the person links together in a sentence, or when they say “ya” instead of “you.” Try to remember these details the next time you speak and your English will begin to sound more natural.
Easier said than done, right? When you listen to native English speakers, it can be hard to understand every single word that is spoken. They might use many words you don’t know, talk too fast or have a strong accent.
6. Use It or Lose It
There’s an expression in English: “Use it or lose it,” which basically means if you don’t practice an ability, you might forget it. This idea can be used to help you remember new English vocabulary. The best way to remember a new word is to use it right away so it will stay in your memory. When you learn a new word, try to say it in sentences a few times over the next week and you’ll never forget it.
7. Learn and Study Phrases
Speaking English fluently means being able to express your thoughts, feelings and ideas. Your goal is to speak English in full sentences, so why not learn it in full sentences? You’ll find that English is more useful in your everyday life if you study whole phrases, rather than just vocabulary and verbs. Start by thinking about phrases that you use frequently in your native language, and then learn how to say them in English.
8. Don’t Study Grammar Too Much
The key to learning a language is finding a balance between studying and practicing. Speaking English fluently isn’t the same as knowing perfect English grammar—even native English-speakers make grammar mistakes! Fluency is about being able to communicate. That’s why sometimes it’s important to put the grammar textbook away, so you can go out and practice those writing, reading, listening and speaking skills in the real world.
9. Don’t Be Afraid to Make Mistakes
Sometimes it can be difficult to put all those rules and words together into a simple sentence. Don’t let the fear of saying something wrong stop you from speaking at all. Even if you think you’re making a mistake, keep speaking anyway. Most of the time, people will understand what you’re trying to say, even if you make a mistake. Plus, the more you speak, the easier it gets, and the faster the right words will come to mind.
10. Learn from Everyone
You don’t have to only learn English from textbooks and teachers—anyone who speaks English can help you practice. Imagine how you would feel if someone asked you, in your native language, how to pronounce something? Would you be angry? No! You’d probably be happy to help, just like most English speakers are happy to help you. If you know any English speakers, whether it’s a friend or co-worker, take advantage of the opportunity to practice and learn from them.
11. Use Speech-to-text for all (English) Text Messaging
You can practice English speaking even when you’re texting people. Just speak your texts instead of typing them! You may need to change your settings to enable speech-to-text first. Then, find the “speech” option on whatever keyboard you’re using. Often, you just need to tap a microphone icon on the right side of the keyboard. Start speaking, and your words appear on the screen. No one hears you talk, but you still get practice. Pretty good deal, huh?
But what if most of your communication is with friends and family in your native language? Microsoft Translator has a way around this. Check to see if your native language is included in Microsoft’s Conversations feature. If it is, you can speak out loud in English, and have your words automatically translated into text in your native language. Your chat partner can speak in your native language, and have their words show up for you in English. This way, you get English speaking (and reading) practice while having the conversations you would be having anyway.
12. Record Your Own English-language Audiobooks
How do you speak English fluently and confidently? When we think of practicing a language, we often think of putting ourselves in situations where we have to use the language. But the truth is, a lot of confidence and fluency comes from actually speaking. This technique can help you do a lot more of that.
Think about your favorite books. Even if you don’t have any favorite books that were written in English, you can probably find some in English translation. For example, the Harry Potter series has been sold all over the world. Take any English-language book that you already enjoy, and record yourself reading it in English. This will take you a while, of course. But it will give you a way to practice your English pronunciation every day in a way that’s fun and interesting for you. Once you finish recording the book, you’ll have a homemade audiobook of it to listen to, which will give you a way to practice your listening skills, too.
13. Record Yourself Reading Material That You Want to Learn, Then Listen to It Throughout Your Day
Use the same technique described above to learn English in general while also practicing your speech. For example, let’s say that you’d like to get better at talking to waitstaff. Maybe you see a FluentU post that includes examples of English conversations to have in restaurants. Instead of just reading the post and trying to remember the examples, record yourself reading it! This will give you multiple opportunities to remember the material: when you first read it, when you read it out loud and when you listen to yourself reading it later.
14. Talk Yourself Through Processes
Think about all the things you might do that have a beginning, a middle and an end. For example, following a recipe when cooking dinner, or putting together a piece of furniture. These processes are opportunities to improve your English speaking skills. Write out instructions for a process in English on a piece of paper. Make it as simple as possible and number your steps. For cooking something, your instructions might start like this:
- Peel the garlic.
- Dice the garlic.
- Peel the onions.
- Slice the onions.
Once you have your instructions, follow them. In the meantime, say what you’re doing out loud. For example, “Now I’m cutting up the onions. Uh oh, my eyes are starting to water!” Your instructions are a kind of “cheat sheet” to help you along the way. They will help you talk continuously, without having to stop and think about what to do next.
15. Memorize Conversation Starters (and Use Them!)
You might miss out on opportunities to practice English speaking if you just can’t think of anything to say. An easy solution to this is to memorize conversation starters, or ideas for beginning conversations. You can find lots of these online. For example, here’s a list of 250 conversation starters from Conversation Starters World.
Of course, you wouldn’t want to use all of these at any time. It would probably seem weird if you just walked up to someone and said, “What three words best describe you?” But memorizing some ideas will help you feel better about talking to people in casual situations. You can also use these to keep conversations going when talking to exchange partners.
16. Share Your Opinions Online
To really learn English speaking, you need to learn how to express yourself in English. Even if you have ideas for conversations, it can be hard to know how to put them into your own words. But you can practice this by participating in conversations online. Posting on social media, leaving comments on articles or writing reviews are all good approaches.
Goodreads is a site where people leave their thoughts about books they’ve read. Writing about books and movies is always a nice way to practice sharing your opinions in English, because they give you a lot to think about! But if you don’t have time to do this, there are simpler options: Watch a short video on YouTube and leave a comment underneath it. Post short opinions on Twitter about anything. There are many options for practicing your English skills before you speak it out loud!
