How to Speak English
*How to speak English fluently and confidently*
You want to learn how to speak English fluently, but do not know where to start? Here are 10 simple tips...
*1. Start with believing in yourself.*
“I was afraid to speak. I was scared people would make fun of me. Will they judge me?
One day, I thought if so many people can, even I can. So I spoke in English and my confidence increased.
*2. Listen. Speak. Read. Write. Repeat.*
Listen a little. Speak a little. Read a little. Write a little. Then, listen a little more. Speak a little more. Read a little more. Write a little more. Do this, till it becomes a habit.
*3. Keep your ears open.*
English is everywhere. It’s in online videos, news channels, on radio. So listen and build your vocabulary.
*4. Find the answer in the question.*
Questions are like mirrors. Reverse the question, and find the answer.
Does he…? Yes, he does
Is it…? Yes, it is
Can you? Yes, I can.
*5. Make the mirror your best friend.*
Speak to it in English, and it will make you feel confident about the way you are speaking.
*6. Read full sentences, speak in sentences.*
7. Keep calm and do not worry about grammar.
Remember, even those who speak English fluently make grammatical mistakes. But, what they do right, is communicate without worrying about them.
*8. Find an English newspaper and learn a word a day.*
Keep your fear of new English words away.
*9. Use the word before it leaves you.*
Use the new word immediately to feel confident about it’s usage.
*10. Practice. Practice. Practice. Till it makes you perfect.*
There are no shortcuts in life. Definitely, no shortcuts to learn English.

Why Should English Learner Read Poetry
Why Should English Learners Read Poetry?
Poetry helps learners improve their speaking, writing, reading and listening skills in many different ways. For starters, poetry can teach you tons of new vocabulary. Not only will you encounter many new words, but many poems rhyme as well, which offers an incredible memory boost.
Poetry will also teach you the art of word choice . Poems are very different from prose (how language is normally written). Poets must convey a powerful message within a small amount of space. Because of this, poets are very careful about the words they select.
By paying attention to a poem’s word choice, you can learn how to choose the best possible English word to convey your own thoughts in both speaking and writing.
Furthermore, poets pay special attention to the stress and intonation of words and sentences . If you want to improve these areas of your English speech, poetry is one of the best ways to do it.
Punctuation is also an important part of poetry. It changes the way the poem sounds when read aloud, and it can even alter the poem’s meaning. Reading poetry will help you learn exactly what punctuation conveys and how to use it correctly .Want your reading comprehension to improve? Poems will teach you about literary devices in English, which are creative writing techniques—often the author will discuss something in a figurative (non-literal or unrealistic) way. Examples of literary devices are metaphors, allegories and symbolism.
If you can begin to identify these through poetry, then you’ll have a better understanding of most things you read in English . You won’t get confused by interpreting something too literally. For advanced learners, reading English poetry is one of the biggest ways you can learn to experiment with the English language . Poetry is famous for breaking English language rules. Knowing how to successfully bend these grammatical rules to convey meaning is part of mastering English.
Finally, reading poetry is a fun way to gain insight into English-speaking cultures and history since literary works reveal a lot about society.
Read the following poem and study it.
I am pauper.
I am pauper, I am pauper,
As I whine in the glittering dark,
Tears cascades from my eyes.
I sat sadly in the nook of my cubbyhole,
My suspire fluctuates like boxing gloves,
I perturbed by the pesky of tenebrous life.
Poverty became my ceremonial attire,
I perambulate to unknown direction,
I perspire under scorching cold sun.
My lips desiccate like barren weeds,
I rummage victuals to soak my cranny mouth,
Oh! Life is pestilent, people jettison a pauper.
When I walk, children burlesque me,
I live in tattered as carrion eaten by wild,
Am I a nutty? My eyes craning in the dark?
I'm eating from rotten junkyard foods,
I sleep on the fragmented, deplorable floor,
I writhe in my infinitesimal cubbyhole.
Hungry has decomposed my intestines,
Poverty wreathe the shape of my body,
Like a wrought metal used by the Smith.
It has chunked my capillary and glands,
It seizes my respiration and hooked my throat,
Why do you want to suffocate me, oh! Poverty.
Living me crawling like a dying cockroach,
And life is unpredictable without penny,
You look like insane, when you have no money.
How I wish to be a rich enough,
I could have been succored the needy,
Who eat crumbs to survive.
