1. All non-native speakers of English want to improve their speaking skill in English.  The simplest and the only way to speak English is “to speak English.”  Only when you drive, you can improve your driving skill.  Only by swimming, you can learn swimming.  A child that doesn’t walk can never run for a race. Only by speaking English, you can simultaneously correct, modify or improve your English. If you don’t speak,  reading thousands of grammar rules or learning 10 new words a day, or any such effort won’t be fruitful.

2. Bid farewell to your mother tongue.  The influence of mother tongue is the greatest barrier to non-native speakers of English. Whether it’s a meeting at principal’s chamber or a chat with friends and colleagues, they feel at home with mother tongue.  You can see many English teachers in India teach English with word by word or sentence by sentence explanation in mother tongue.  If you want to improve your speaking skill in English, you have to sacrifice your love and affection for your mother-tongue and overcome its influence.

3. Being too conscious of grammar rules and being afraid of fault-finders are the other barriers on the way.  If you look for perfection, then fluency will be will-o'-the-wisp (impossible). Are you conscious of grammar when you speak your mother tongue? To preserve the chastity of English is none of your business.  Speak as you breathe.

4. Keep your exposure to English high that is too low now.  Be in England or America for few months or bring British air to your home.  Just ask one question – how did you pick up fluency in your mother tongue? The answer is the remedy.  The more you are exposed to English, the more that enters your flesh and flood.  Whatever you listen, speak, read and write should be converted from your mother tongue to English.  Google is your best friend-cum-teacher and waits for your touch on the keyboard with millions of online learning sources and this high exposure to English will result in noticeable progress in your journey.

5. The fifth way, the final one I would like to suggest/insist you is the most important one.  It’s a Herculean task as well as a child’s play. It is– “Follow the above four, each and every minute every day.” I mean, have your dreams too in English. Make your dream real.
