5 Tips to Improve the Way You Speak English

# Observe the Mouth MovementsClick Here for Conversations
Whenever you watch television, observe the mouth movements of the speakers. Repeat what they are saying, while imitating the intonation and rhythm of their speech.
# Being a Beginner Speak Slowly
If you speak too quickly in the beginning, and with the wrong intonation and rhythm, native speakers will have a hard time understanding you.
Don't worry about your listener getting impatient with your slow speech -- it is more important that everything you say be understood.
# Prepare a list of frequently Used Words
Prepare the list of those words which you feel problem to pronounce than ask some one to pronounce for you or try to catch those words from T.V.
# Pronounce the Ending of Each Word
Pay special attention to 'S' and 'ED' endings. This will help you strengthen the mouth muscles that you use when you speak English.
# Have Pateince
You can learn the art of good speaking but it won't happen overnight. People often expect quick results and give up too soon. Adopt the never say die policy and work harder to get better results.

Testimonial from a past student at TEFLworld Koh Samui:

Dave from South Africa writes: Towards the end of October, I started thinking about doing a TEFL course in Thailand. I was living in Thailand at the time and when I started searching for a venue and company to do my course with I was inundated with results. I eventually decided on TEFLworld in Koh Samui, because after speaking to a lot of people and reading up about the various TEFL TESOL courses offered, I decided that TEFL world is among the best.
My new classmates and I soon settled comfortably into a relaxed and what was to prove to be a very rewarding course.
I found the course material very interesting, and it turned out to be everything that I hoped it would be. Our instructor presented the material excellently and handled our questions and problems very well.
By end of the four weeks TEFL course I felt that I had not only gained a certificate, but a skill that I will be able to use for the rest of my life. The course, the instructor and the support around you at the school is of the highest quality, and I will refer anyone that I can to TEFLworld, Koh Samui.

Staycation

Listen

Mark Shea explains the origin, meaning and use of the expression 'staycation'. Click below to listen:

A holiday in Britain

Staycation

These days people have less and less money to spend on luxuries, things like holidays, for example. So, when they have some time off work, some are choosing to stay at home, instead of flying, or driving perhaps to the beach or mountains, maybe to another country. It’s a staycation, a combination of the words stay and vacation. Particularly if you live in a big city, you might not get time to enjoy everything that it has to offer in terms of entertainment – to go to the theatre, to concerts or just to go sightseeing. So a staycation might be an attractive idea. Other reasons to take a staycation might be having very young children, or perhaps you want to make some home improvements, like redecorating. In any case, a staycation will almost certainly save you money! I have some friends from the US who come over to London every year or so and stay with me – so I regularly take some time off and have a staycation. Sometimes I visit them in Seattle, and they have a staycation.

“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for coming along here today. I hope my presentation isn’t going to take too long and that you will find it interesting. The purpose of today’s presentation is to discuss how we can improve internal communications within our company.

Now let me begin by explaining that I’d like to talk about the business case for better communication; secondly, I want to cover different styles and methods; and finally I would like to finish off by talking about some of the basics we need to have in place to deliver good quality, consistent communications across the company.

I’ve invited you here today to have a look at my findings. First, I’d like to have a look at the performance of the company, the sales of the company over the last three years; then I’d like to have a look at our market share in the womenswear market and look at our competitors; and thirdly, I’d like to suggest some improvements in our range of womenswear.
