My speaking exam I've taken an exam. It's a English speaking test and, as usually, my result is terrible. I know my speaking skill is bad but I'm too shy to go out to practise with a native speaker and even ask my friend to help. I think that the cause of this problem is my lack of self-confidence. I forgot all when the examiner started to ask question. My heart beat fast and my back shirt was sweaty. I didn't answer the question fluently and made many mistakes. After that, I have an argument with my friend and I felt that maybe she won't talk to me. In the test, the examiner asked us to do a conversation about tree cutting but time was running out. I interrupted her and said. And time was up. She told me that I had said too much and I had been selfish. But I thought that if I hadn't do that, there would be no chance for me to express my idea. However, she talked an idea and did I too. We are just different in the length of the detail. That's my day! You maybe think that why you don't change or something like that but to be honestly, I don't know how to talk to another. Most of time, I keep quiet because I don't know what to talk. It seems that I come from another planet so I can find common interests. I want to change but I need someone help me. :(((((

Don't worry too much about it. I find speaking in another language much more difficult than reading or writing as well! I'm sure you will get there. I hope you work things out with your friend :)

Thanks for your useful advice, Angie. That's is our university's final exam. It's like FCE but it's more simple.

Hello Nuoc, sorry to hear about your exam. Get past exam speaking questions and practice answering them. Record your answers and then play it back and listen carefully. See where you can improve and then give another answer and record that too. Carry on doing that until you are happy with your answers. Listen or ask others more fluent than you to give their answers and record that too. Careful listening and asking yourself questions as to how to improve will help greatly. By the way, what speaking exam are you taking? All the best, Angie
