I agree with Lana, also many times in another language (and in their own language) people are so nervous that they don't listen. Try to make sure you hear everything the other person is saying before you respond.

Whats up Kuldeep
One thing you can do to extend your speaking time is to set small goals for yourself. If you normally stop talking to someone after 5 minutes because of nervousness, next time you're in a conversation, go for 7 minutes. Build up your confidence that way and keep stretching the time limit. It's extremely uncomfortable man, I understand..and theres no magic bullet to solve the problem effortlessly except for just toughing it out until you can speak for 15, 30 and then 60 minutes at a time. Just look at it as a gradual thing and don't stress yourself out too much if you fall short..we're all struggling with the same issue man, trust me.
best wishes

Hi Kuldeep - the best way to improve is to keep practicing, and to "let go" a little; don't worry about not sounding perfect when you speak, no one gets better at a new lanugage without making mistakes in the beginning. The more you allow yourself to make mistakes, the less nervous you will be.
