How Can i change my accent?
I have been studying english for months, I actually am trying to learn this language from diferent ways, for example: watching movies, listening music and playing video games...I feel this is working because everyday I can learn diferent things, well one of my way to practice my pronunciation is playing video games but when I am trying to speak english, I feel so unconfortable because when I am listening people from my country speaking english, I say they sounds ugly so I think I have a horrible accent too...What Can i do?

Try 'shadowing.' First you find a nice, clear recording of a someone reading a story out loud. Then you follow along as they read, and repeat everything they say, out loud, as they say it. Try to imitate exactly what you hear, and not how you naturally want to say the words. By doing this regularly, you will not only improve your accent, but you will also be more comfortable reading English at a native-speaker's speed.

If you prefer an accent like British, American, Irish, or another, you can always try to listen to that accent. For example, if you wanted an American accent, you could watch American television shows on the internet.
Hope this helps :)
P.S. I don't think its necessary to change your accent if you don't want to. :)
