Some advice to learners who wants to improve their speaking skills in English I think it's reallly easy to solve problem with the speaking skills now, because there are a lot of specific sites at which you can find people for talking to in English. They can be from the UK, or USA, or Canada, or another non-English speaking country and have different levels of using English. (These sites can help improve speaking skills not only in English.) Be carefull, some of they aren't free. Another one way which can help you is talking to oneself. It's great technique, because you don't need look for somebody else/ What's more you can choose the appropriate time and place, but better practisice at home, not at public places, because people will think that you're going crazy. So, choose the topic and express your opinion. It would be more useful if you recorded your speech and then listened and found mistakes. For improving pronounciation you should listhen to podcasts, repeat, and analize stresses and intonation as often as possible. I hope these advice will be usuful for anyone.
