First, determine your own level of English. The common problem of Chinese university graduates is that they can read in writing, but they are not good in speaking, their hearing is very poor, and their writing is okay. But everyone's specific situation is different, some people read professional books at a glance and ten lines, but it is very difficult to read newspapers.
It's okay for someone to listen to the news, but not for anything else. You have to know yourself first and then tailor your situation to the right one.
It's best to find someone who is good at English to do this kind of assessment for you, and if it's not convenient, you can only evaluate yourself, so you should try to be objective.
Second, determine your pronunciation level. A friend of mine told me that his pronunciation was fine, but I couldn't understand a lot of the words he said.
It doesn't matter if you learn British or American, it will definitely come out of your mouth in the end. The most important thing is to pronounce it reasonably. Every word in English has its own way of pronouncing it, and you can't just imagine it.
For example, some people pronounce resume as re-'soom, in this way, others say re-siu-'May, you don't know what. You pronounce re-'Soom, no one else understands.
Thirdly, determine your English learning goals. I'm only aiming for oral communication here.
Finally, start learning.
1. The key to oral learning is to imitate other people's speech. This includes both speech and intonation. There is very little emphasis on intonation in the teaching of English in China, although in many cases intonation may be more important than pronunciation.
2. Buy a tape recorder and find a cassette tape. Depending on your level, you can choose the second or third volume of the new concept, or you can go to the library and borrow a set of short stories with books and tapes. Note:
There must be a book, the story should not be too long, the number of words should be small, and it doesn't matter if it is too simple.
I tend to use stories rather than dialogue or news-listening material.
3. Carry out follow-up training. Play the tape, read the book, figure out the meaning of each word, and understand the whole storyline. Then, put a sentence, pause, learn to read a sentence, and then, put down a sentence, pause, learn another sentence, and continue.
4. Points to pay attention to in the process of reading: (1) Be sure to try your best to imitate pronunciation and intonation, the more like the better.
2) You can start slowly, and gradually keep up with the speed of others. (3) You can rewind and replay in the middle, but I tend to ask everyone to finish a short section and then go back and do it again.
Pay attention to intonation and voice. It doesn't matter if there is a stutter in the middle, keep reading and then come back and reread it.
6. Turn off the tape recorder and recite the text. Pay attention to the tone of your voice that you learn.
In this way, after a month or two, when you have "intensively read" five to ten articles of about 1,000 words, you will notice that your English pronunciation and listening have improved significantly.
Combined with other learning, such as chatting with people, watching TV, listening to the radio, etc., the speaking level will be significantly improved.

HTT how to learn English well, I have summarized the following points. FYI.
First of all, to learn English well, the most important thing is to be interested. As the saying goes: interest is the best teacher.
We were taught English by a young teacher who was very funny and always let us give lectures and skits on our own. The vivid English teaching made me have a strong interest in English.
It's not enough to be interested, we also have to know how to learn.
Let's talk about memorizing words first! For many students, memorizing words is undoubtedly a painful task. When I memorize words, I don't memorize them one by one in the word book, which makes it easy for people to get bored and forget.
I draw a few backs on each page, and it's very random. In normal times, we can make some small cards, write down the difficult ones on them, and come out and read them whenever we have time, or we can put some cards at the bedside and look at them a few times every day before going to bed. It is more effective to have a charade with your dormitory classmates before going to bed.
Every time, everyone guesses the words they learned that day, so that they can remember it firmly. Of course, the most important thing in memorizing words is to review them continuously.
Students have a headache with reading comprehension, one is the time is tight, and the other is difficult to understand. If you're short on time, I'll teach you a trick. That is, treat each practice as an exam, set a time limit for yourself, and guess what you can't finish.
Over time, you will have an invisible alarm clock in your mind, so that you always have a sense of urgency when working on the problem. After practicing for a long time, you will get used to it.
For comprehension, I feel that we should broaden the scope of reading. We can read English newspapers or magazines. When I was a freshman, I watched "English Salon" in both Chinese and English.
Later, as my vocabulary increased, I began to read English newspapers. I often read Shanghai Star. The newspaper covers a wide range of topics, and is relatively shallow and easy to understand.
When I read the newspaper, I don't like to look it up word by word, guess new words when I come across them, and copy good words and phrases when I come across them. In the past three years, I have several such small excerpts. In short, reading English newspapers can not only absorb more knowledge, but also cultivate a sense of language and practice reading speed.
Hearing is also a headache for everyone. To improve listening ability, it is not enough to use listening tapes alone. There are other ways to do this, such as listening to the news in English.
I often listen to Live It Up Shanghai, which aired at 11 o'clock at night on Shanghai 990. Another way is to go to the English Corner. I've been at the English Corner since last year, where a large group of English lovers get together and talk and talk in English.
Sometimes there is also the opportunity to have intimate contact with foreigners. Speak more and listen more, and your listening and speaking skills will improve unconsciously.
To learn English, you must also learn to be a caring person. Every time you see an English signboard on the street or an English abbreviation on the Internet, have you ever thought about its full name? BBS, everyone has used it, but do you know that its full name is bulletin board system?

Listen more, your hearing will improve, and if you listen to the same content several times, you can blurt it out.
You can try to listen to it with "Big Mouth English", a good software, which is particularly convenient for dictation and effective in improving listening. If you want to improve your spoken English, you can use "3000 Sentences of Situational Speaking in English". The attachment is.

Since it is spoken, it is very important to speak frequently.
Of course, there are many ways to practice speaking. If you are alone, it is recommended to listen to more English songs, and you can learn to sing along to develop a sense of language. You can also print out some classic movie scripts or lines, read them over and over again, and imitate them.
Why is it not recommended to recite celebrity speeches, because some celebrities may give speeches in a special context of the times, which is not quite in line with our current pragmatic habits.
If you have a companion, it is advisable to start a debate rather than a chat. Because the content of the chat is limited and superficial, you can't really improve your critical thinking ability, and you can't improve your language expression ability.
The best practice is to have a language environment, and it is really better to communicate with foreigners.
Hope it helps.

Speaking English well, the most important point of the colloquial language is the confidence of the sedan chair boy.
In the study of English, efforts should be made to improve listening.
