Reading Comprehension

The 7even Principles

1. Get Emotionally connected. If possible, then either take a stand and vehemently support that stand of yours.
2. Look for the simple story/ gist of the passage  
3. Link to what you already know. Concretizing method can be useful here. 
4. Unpack the beginning : into simple sentences.
5. As you continue reading further, link those to what you have already read in previous paragraphs.
6. Pay attention to various signals.
7. Pick up pace for rest of the paragraphs.

Spoken English

1. Improve pronunciation and diction

There are a few tricks to making a vernacular accent more globally understandable.

~ Try making sure that 'air' comes out of your mouth when saying the letters, 'T, P, K' and the sound 'Ch'.

~ Focus on elongating your vowel sounds. This will also automatically slow down your rate of speech.

~ Sing English songs out loud!

~ Watch news shows on channels like CNN and BBC.

~ The web site www.m-w.com is great for pronunciation help.

~ I would also suggest buying books on pronunciation and language that come with audio cassettes.

A good book that I found really useful was Better English Pronunciation by J D O'Connor. It is part of the Cambridge series, and some of those books come with cassettes.

3. Five exercises to practise every day!

i. Pretend you are a newscaster and read out the newspaper to your mirror.

ii. Do not read local newspapers. Focus on national newspapers.

iii. While reading a book, underline all the words you do not know. Look them up in the dictionary.

iv. Make a list of these words, and make sure you use at least five of them in a conversation during the day.

v. Most important, make an effort to speak in English to your friends and family.

English - Improvements Needed

"The Problem is that I take lot of time
- Be Fast enough. Take a pause and then tell the complete sentence.
- Read out a phrase and record it everyday. Check improvement.
- Accent will come later. First fluent english with minimum pauses. "

So, Immediate Goal -

SPEAK FLUENT ENGLISH
-- Take a small pause before answering.
-- No pause in between. For that, you first clear your mind. Dont make your thoughts complicated.
   Dont think, what will other's reaction to my answer. If something is true, say it. Don't run away from stating the TRUTH.
-- Then sometimes, you are short of words - build vocabulary.
   Now, listen to speeches, TV shows and movie dialogues. Also, observe lip movement. Correct written English also.
