5 Days to Improve Your Speaking!


Welcome to Day 1 - Today's challenges

Here is Tim's question for you today:
Look at the video from Day 3 in the series: 5 days to improve your pronunciation. Can you spot three items that are in Tim's room in that video, that aren't in today's video?


Tim's tips
Today Tim talks about what it means to be a good speaker, and he gives an overview of areas that feature in the days to come.

Being a good speaker involves combining different skills: from vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation and listening.

It's not easy! So be prepared to work at it, and you shouldn't expect instant results.

You need to have confidence in yourself, and although accuracy is important, don't be too worried about making mistakes. 

One of the important areas to think about is pronunciation. Clear pronunciation is essential to being a good speaker and today Tim directs you to some of the BBC Learning English pronunciation resources.
