Sheep or ship?






One day a man went to an English conversation class; before it started, the teacher said to him:
"So, do you speak good English?"
He replied
"I think so"
The teacher said
"It sure sounds like you do".

Imagine yourself, in class, you don't know all about the subject but, when you speak, your pronunciation is great, so great that people believe your English is great too! How would you feel?

Rules to follow
1) Before you start a conversation try to inspire yourself on someone you admire; it may be an actor or singer. It is said that if you imitate someone who speaks really well your chances are better
2) Also, pay attention to the sounds when you are watching a film, listening to a song, or even talking to a native speaker

If nothing works for you, then, a good choice would be practicing the tong twister below

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper.
Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled pepper?
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper,
Where's the peck of pickled pepper Peter Piper picked?

Any questions, write to me.....thanks guys
