Hi Navya! Apart from making conversation with others in the English language, which will give you practice and help build your confidence, reading is a great way to expand your vocabulary. It also helps to gain exposure to different ways of forming sentences to convey ideas.Pick up something simple, something within your reading level, and set a time to read a little bit every day -- before going to bed at night works for me. If a book is too hard to understand, pick up something simpler -- you'll know when you find something that works for you. Eventually, your reading level will go up, and you'll also start to understand the grammatical patterns of the language. You'll also learn new words and understand how to use them. Different writers have different styles, so you'll also see how other writers choose to get their message across.You can also go a step further and do a little bit of writing yourself. You can maintain a journal in which you can document experiences from time to time or occasionally write about your day. It's always nice to go back and read what you wrote a while back.Finally, always try to use the language in the conversation wherever possible. That will give you a chance to put what you learned to practice.All the best! read less

Please join a spoken English class. Before that, please go through the videos given online on YouTube. Start with the sounds of each letter. Even I'm a Telugu person. The sounds are very different.

Everyone wants to speak fluently, and trust me; it will only be learnt by practice. It's not a day-night thing, but it takes time. Communication skills are such a term which itself define it- A skill that comes from practice. So to improve communication skills, the only productive step is to communicate as much as possible. You may follow specific steps: You can join any English speaking course where you will be provided with an environment to communicate but only through English. Face the mirror and speak, act and talk to yourself. Watch English/Hindi(preferable language) series and try to imitate them. Irfan Khan mentioned he never took English classes, but he called on customer care service and opted to talk with an English executive. The executive doesn't know you, so why don't you give it a shot. Learn one or two sentences or more in a day and try to use that particular sentence as many times as possible in a day. Choose a random topic and speak on it and record it to listen and work on yourself. Reading improves fluency and also improves speaking skills. Decide a topic and discuss it for 10-20 minutes with your siblings/friends/family/. You will find a thousand ways to solve your problem, but the only solution holder is you. Believe that you can do it, and you will do it. It will not come in a day or two but every day's practice which helps you eliminate shyness and nervousness. It just gets you comfortable with the procedure that it takes nothing to express your thoughts or to communicate. All you just have to do is believe yourself and speak; whatever the language you choose, you are bright. I hope this helps. Thanks! read less
