Well, what do you mean by practicing?If you see the word practice in the dictionary it also means "the customary, habitual, or expected procedure or way of doing of something." Doctors practice medicine and Lawyers practice the law. By this corelation , whatever you do in the English Language, you are actually practicing it. Converse without any self doubt or inhibitions, enjoy the process of being corrected. Read what you write, speal what you read and hear what you say until you can sing it to yourself. Immerse yourself into the beauty of the language. The beauty of expression and the beauty of limitations. Talk to me and i will share the joys of learning with you. read less

Repeat after someone i.e a person who is hosting a show in English. Try to grasp the fluency of the person. This is also a kind of practice :)

Start to "think" using English language. Always thought comes before spoken word.Let me quote Mr. Narayan Murthy(Infosys) who said Chinese can learn English language but cannot think in Englishh like Indians - this was in response to competition from China in IT sector.
