Tip 1 When you study, make your mouth do what your mind is learning. If you read aloud, you make your mouth and your mind work. This will help you with both speech and pronunciation（发音）．

　　Tip 2 Talk to yourself as much as possible. You need to be comfortable making sounds in English. All over the day, talk to yourself in English! This will help you feel comfortable thinking in English. Then write down what you are saying and read it aloud again.

　　Tip 3　Have a “study buddy (partner)”. Get together with him or her at least once a week and study together. Speak as much English as you can whenever you meet. Then you can help each other.
