Speaking English is increasingly important, just because it is the most popular language in the world. Many people decided to learn to speak English for different purposes: some of them learn for business, some of them learn for the pleasure ... etc.
Before starting to learn English you should know the correct method to do so. When you know the correct method is going to be easy, and finally you will be able to speak English fluently.
To be fluent means that you speak naturally without thinking what you should to say. To achieve this you can avoid all formal techniques and useless methods.
Many students think that grammar is everything. They think that when they learn grammar it help them to speak speak, but the truth is the opposite of that. English grammar does not help students to speak. Many students get stuck to this idea because they don't know the truth.
Memorizing lists of words does not help such as the grammar. If you memorize lists of words, perhaps you will never speak. Every time you talk, you begin to think of the wordyou should use. It does not help with speaking fluency at all.
If you think your English speaking can be improved simply by reading some books, you will never speak English, because the rule is very simple: reading helps you with writing skills.
Listening is what you need to learn to speak English. Yes, listening is everything if you want to improve your fluency in English. When you listen to English you acquire the way the English speakers talk. It helps you to talk without thinking. It also helps you improve your pronunciation in English.
Listening can also improve your grammar. Many students do not think so, but it's true. A six year old can speak English very well, with clear pronunciation and correct English grammar, and this is without studying English grammar and without memorizing lists of words.
If you want to speak English fluently, forget about English grammar and word lists and just focus on listening to real English conversations.
