Improve intonation and pronunciation from "summary" of The English Fluency Formula by Gabby Go Natural English
Improving intonation and pronunciation is key to speaking English fluently. An effective way to do that is to focus on the rhythm of the language and practice by speaking out loud regularly. With practice, anyone can improve their English pronunciation and intonation.- Practicing intonation and pronunciation will help improve your English. To get started, make sure to speak out loud and think about the changes in pitch that you would like to apply when pronouncing each word.
- Read aloud aloud as another great way to become more aware of the tones and pitches that you are using in public. You can choose poems, short stories or any writings that you like.
- When making some tricky sounds, try exaggerating them to find the right position of the mouth. For example, for the letter R, practice saying words like "tree" or "breakfast" loudly multiple times.
- Take advantage of online platforms such as forums and social media groups to receive feedback from native speakers and practice speaking with others. Make sure to give feedback too to encourage a friendly interactive atmosphere.
- Make learning fun! Break down large topics into small pieces for better understanding and engagement. Look for activities such as singing a song or creating a dialogue with friends to have meaningful conversations.
