Lesson 1 Do I Have To Sound Like A Native Speaker?: Jinping
Lesson 1 Do I Have To Sound Like A Native Speaker?: Jinping
Lesson 1
Do I have to sound like a native speaker?
Jinping: I have learned English for almost 15 years. I have no problem with
reading and listening. But speaking has always been a problem for me because
when I was at school, we always focused on grammar, vocabulary and exams.
Now I really want to improve my spoken English to a new level, achieve that free
speaking in the near future. Do you have any good suggestions on how to
achieve this?
Richard Hallows: Learners of English often worry about speaking like a native
speaker. I think it’s important that they should realize this is not the way you need
to speak. Most of the time our listeners are speaking to other non-native
speakers of English, so they need to be intelligible to those people. It’s not
necessary to have a native accent.
