SPEAKING TIPS

TIP 1 : USE SOME CONNECTORS TO

IMPROVE FLUENCY AND COHESION
 1.COMMON CONNECTORS TO GIVE IDEAS:

 IN MY OPINION…
 IN MY VIEW…
 IN MY PERSPECTIVE…
I WOULD SAY…
 AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED…
 TO MY MIND,…
 CONNECTORS TO ADD IDEAS:

 ON TOP OF THAT,…
 ALSO,…
 WHAT’S MORE…
 I’D ALSO ADD THAT…
 IN ADDITION TO THIS,…
 FURTHERMORE,…
 MOREOVER,…
 CONNECTORS TO CONTRAST IDEAS:

 BUT,…
 HOWEVER,…
 CONTRARY TO THIS,…
 ON THE OTHER HAND,…
 WHILE THAT’S TRUE. I ALSO THINK…
 AT THE SAME TIME,…
DO YOU THINK IT’S IMPORTANT FOR
FRIENDS TO LAUGH TOGETHER?
 TOMY MIND IT’S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT
BECAUSE IT HELPS US TO CHILL OUT. ON
TOP OF THAT, I THINK LAUGHING IS A
GREAT WAY TO STAY HEALTHY AND
POSITIVE. I HAVEN’T BEEN GOING OUT
WITH MY FRIENDS LATELY, BUT WHEN WE
DO GO OUT TOGETHER, WE ABSOLUTELY
LOVE TO CRACK A FEW JOKES.
TIP 2: USE SOME COMPLEX GRAMMAR
 CLAUSES:SUB ORDINATE CLAUSES, DEPENDANT AND NON-
DEPENDANT CLAUSES & RELATIVE CLAUSES AS WELL AS
DIFFERENT TENSE FORMS.

 EXAMPLE
 WHERE DO YOU LIVE?
 I LIVE IN KUWAIT. I HAVE BEEN LIVING HERE FOR 2 YEARS
NOW.
 DO YOU THINK HISTORY IS IMPORTANT?
 ON THE ONE HAND, IT IS IMORTANT BECAUSE I THINK IT
SHAPES OUR IDENTITY, BUT ON THE OTHER HAND I’VE
BEEN READING A FEW HISTORY BOOKS RECENTLY AND IT
STRIKES ME THAT HISTORY HAS A HABIT OF REPEATING
ITSELF - IT SEEMS WE NEVER LEARN.
TIP 3: USE IDIOMATIC EXPRESSIONS
 MANY PHRASAL VERBS ARE IDIOMATIC.
 IDIOMATIC PHRASE IS ONE IN WHICH THE MEANING OF THE
PHRASE IS DIFFERENT FROM THE INDIVIDUAL WORDS.
 EXAMPLE: I WAS CHILLING OUT WITH MY FRIENDS.
 (IT DOES NOT MEAN I WAS COLD, IT JUST MEANS I WAS
RELAXING.)
 TO CHILL OUT = TO RELAX
 EXAMPLE 2: THEY PULL IN A HUGE NUMBER OF TOURISTS
BECAUSE THE VIEWS ARE OUTSTANDING. (PULL IN = ATTRACT)
 EXAMPLE 3: THEIR QUALITY OF SERVICE IS SECOND TO NONE.
(SECOND TO NONE= THE VERY BEST)
TIP 4: USE SYNONYMS AND ANTONYMS

 SYNONYM= ANOTHER WORD HAVING SAME MEANING

 ANTONYM= ANOTHER WORD HAVING OPPOSITE MEANING
 EXAMPLE: DO YOU LIKE TO GO TO THE ZOO?
 TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I AM NOT REALLY INTO ZOOS.
ACTUALLY I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS A LOT
RECENTLY, AND I GET THAT ZOOS CAN BE EDUCATIONAL,
BUT I DON’T THINK IT’S FAIR TO KEEP WILD ANIMALS
COOPED UP IN SMALL CAGES. THEY SHOULD BE OUT IN THE
WILD.
 I’M NOT REALLY INTO= I DISLIKE (ANTONYM OF LIKE)
 I GET THAT= I UNDERSTAND
TIP 5 : ADD ADVERBS

 ABSOLUTELY
 TOTALLY
REALLY
 COMPLETELY
 EXTREMELY

 RARELY
 HARDLY EVER NOT OFTEN
 ONCE IN A BLUE MOON
TIP 5 : ADD ADVERBS
EXAMPLE: HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO AN
ART GALLERY?

 TOBE HONEST, I’VE BEEN VISITING QUITE

A FEW ART GALLERIES RECENTLY
BECAUSE MY WIFE IS A BIT OF AN ART
BUFF. WE WENT TO A MODERN ART
EXHIBITION LAST WEEK AND I WAS
COMPLETELY BOWLED OVER BY THE
PAINTINGS, THEY WERE TOTALLY OUT OF
