Many students want to speak English like a native. Someone asked me could students get their goal "being a native English speakers" achieved. Why not, I replied .Another question came up how that could happen? How can they speak English fluently? Is there any certain steps to follow to be an American native? My answer is of course, there are. To achieve your goal and be a native speaker you have to consider this: pronunciation and commonly used expressions should be your concern. What I am trying to say is that the more we practice pronunciation and commonly used expressions including the time of using the expressions we will be fluent. What do we mean by pronunciation? Pronunciation is the way we pronounce words or the way words come out of our mouths to achieve pronunciation we have some course that could give you some kind of help in case you are willing to do these course they will be helpful specifically for learning American Accent
