Dear all,

Some people think that speaking too much can get one in trouble! I disagree! I think the more you speak while learning a language, the more you will learn, especially if it is a 'non native' speaking environment.
What are the best ways to improve speaking as a skill? How can students learn to be confident and not think about all the possible mistakes? How can students practice speaking in English outside the classroom? Positive reinforcement? More audio, movies and filed trips? How about a Western penpal? Get them to write to a teenager from another country? Would that interest you as a student?
Peace!
