Extract from the article :
“Watch the shape of your mouth and your facial expressions. Pronouncing words correctly has a lot to do with getting your mouth in the right shape to make the necessary sound. By speaking in front of a mirror, you can see what your mouth and face are doing and correct what’s wrong before it becomes engrained.
- The mirror also creates an illusion that you have a partner, which can help build your confidence without the stress of talking to a native speaker.
- Work on sounding more conversational or natural—not being grammatically perfect every time. Try mimicking the musicality and rhythm of native speakers”
