A place to practice speaking and share your opinion about daily topics or questions.

The main purpose of the group is to talk as often as possible by answering to the various daily topics or questions via recordings. Sometimes we may not find a partner at a certain amount of time for practicing speaking online, or may not have opportunities to speak English every day; in that case here is the place. Aside from that, recording your vocal messages may also help others to practice their listening comprehension, to get used to different accents, and to learn something interesting from you. It might track your progress as well. As the old saying goes, "practice makes perfect." Now, it's time to get the ball rolling.

    Welcome to this group, Ahmed atef!

    Regarding improving pronunciation, you can take a look at teacher Gabriel's posts Phonemes and Pronunciation. He is such an amazing teacher who is good at these fields. Hope you find your need from there. In my opinion, as long as people can understand what you are saying with correct pronunciation, having some Arabic accent in English might not be a big problem. So, join us to speak and practice more anytime.

    Good luck, Ahmed atef!
