How can we improve our spoken English?
shibli:
Practice speaking English everyday. Find someone that you can practice within the community.
shipra:
If we can't find anyone with whom we can speak English,we can speak with ourselves.Always,we think a lot of things,we converse a lot with ourselves.We can carry on that thinking,that conversation in English.Thinking in English and self-conversation are good ways of practising English.
shibli:
We can improve our listening skills by listening to BBC or other English news channels or movies. In doing so, we should try to focus hard and understand as much as what the speaker is saying.
Reading can be improved by reading English newspapers, novels and also research papers. We should try to increase our speed and try to understand and memorize as much as we can when reading a certain passage.
Writing can be improved by writing more and more………and same is with speaking i.e. we should speak with our family and friends as much as we can.
But apart from this, we should also consult a good dictionary like Oxford or Cambridge Dictionary for Advanced Learners.
We should try and improve our English by the methods mentioned above.
shibli:
Try to relax when you speak. Not only try to get rid of the psychological side of your stress, but also of the physical one. When you are stressed out, all your muscles get tense, including the facial muscles and vocal chords, responsible for the correct pronunciation. That is why it may be hard for you to pronounce English words correctly during face-to-face conversation, although you were able to do it well alone at home.

shibli:
Remember not to speak too fast. Of course, you need to speak in the natural rhythm of the native language, but if you speak too fast your conversation partners will not be able to understand you properly. Therefore, it is better to speak a little bit slower and be sure that you will be correctly understood.
