Activating Your Vocabulary
Activate your vocabulary by thinking or speaking briefly about the subject you are about to work on. For example, if you are going to study English on topics that focuses on vacations, take a moment to think about your last vacation, what you did, what you enjoyed, etc. This simple exercise will help your brain warm-up to vocabulary that you are likely to encounter as you study English about this particular subject.

I remember standing in front of a mirror and talking about how I spent my day during my university days to work with vocabulary and develop fluency. I gave this tip to lot of students later and it works! Some of you might find the idea of talking to oneself in front of the mirror bit funny. ;D

Dear Tahsina:
Nice to know that you practiced a wonderful tip.
Talking before a mirror is an effective method to overcome stage-fright. It helps to improve your presentation skill. Most of the cases, students get lost when they don't get appropriate words to say. In such cases we just provide them with one or two words to carry on their ideas. Definitely, we should not be critical as our simple ignorance may make them demotivated and confused.
