In today's world where it doesn't matter whether you know your native language or not but you must know how to speak English. Since the world has 195 countries with each having a different language it becomes necessary to have a single communication mode of language. When India itself speaks 23 different languages then how can we not consider others? The most spoken language in the world is Chinese and then English. It might be a question that if Chinese is spoken more then why we emphasize on English. This is because English is established in 106 countries as compared to Chinese in 37. So we emphasize more on English than Chinese.
Although English is used the most but there are some places where it is not used so commonly. People living in such areas are not so fluent in English. But due to increasing popularity and use, it is important to know and speak English confidently and fluently. People who are not fluent in English feel shy and uncomfortable in speaking this language. So to improve English here I am sharing some ways.
