So what next? Or am I doing right?

[Ash33]

So I'm improving my spoken English and it's been like 2 months of being serious about it. I have tried accent reduction (so I can't fumble more), reading books out loud, recorded myself reading books. And now I found an app, it has small English conversations which I'm practicing. Those conversations r 1-2 minutes long. But took me approximately 10 minutes to practice one. 10 mins per day is seems less imo. I should practice it at least for an hour. What u think? Do you guys have any ideas to suggest?

@Zhingy33 You can't change your accent unless you are living in the English-speaking community whose accent you want to emulate; besides that, it is said that the older you get, the harder it is to "correct" it.

Personally, I believe native-like accent is overrated, since you can still be proficient despite having a tad strong accent.

But if you still want to de-indianize your English pronunciation, and due to your conditions there's no other way than trying to interact (a lot) verbally with NATIVE people online, maybe through voice notes or voice chat.

In the other hand, I think you should improve your grammar as well, specially the use of tenses. I think your mistakes in this area is mostly because you may not know the uses of each tense, so you just generalize the main rules:

Anyways, I like your accent even if sometimes I have to replay some voice notes (and I'm just bad at listening) xD but sometimes I feel it's more about the insecurity in your speech than the accent itself.

Ehh, I'm not the best to judge these matters, though! Ask Janet, Morf or Cyber xD

@DaNii
I don't want to change my accent. I just want to reduce it so English speaking will be effortless and people will understand what I'm saying without listening my voice nodes again n again 😂
