commented

Hello! Thank you for interest. I’d like to try to compare it to my previous experience of learning English through Skype on online classes. I did around 10 conversations over Skype with a native speaker from http://preply.com/en/english-by-skype. And I was pretty satisfied with their Quality. I think they have a strong teaching quality. Following their course curriculum now I can speak English like a native. But I Want to try another option.

It takes time to learn a new language and even more time to speak as a native speaker.
The things you are doing will help you, but you may always pronounce words a little differently and have an accent. But sometimes <a href="http://preply.com/en/english-native-speakers/">speaking english like a native</a> can be easy!

Hello Jennifer - Your advice for students to use a software is nice; however, a second language learner can approximate sounds to the target language through imitation, repetition, metalanguage and various strategies, but he or she will never sound exactly like a native speaker. There are many factors to take into account like physiological aspects of learners - particularly adults - like muscle formation, pitch, intonation, rythym, and reproduction of non-existant sounds of the native language of learners. Therefore, I would not detract from the idea of wanting to sound like an English person, but concentrate on conveying the right set of codes of the target language. After all, a right accent can really be to the speaker´s advantage if the sounds are correctly produced. I usually tell my students to chill out and enjoy learning English.

You should listen to music, watch movie or listen to a radio and get involved with English native speakers.

Do not use very. We are used to strengthening adjectives in English with very. From a grammar point of view, there is nothing criminal about this, but native speakers do not speak that way. Where an English student says very good, the native speaker will say terrific, fabulous, excellent, and instead of very bad, awful, terrible, dreadful. So expand your vocabulary, learn synonyms for the most used words and incorporate them into your speech in English. Here are some more replacements for popular phrases with very. And if you need help writing an essay or essay. If I were you, I would turn to professional writers. https://pro-papers.com/english-writing-service

In my opinion i really think speaking like a native can have impact in two side it might sound well to some folks but to others may be different because of different attitudes and people's perspective it's a good thing to have that expectation of speaking like native but you should consider the environment you speak to the people with different calibre but the only thing i think is good to my side is act natural master the grammar, make your intonation better because the main purpose is to deliver the message to the concerned people that is what i can advise but those are just mt perception but you can fulfill your expecatation by taking other avise from others.

Thank you,
