Good morning, everyone!

Today, I’d like to talk about a topic that is very important for us as college students — the importance of English speaking skills. In our daily lives, whether it's in class, during group discussions, or even in social activities, we often need to express ourselves clearly and confidently in English.

As university students, we are not only learning knowledge, but also preparing for the future. In an increasingly globalized world, English has become the most widely used language in business, science, technology, and culture. Therefore, being able to speak English well is not just a skill, but a necessity.

However, many of us still find it difficult to give a speech in English. Some may feel nervous, some may lack confidence, and others may not know how to organize their thoughts. But the truth is, with practice and effort, anyone can improve their speaking ability.

First of all, we should build a strong foundation. This includes vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. The more words we know, the better we can express our ideas. Also, correct grammar and clear pronunciation help us be understood by others.

Secondly, practice is key. Don’t be afraid to speak up in class or join English clubs. Even if you make mistakes, it's part of the learning process. The more you speak, the more confident you will become.

Thirdly, listening to native speakers can greatly improve our speaking skills. Whether it's through movies, podcasts, or online videos, hearing how others use English can help us understand its rhythm, tone, and expressions.

In conclusion, English speaking is an essential skill for every college student. It opens up new opportunities and helps us connect with people from different cultures. Let’s take this challenge seriously and work hard to improve our abilities. With time and effort, we can all become confident and fluent English speakers.

Thank you for listening!
