By Peter Wilson


There are people who knows different languages and they could use this as an advantage in their chosen field of work. Or these could be an additional source of income as a part time translator or teacher. They will not be having a hard time in traveling to other places if they already know the language of that particular place as well.

Having knowledge in that language does not mean that you are good in conversing with others. The conversational English to Tagalog speakers have some differences when speaking to native speakers that can confuse them. Here are some study guides in helping you improve your conversational skills.

Study and learn new words that are possibly useful in daily conversations. This will improve your vocabulary which can help you to properly convey the meaning of your message. Some basic words which are used commonly by native speakers are not common with non native speakers and must be remembered and learned.

Some words are also used differently by Filipinos and could be not the proper way of saying what you really mean. When these are used with other Filipinos, the meaning could be understood by them but when spoken at other English speakers may mean different. Identify these words or phrases and replace it with the proper corresponding words that must be used instead.

Learn the proper pronunciation and practice speaking it in front of the mirror. This would help in familiarizing the correct way of saying it and use it in a sentence to better understand its meaning. Make of possible scenarios in your head that could happen which you can possible use these words.

Meet and try to make friends with native speakers by practicing with them what you have learned so far. This has an added benefit of possibly having a new friend while improving your conversational skills. You could also probably pick up new words that you might use in the future too.

Improving this skill is important and can be used on many situations and improve the opportunities available. You will be more confident when speaking with others and are able to express what you really want to. If you are still in school, this is a great help in class specially during reporting and other oral activities.

Possible promotions and growth in your career may be made available due to this. This is an advantage that you can use when talking with your fellow employees and to those in higher positions in the company you are working at. When you are tasked to present a report, you will now have more confidence and the task will be easier for you to do and will impress those who will be listening. This is specially useful when a lot of employees or even the owners are foreigners.

This will also give you an edge if you are working in an industry like the business process outsourcing that requires their employees to speak in English. Understanding your customers now is a lot easier and helping them with their concerns is not a problem anymore as well. Other opportunities may possibly open up when you have an improved English conversational skill.
