let's have a free talk!
When I was a freshman(大一)in Xi'an International Studies University（西安外国语大学）, I felt really unconfident. My spoken English was very poor at that time and I have a clear northern accent（口音）. When I was a middle school student,I just thought if I could do the exercises correctly, I would be excellent. In fact I was totally wrong. I know clearly that English is just a tool for us to communicate with each other. if you can't speak it, it's useless.
Then I made up my mind to change. I listened to tapes again and again to practice my listening and speaking skills（技能）； I tried hard to take part in discussions in class and went to the English Corner every night and so on. I felt difficult at first, but gradually my oral English bocame better and better day by day. When I gave a speech(演讲) in my speech class, my teacher and classmates were all surprised at my progress and changes. They all praised（夸奖） me.
When we face difficulties, we just need to overcome them instead of giving up. I hope you can have confidence in yourself and try to make changes to become a better “yourself”.
