Hi
For anything you do in life, a clear goal /vision, adequate motivation / enthusiasm, hard work / discipline and the ability to take risks/ challenges are critical attributes.
However if you are seeking help in improving your communication skills in a short time, I am afraid it is not so easy. I presume when you refer to communication skills you also mean that you want to improve upon your English Language skills too. What you primarily require is the key attributes called 'discipline' and 'enthusiasm' with which you can achieve anything you want.
Your enthusiasm is the reason you wrote in at Citehr. The next test is to
be disciplined and follow the suggestions given here.
1. My first suggestion is to read as much in English as possible. A
standard daily English Newspaper and the Readers Digest have very good
reading material.
2. Make more English speaking friends and make a determined effort
to speak only in English, even if you keep forgetting words, or tend
to stammer or your friends tend to laugh at you. This will require a
lot of will power but believe me you will soon improve.
3. I would also suggest you try to learn at least 3 -5 new words
and look up the meaning in a dictionary. then try and use these words
in your daily work and in your communication.
4. If you still feel that professional help is needed then you will
have to attend English speaking classes
5. You must also use WORD to type in your written communication and try to correct the errors that show up. This is quick and easy way to improve your written skills. eg. there are a few errors in what you have typed in Citehr regarding your problem, which could easily have been corrected before posting it. Avoid all tendency to use SMS language, short forms, slang etc.
6. Finally, if you can, do visit my blogs listed below regularly and try to learn
the new words in it and also be inspired by it. You can click on the

Hi Suneel
Since you have specifically mentioned spoken English skills, voice and accent, I will give you some tips I use in my training in accent 'neutralisation' (although there is really no such thing as a neutral accent), and not relate this to general communication skills or vocabulary acquisition. Follow these ten golden rules:

Since you have specifically mentioned spoken English skills, voice and accent, I will give you some tips I use in my training in accent 'neutralisation' (although there is really no such thing as a neutral accent), and not relate this to general communication skills or vocabulary acquisition. Follow these ten golden rules:
- Learn the sounds of English (learn the IPA chart)
- Learn to use a dictionary (you need to know the phonemic symbols, therefore number 1 - and no, it is not difficult to learn the chart)
- Train by observing, listening and repeating (observe the mouth - lips, teeth, tongue and jaw movement of good speakers - so, you should use your eyes and not just your ears)
- Record your own voice (you do not hear yourself as other hear you)
- Watch news readers and good actors on TV and listen to good readers/speakers on the radio
- Articulate and internalise, don't just imitate
- Slow down so you can enunciate clearly, even sing the words - this will relax the vocal cords
- Breathe - do Pranayam like Brahmari, deep breathing and even Aumkara (I always start my sessions with 5 minutes of breathing exercises and 5 minutes of mouth and jaw exercises. It makes a huge difference to your articulation)
- Adopt the two P's - Patience and Practice
- Find a good trainer.
