hello kavita,
first of all i would like to appreciate everyone's suggestions. i want to share my personal experience in this matter,though a bit time taking but a worthy & result-giving task.
* try to give them a small story or any small paragraphs in hindi/their regional language, ask them to translate it in english at home this is because if anyone cant write accurately in english , then he/she will not be able to speak correctly in english, so give them small translation practice. you can at the other day while taking your english session address every one and provide them the translated answers to those paragraphs given earlier , during this session u can explain them how you translated it sentence by sentence.
* suggest them to give their half an hour everyday in reading newspaper or any simply written novel.
Hope these suggestions will help you some where, but make sure u ask them to learn grammar rules, tenses, and few words of vocabulary every day.
Regards

Dear Kavita,
Regards! English is a language and it comes with practice! It can\'t be learnt overnight. Whosoever is the group of people just make them speak and
ask them to avoid other languages in routine work; then you will surely get the result.
( Avoid does not mean to disrespect but for the sake of learning stick with English)

Dear Kavitha..

Pl go through the below steps... I have practiced 6 months back in my organization.. to improve english communication .....

i. Observe the mouth movements of those who speak English well and try to imitate them.

When you are watching television, observe the mouth movements of the speakers. Repeat what they are saying, while imitating the intonation and rhythm of their speech.

ii. Until you learn the correct pronunciation and rhythm of English, slow your speech down.

If you speak too quickly, and with the wrong intonation and rhythm, native speakers will have a hard time understanding you.

Don't worry about your listener getting impatient with your slow speech -- it is more important that everything you say be understood.



iii. Listen to the 'music' of English.



Do not use the 'music' of your native language when you speak English. Each language has its own way of 'singing'. First understand the lyrics then hear the song.

iv. Use the dictionary.

Try and familiarise yourself with the phonetic symbols of your dictionary. Look up the correct pronunciation of words that are hard for you to say. (Thesaurus)

v. Make a list of frequently used words that you find difficult to pronounce and ask someone who speaks the language well to pronounce them for you.

Record these words, listen to them and practice saying them. Listen and read at the same time.

vi. Pronounce the ending of each word.

Pay special attention to 'S' and 'ED' endings. This will help you strengthen the mouth muscles that you use when you speak English.



vii. Read aloud in English for 15-20 minutes every day.



Research has shown it takes about three months of daily practice to develop strong mouth muscles for speaking a new language.

viii. Record your own voice and listen for pronunciation mistakes.

Many people hate to hear the sound of their voice and avoid listening to themselves speak. However, this is a very important exercise because doing it will help you become conscious of the mistakes you are making.

ix. GROUP DISCUSSION.

This is the best technique to learn and improve the English communication skill quickly. Choose the word on daily basis and discuss them between friend's circle by giving examples. Everyone in the group is having different opinion. Thus, more concrete idea develops during the usability.

Daily Exercise...........

Now a days.. we initiated to display daily two words..... ask everyone to search their meaning.. and we gather for 10 minutes at the end of the day.. and do group discussion on both words..

Hope this exercise will help you lot............

Regards....

Hello Kavith
Don't bother about learning English or any other language. There is proverb in Hindi i.e "Basha seekh ne se nahi bole ne se ataa hai". So you proceed for speaking in English with selective words in which you are having authority and create meaningful sentences. You continue this by learning new words and terminologies. Your vocabulary will definitely improve with in the time you expect.

Dear Kavitha,

there are 3 easy steps that any student can take to accelerate their English learning. These steps produce faster results and a more enjoyable learning process.

1. Focus On Input, Not On Output

Most English students and teachers focus on language output- on speaking and writing activities. Yet, research shows that the key to excellent speaking is actually input-- listening and reading.

2. Stop Studying Grammar

Analytical grammar study simply does not work. Countless research studies show that grammar study is ineffective and inefficient. Yet, grammar-based activities form the bulk of instruction at most schools.

Grammar is best learned naturally and intuitively through meaningful input activities. Listening to correct grammar repeatedly is the best possible way to improve-- not by studying grammar rules. Learning grammar subconsciously in this way has been shown to be the fastest method for improvement.

3. Repeat More And Go Slowly

A surprising key to faster learning is to go more slowly. In schools, students often rush through their textbooks. As a result, they never learn the material deeply. Nothing is mastered. The material never leaves short-term memory.

By following these three easy steps, any English student can dramatically improve their learning speed.

Listen,Speak ,Read and Write ............these are the steps to learn any language....But somehow our people teach just opposite!

Dear Friend if you are thinking about the improvement in spoken english, then it comes only, if they speak. Debate and general discussion among the employees is very help full.

Dear Kavitha,

There are a number of good suggestions from our friends of Cite HR.

However, one basic aspect needs to be clear first - what is the proficiency/language level of the group? Accordingly, plan their programs. A few tips (summarizing some of the points too):

1. Have min one weekly session of at least 2 hrs and daily 10-min sessions with an individual /small subgroups.

2. The sessions need to be interactive and group strength should be max 20 - 25 (ideal).i

3. Some ideas for an interactive session:

a) Have a topic or a picture - the group can be divided into teams of 4-5 and they should make some presentation (with or w/o aids)

b) A film review - based on some recent film

c) Debates

d) Group discussions

e) Have an audio (similar to IELTS series) and give them a mock test

f) Grammar Quiz - dividing into 4 or 5 teams. You be the quizmaster.

I can give you more suggestions but pl give me the pre-training assessment (overview) to guide you further.

Wishing you all the best.

Hello Kavitha,
I am not sure whether this posting is too late.
A host of excellent suggestions have been already posted by several members.
Ask the trainees to make small sentences.
Same rule is to be followed in all forms of communication.
spoken or written or reading or listening.
Let this trend continue as far as possible.
It will produce amazing results.
