See!! Why most people find writing english easier than speaking it.
Most of us find it more easy to write in English correctly than speaking it. When we get stucked in speaking English in public, it make us look dullardic in nature.
Aristotle a great philosopher says something about language he said "in making a speech one must study three points: First, the means of producing persuasion, second the language, third the proper arrangment of the various parts of speech.
Making a blunder in speaking in english is not a barrier or an embargo. It is just that we dont follow the rule of how it is been used. Using Nigeria as a case study, it has plenty of native language which english is not among. English is a foreign language in Nigeria, which is the official language only because English has tends to be a universal language. It is normal you are fluent in your native language than your foreign language .But am not going deeply into that. Am more concern on why we find English more fluent in writing than speaking.
Reasearch have give me some hint on why the problem occur:
1. Writing mainly text your knowledge and Grammer. You dont have to get everything correctly at that moment. You can read your answers later and make necessary correction be it grammer, error, spelling and lot more before publishing it, or publicising it.
But, when it comes to talking, getting stuck is very common, this usually happens when you think faster than you speak. So to cope up with the speed of this super fast train of thoughts you get stucked trying to find a word in your vocalbulary.
2. When writing you are not emotionally affected unlike when speaking it.
3. If you spend most time in writing, it is rather common sense you are better at it.
Well, there are zillions of solution for it but i will be giving you the crucial part.
1. Matter your content and relieve your brain of processing this while you are delivering your content.
2. Practise the language you intend to deliver your content in.
3. Record yourself often and listen carefully. Make sure you work on your speed and picth.
4. Practise making eye contact on daily basis with your friends and family. when in group make sure you make an eye contact with of all them.
5. Work on your body language. Make sure you are aware of how you use your hands.
6. Become a good listener. This will help you connect with your audience better and hence deliver better.
Now remember, your result are directly proportional to your sincerity in the following above mention advice. Thanks
