The debate about learning English as a second language is important to emphasize that more will continue until the

government find a solution that drastically and good for all parties. Hopefully it will get done quickly, before too late. It is very sad to see high school students and graduates of our universities are struggling to speak English properly. Recently, when we discuss this issue with a friend, Mr. Shahridzuan who is an English lecturer, he said that he was also facing the same problems to educate students who attend English classes. He said the level of understanding of English, whether in writing or orally at the present younger generation as a whole slightly decreased .In fact, the lack of good communication skills in English among university graduates are often regarded as one of the main reasons for their inability to get good jobs. In the era of information explosion and rapid improvement of communications, we know that knowledge is the key to improving our economic development and international relations. Thus, in the language skills in all areas - reading, comprehension, writing, listening, vocabulary, expression and speech is very important. English is the most important medium in which knowledge is disseminated. Unfortunately, according to Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin , many students still cannot master English while they learn the language at school for 13 years. Two years ago, there were reports that authorities in Beijing to most people learn English in the Chinese capital transformation become a "world city". We need to control the use of English if we want to achieve global progress. It is not enough if only a few ministers, corporate leaders, writers and people who were educated in English schools as well as a small number of young people can speak the language fluently. We must be united and immediately find a way to restore the situation get this bad.There are several reasons why a person is unable to speak English: shame; fear; refused to try to speak; mixed with people who are not very encouraging; compare yourself with people who are fluent; shy to talk to people who are fluent; problem understanding and Lastly, do not believe in yourself. We need to create opportunities to speak English in school, work, during breaks, along with others who can speak the language, answering phone calls, in the restaurant spoke English and with family members. The language can also be

enhanced when using the internet - send email, when meeting with strangers (tourists), at the business premises (supermarkets, travel agencies, clinics, insurance companies, cinemas, etc.), attend English classes or join a club / association English. The students often ask, 'Why do some people can speak English well and smoothly?' The answer is 'environment'. We often tell them that some people can speak English properly as they are brought up by parents or guardians who speak English in everyday contexts.It may also be because they were English educated from childhood. Some are fluent because they often travelled or have been resident in the country who speak English.Some people may speak very well may be because they find their spouse or domestic helpers who can only speak English. Some people can speak in the language after working in office environment / company who only use English as the language of delivery or work in the tourism and hospitality industry. We always tell our students' English class that there are some things that "Can and Cannot be" made in learning this language.A student cannot sit still when listening to English even standing or sitting with bad posture while studying. They do not have to keep the negative perception of the English language or herself as, "English is hard to dipelajar." What should you do is, stay focused in class. We encourage them to move their bodies while learning English in addition to using gestures as movement can help remind the words / phrases that are difficult. They are also reminded to learn to listen carefully, always adopt a positive belief about the English and ourselves. For example, "English is best for me and I will learn to speak fluent!". We often remind students to keep a smile while studying English, reading short stories to learn quickly. They are also trained to portray themselves speak English fluently in addition to focus and enjoy learning without pressure. There are also ten ways to improve their ability to learn to speak English that they should listen to English radio stations, watch movies and television channels in English, the language karaoke song with the lyrics as well as travel to countries that speak English.Most importantly, they must register with a training center that provides English speaking courses.
