3. Check whether the pronunciation is correct: stand in front of the mirror and check the position of your mouth, lips and tongue when you pronounce certain fixed sounds.

4. Stick to slow and steady progress: don't speak English too fast, and ambiguity caused by being too fast is a taboo in spoken English. Practice some basic language units every day, starting with phonetic symbols and syllables, then practicing words with this syllable, and then practicing sentences.

5. Imitation practice: On the basis of mastering the basic phonetic symbols and pronunciation skills, you can choose slow English radio or movies and TV programs to listen to and imitate over and over again until you can master most of the pronunciation and intonation.
