Think about being efficient.  Everytime you feel yourself getting excited about a topic and wanting to elaborate, hold off.  This may mean trying to limit your responses to 5 or six pleasant, well- planned words.  Try not to use adjectives- those can get on people's nerves.\nYou can contact a therapist or like it has been noted, a speech pathologist.  Those can be expensive- just try your friends and family, I'm sure they know about your chatty habit and all probably have a few opinions on how you can slow down.  Just like smoking, it will be a hard thing to quit, but you can do it!  And you will probably LOVE the results.

Make friends and talk to them.  Ask them to correct mistakes you make instead of just ignoring them out of politeness.  And be happy when they do.  Listen to the radio, to movies, to cartoons, children's programs, be with people as much as you can.  Also, read.  Read children's books to start with, but reading really helps you learn spoken English.  You see words in sentences and context and can look at them for awhile and see how they are used.  Go to the library and ask a librarian to suggest a simple, but intersting children's book with a few chapters that you could read.

Maybe you speak too fast. Try to be calm and speak a little slower.

Practice your speech in front of friends/family first.  They will give you good practice and help suggest things you might not have noticed like you're moving your hands around too much.\nPut the speech in perspective.  Talk as though your speech is the most important thing in the world and you need to get out there and let the world know what you have to say.\nYou are too focused on what people will think and truthfully no one will really remember.\nAlso practice daily visualization of your perfect speech.  Imagine over and over how well it will go.  Don't negativity into your mind.  And just do it!  Turn your fear into a nice rush.\nEverything will go okay.

There are many ways to develop communications skills. Its also good to know what communication skill you want to develop. Is it written communication? or is it oral? Anyway, I will provide simple answers to both.\n\n1) An important tool to develop both your communication skills is to expand your vocabulary. You can expand your vocabulary in various ways:\n   a) Dictionary- 3-5 words a day, use them in your sentences throughout the day.\n   b) Fiction Books- Literary books coupled with a dictionary can really boost your vocabulary because they contain rarely used words in your everyday life. Check out the bestsellers.\n   c) Newspaper- Reading the headlines at least 15 minutes a day would really help, it will also keep you updated!\n\n2) You can also develop your communication skill by joining a Toastmasters club near you! Most of the people there are really good speakers and communicators.\n\n3) When communicating, 90% of the message is expressed through body language, and only 10% for the verbal message. Read books such as "Body Language" and quickly boost your communication skills!\n\nWell that's about it... Hope I helped you!

Hi\n\nThe first thing I would recommend is you make an appointment with a qualified Speech Pathologist.   This is a person who specialises in how we make words, the specific muscles used as well as linquistic differences.\n\nThey will be able to assess your speech to determine if it is wholly connected with your movement to a new country or a loss of speaking ability.     \n\nIf it is connected to you hearing different accents causing muscle confusion then they will be able to provide techniques and advice on how to rectify and improve your speech.\n\nIf, on the other hand your ability to speak has decreased, then they possibly will be able to identify what, where, how much and possibly why.   They would then be able to advise you what you can do i.e. who else to see.\n\nPersonally, from what you have said, it sounds most likely you are suffering from confused accents syndrome.  I know when I travel I usually end up sounding more like a local and loose much of my 'own' accent.    Oh and I cannot emphasise a strong "r" in a word and pronounce some words in my own unique way and my main language is English.\n\nSo, see that speech pathologist and put your mind at rest.

Check out the web site for The Stuttering Foundation of America.  They have online videos and brochures for all ages.  Their books are also sent free to any public library.  Check your library and if they don't have them, tell them to contact the Foundation to get some.  Here are some tips from the foundation on using the telephone that can be adapted to speaking in public:\n\nPractice should help you to feel happier.\nTalk about what it is that you fear happening and what you can do about it. \nOpenly admit that you stutter. This may be very difficult if you have avoided talking about it all your life. Practice talking about your stuttering. Many people have said that talking about it has reduced their anxiety and fear. \nGive others the benefit of the doubt. If they know you stutter then they are prepared to expect some silences. \nFinally practice, practice, practice.

Speak it as much as possible (even to the mirror), listen to it (perhaps on the net) and write a lot. To improve your writing skills, use dictionaries or internet dictionary tools like Babelfish(http://www.babelfish.com/). If possible, find someone to speak it with. You'll be very good in no time.

Well as said previously, you can search google for a quick online test... Or you can take it one step further and get Mavis Beacon from Broderbund (trail version is available on their site). That not only tells you your words per minute, it also helps you work on improving it by means of more tests, lessons, and even games.
