The reason your spoken English doesn’t sound the way you want it
to is because you are applying the habitual sounds and rhythms of
your native language to English. This totally makes sense,
especially if you learned English primarily through books and
through other non-native speakers.
So, in order to change the way you sound when you speak English,
you have to change your habits.- habits that you’ve had since you
spoke your first words!
If you’ve ever tried to break a habit, you know what a challenge this
can be. You have to be very deliberate. You have to focus. You have
to act purposefully, over and over, before new habits replace the
old. It’s not easy! Beware of anyone who promises you a “quick fix.”
Changing your speaking habits is a process, a journey, where you
will progress through different steps and stages. Embrace it!

FOCUSED: You can learn all about different sounds and rhythms,
but until you actually apply this knowledge in deliberate, focused
practice you won’t make progress. It’s like bodybuilding. You can
learn the best exercises to get that A+ oh la la physique, but until
you start doing these exercises, over and over in a routine and
deliberate way, you won’t get biceps like bricks, abs like iron, or
buns of steel!

As you now know, if you want to change the way you speak you
have to change habits that you’ve had forever. There’s no way that
it won’t feel weird, unnatural, funny, odd and silly. It’s not the way
your used to speaking!
