What if I’m too self-conscious to practice speaking English?
First of all, if you feel self-conscious when you try to speak in English, I completely empathize! I feel self-conscious speaking in my native language, too, sometimes!
Start by reminding yourself that it’s human and normal to feel shy or self-conscious. Try to have some patience with yourself and understand why you might feel that way.
If your self-consciousness feels like it’s holding you back completely, start small. Start by learning a short poem or line from a t.v. show to memorize and say when you’re alone. Practice speaking by yourself for a few weeks.
Then try to record yourself speaking for at least a couple of minutes. You might not like it at first, but I promise that you will get used to hearing yourself speak eventually if you take it slow and don’t rush yourself.
Finally, working one-on-one with an experienced teacher will give you the safe environment you need to get out of your comfort zone, build your confidence, and overcome your hesitation and fear of speaking English.

Remember that it’s also okay to be a shy, reserved person. Not everyone can be the extroverted, talkative life of the party. Focus on practicing the English that you need to speak more when you’re working or traveling, but don’t push yourself to talk to strangers at a party if you don’t feel ready! 
Practice is important, but it also has to work for you. It’s okay if your way of practicing English doesn’t look the way it does for other learners.
