Several methods to improve students' oral English expression ability
The specific arrangements can be as follows: each student is required to prepare an English speech before class, with free content and form and unlimited genre. Teachers can ask students to give a "pre-class English speech" in the order of students' student numbers within five minutes before each English class. They can take various forms, or read English essays, or introduce themselves, or recite English chapters, or several students can cooperate in English dialogue or perform sketches. In short, the forms are diverse and rich. Based on the principle of everyone's participation, the teacher can make an appropriate summary. In this relaxed and pleasant learning atmosphere, students will gradually become interested in speaking English. As long as they persevere, their oral English expression ability will be gradually enhanced.

Second, make full use of existing English textbooks, design reasonable teaching procedures, create effective teaching methods, and cultivate and improve students' oral English expression ability in many ways. Although there are various versions of English textbooks, the basic contents and forms are basically the same, including English dialogue teaching, English reading text teaching, English grammar teaching and English writing training. Therefore, as long as we make full use of English textbooks, carefully prepare lessons and carefully design reasonable teaching procedures, we can well cultivate and improve students' oral English expression ability. For example, in the process of English dialogue teaching, teachers can ask students to imitate English dialogue with the sentence patterns they have learned and make up their own dialogues. Work in groups of several people, assign roles to each other, perform English dialogues and actively exercise their oral English communication skills. When teaching English reading texts, students' oral English can also be improved appropriately. As we all know, English reading text teaching is an important part of English teaching in middle schools. However, some teachers only pay attention to explaining vocabulary and grammatical analysis in the teaching of English reading texts, while ignoring the training to improve students' oral English and cultivate their oral expression ability. The author thinks that this teaching method of English reading text deviates from the teaching goal of middle school English, which is not worth the candle. On the contrary, various effective training methods should be adopted in English reading text teaching to improve students' oral English expression ability. "Text introduction" is a good way to train students' oral English expression ability: when reading the text formally, teachers can introduce the background knowledge of the text by asking questions, which not only enhances students' interest and understanding of English texts, but also creates opportunities to train students' oral English expression ability. Take the music in the third module of FLTRP's senior one textbook as an example. Teachers can introduce English reading texts in the form of questions. The specific question can be designed as: 1. Do you like this music? 2. Can you play musical instruments? Can you name some famous musicians in the world? Who are they? 4. Can you talk about famous composers? Organizing students to discuss and answer these questions in class not only exercises students' oral English expression ability, but also deepens students' understanding of the theme of reading the text. In addition, in English reading extensive reading training, students can also be trained to improve their oral English expression ability by asking questions, retelling the text and summarizing the main idea of the text.

Thirdly, oral training can also be integrated into English writing training. Seeing this, some readers may disagree and think that writing training and oral training are not related. How are they connected? In fact, both oral English training and English writing training are inseparable from the expression of the most basic English language sentence patterns, only one is reflected in written expression and the other is reflected in oral expression. The author believes that the two can be completely integrated and play a positive role in promoting each other. For example, in class, I gave students a composition training question: Please describe all the information given in five standard English sentences according to the following situations: the first time I saw a movie:1) when I was 5 years old; 2) After dinner; My sister took me there. 3) On the playground of our village school; 4) screening Private Zhang Ga; 5) It's wonderful and unforgettable. I organize students to discuss freely the vocabulary and sentence patterns involved in writing this composition, and finally write the results of the discussion on the blackboard: the first time I watched a movie (the first time when I ...; On the playground of our village school ...; It's so good that I forgot ...) I encourage students to make oral compositions with summarized vocabulary and sentence patterns. Students are in high spirits and actively raise their hands to speak. Finally, basically every student can make an oral composition: I saw this movie for the first time when I was five years old. Later, my sister took me to the movies. The film was released. The playground of our village school. The name of this film is Private Zhang Ga, which tells the story of a private soldier. This film is so wonderful that I can't forget it. The following English writing problems have been solved, which not only exercises the students' oral English expression ability, but also completes the English writing task well. Why not?

Fourth, develop colorful extracurricular interest activities, actively create an environment for oral English communication, and improve students' oral English expression ability. Language is a living thing, and the opportunity to improve students' oral English expression ability should not be limited to English classes. Persisting in carrying out colorful extracurricular interest activities regularly often plays a subtle role in improving students' oral English expression ability. For example, organize extracurricular English lectures, English song competitions, English story meetings, English corners, English poetry readings and other activities. These activities can greatly stimulate students' thirst for knowledge, improve their interest in learning English and broaden their horizons. If conditions permit, you can also hire foreign teachers to come to the school to have face-to-face oral English communication with students, which is a good opportunity to improve students' oral English ability. After all, foreigners speak English with authentic pronunciation and intonation, and the conversation is relaxed and natural. Students can often chat with foreigners, and their spoken English will be greatly improved.

A drop of water wears away the stone, not in a day; Rome was not built in a day. As long as the teaching method is proper and gradual, the most important thing is perseverance. It is not difficult to improve students' oral English expression ability.
