Dear John,
In addition to what others have suggested, try these as well:
1. Whenever you try to speak in English, don't think in your vernacular and try to translate into English; instead, think in English and speak out. Initially, you may make mistakes, but gradually, you will improve.
2. Make sure that whenever you are with your friends and family, you speak or converse only in English. Share with them the mistakes you are making and correct them.
3. For a simple conversation, you don't need an in-depth vocabulary; commonly known English words are sufficient. Also, correct your grammatical errors by discussing them with your close friends.
4. Practice discussing your subject for a group discussion in front of a mirror at home. If you practice with a close friend who is proficient in English, they can help you improve your speaking flow and body language.
5. Read printed materials on the topic of group discussions frequently. Memorize important sections and recall them during discussions.
6. Approach the group discussion without an inferiority complex. Think that others are also like you, and you are well-prepared. Have a mindset full of confidence.
7. Listen, read, watch, recall, and present. Keep your eyes and ears open at all times.
I hope these tips help you improve your English speaking skills.

First of all, please present your problem in an understandable manner. That will help others to give you suitable advice.
General knowledge can be acquired by improving your reading habit and using the internet. Once knowledge improves, you will automatically feel more confident.
Secondly, if your knowledge of English is poor, make full attempts to speak and read more articles and interact with friends, office superiors, etc. Interaction will help improve conversational English. Never lose confidence in yourself.
A few attempts will give you exposure and the ability to sail through. Best of luck.

You will be given preparation time, so make good use of it. Note down what you know about the topic and express your views from your perspective. Have faith in yourself and maintain a positive attitude. All the best.
