Dear Ramesh,
Nothing is impossible. Everything is possible, keep this in mind. Don't think too much about your communication problem because this is a global issue. Here are a few tips to overcome it without wasting money:
- As everyone says, read English newspapers and keep a dictionary with you. So, if you don't understand any new English words, you can check and learn them.
- Try to communicate with others in English as much as you can. It will not only improve your communication but also your English.
- Avoid using regional languages as much as possible.
I am sure employers will see your efforts and experience rather than just judging you based on your communication skills. I wish you good luck for your future.

Hey Ramesh,
I think your problem is not so much about English. Rather, it's more about self-belief and self-confidence. I don't think one may get rejected in an interview just because of English. If so, everyone who can speak English would get selected, isn't it?
It's something to do with the way of talking rather than looking for an excuse for not getting selected. Do some homework before going for an interview. Read something. Familiarize yourself with the happenings of the world. Know yourself. Sharpen your axe.
Keep yourself updated with the world. Improve your knowledge. Impress the interviewer with your knowledge rather than impressing with English.

I am an MBA, but I am helping many people without taking any benefits and by investing my time. Therefore, I am similar to an MSW. So, my question is, is it right to do this? Please don't underestimate MSW.

7 Things to Improve Your English Communication
English is very easy to learn. All you need to do is train yourself to speak English as comfortably as you speak your mother tongue. You need certain practice in your daily life. Here are some tips to follow:
1. Make Friends
Find a friend who also wants to improve their English and have lunch or dinner with them. Make it a habit and utilize the whole time for communicating in English. Introduce penalties if this rule is broken. This will help you improve your listening and speaking skills. If you don't have enough time to go out and meet people, at least you can chat a little by telephone. Play games printed in English that require some knowledge of English such as Monopoly, Scrabble, Life, Dictionary, etc. Before starting, come up with a repertoire of basic commands for playing and encourage the other players to speak only English. If you do this, no doubt you can improve your English speaking skills. What you need to do is keep practicing.
2. Read English Books Like Comics, Magazines, Entertainment
Comics are always full of idiomatic language and are very easy to understand, but some are difficult to understand the jokes and dialogue. So try to choose comics carefully. Usually, serious or adventure comics are easier to understand than funny ones. Choose the ones you feel most comfortable with and read them. Magazines are also useful for improving language and gaining knowledge. If you can read two versions of the same magazine, for example, Newsweek in your language and in English, that will help you understand easily.
3. Read a Translation into English
Choose a book that was originally translated into English, preferably from your own language. Even if you haven't read the book in your own language, you will find the English is written in a slightly simplified way that is more similar to how your own language is written than a book originally written in English would be. This will be easy for you to understand and learn the language.
4. Watch Films in Your Language with English Subtitles
If you find English films with English subtitles too difficult, watch films in your language. This is the best option to learn English. Local films with English subtitles can also help you attain a good command of the English language.
5. Watch the Same Film or TV Episode Over and Over Again
You can learn the language without having to study it. Some comedies can also get funnier the more you watch them, especially if you watch them with no subtitles and understand a little more each time you watch.
6. Learn and Use the Phonemic Script
There are many sounds in English; if you learn phonetics, you can understand these words. By learning the phonemic script, you can improve your pronunciation and get an idea of how to pronounce words. It can also make things easier for you by stopping you from trying to pronounce different spellings of the same pronunciation differently.
7. Read a Book with Lots of Dialogue
Dialogue is easier to understand than descriptive parts of a book and is more like the language you will want to learn to speak English.

Dear Ramesh,
This problem is faced by people who belong to Mumbai as well, so don't think that Mumbai people do not face communication problems. So, don't be negative about that part. You can improve your English by starting to read English newspapers. Initially, you may not understand much, but gradually, you will learn the meanings of words, making it an interesting endeavor. Additionally, please buy Gala's English Dictionary (English to Hindi) and then start watching English news channels.

Hi everyone, I am Ramesh. I am searching for a job in finance. I am basically from a village, and my problems include communication issues and fear of job interviews. I seek suggestions from seniors. Here are my specific problems:
1. How can I overcome my communication problem as it leads to rejection in many interviews?
2. Even though I have an MBA, I assist others without seeking any benefits, making me feel like I am pursuing an MSW. Is this the right approach?
3. I tend to talk a lot without thinking. How can I overcome this?
4. How can I improve my English communication without spending money?
5. Coming from a village, I struggle to adapt to the environment. Please advise me on coping strategies.
Thank you!

Dear Ramesh,
The best way to improve your communication is reading English newspapers and novels. First, do this for a month. This will help you understand more about sentence formation, word usage, and grammar. After that, watch English news channels, English movies, and try to communicate in English. This practice will enhance your vocabulary. Another important aspect is to try thinking your thoughts in English, as it will aid you in better expression.
If you have a strong interest in learning, you can solve your problems soon. It all depends on your self-confidence and interest.
All the best!

Dear Ramesh,
The good thing is that you analyze yourself; the negative is that your perception to realize the analyzed outcomes as problems.
English communication is not a problem to overcome but rather a skill to practice. You don't have to worry that your English communication is not good, since English is not your mother tongue. Any skill could be achieved through constant practice. So, practice.
Rule No#: Right or Wrong Speak, When you are able to communicate through forums like citehr, sure you can practice and improve your English.
To stop talking without thinking is unacceptable. One cannot speak without thinking. You are thinking, but the problem is not concentrating or going in-depth on the subject, right? The solution is to do meditation. Search for a Pranic Healing Foundation nearby your area and practice "Twin Heart Meditation," which is very powerful to activate your heart and brain simultaneously. Therefore, you will become calm inside, which will give more clarity to your speech.
There is no need to waste money on learning English; there are millions of online sites where you can get basic English. Search for PDFs online, which will help you to a greater extent. If needed, post your email ID, and I will send some good basic materials to practice English.
Select a good group from your villagers and learn and practice English together.

Listening is the best way to improve your communication skills. Listen to English talk shows and surround yourself with all English materials like newspapers, magazines, and other printed materials. Watch English films with subtitles. Research has shown that subtitles help a lot in language learning.

Dear Ramesh,
Stop thinking and start doing. Half of the time, you are wasting on thinking. Mirror exercise is a must every day (very important). No need to read the whole newspaper; however, concentrate on hobbies, job, current economic situation, and markets. Start thinking in English. If you feel your grammar is weak, search for a local tutor, preferably a Catholic one, to build a solid base - nothing wrong in it.
Read subtitles on Star Movies. Watch news analysis and observe the expressions of the persons - how they emphasize words, pause, smile, and use hand movements. Watch interviews to learn how to answer spontaneously in tricky questions.
All the best.
