My general question is how can I get a perfect and accurate accent? Unfortunately my native language is Spanish. I don't want to speak spanish anymore, and I'd love to get a perfect english accent. I'm trying speaking in english as much as possible, watching movies in english and listening tons of audio books. But I think, it's not enough, people even can't understand me, I don't know what's wrong me?
My another question is about the use of the preposition "into" "onto", honestly I've had a lot of headache trying to figure out the correct use of those words.
I'd thank whatever answer or suggestion.

The accents and intonations of some languages are more difficult to overcome than others - I find that French and Spanish native speakers are often difficult to understand. However, this may also be because these countries traditionally practise listening and reading above speech and conversation. If listening to films and audio books hasn't helped you, the next step should be to find native English speakers who are not just willing to talk to you, but also to correct your pronounciation - a need and a wish you will have to be very explicit about.
