Tony, I'm facing the same problem as well. I'm actually way better at written English. I'm not sure, I just find it difficult to speak in English more fruently. My mother tongue is not english. It bugs the hell out of me to have to keep pausing when speaking in English
as a non-english speaker i often find difficult to speak fluently, even though my american friends say that mine english is really ok, i'm not quite confident about it, still have problems with the words, i often forget the more complex ones and while speaking i have to use the simple ones to describe what i want to say (what costs me much more effort:)
how to learn words?
how to get accent?
