Hello Gihan :hi:
Welcome to the forum, I'm sure here you can find the best tips to learn English. As dear moderators will definitely mention, the first step to improve your writing can be the correct spelling along with correct punctuation. Don't forget "I" not"i". make sure you have started the new sentence in capital letter.
Regarding speaking, watching film or series, talking to native speakers and also reading comprehension books can help you. Reading books can help your speaking as well as your writing.
Wish you luck.

Try to practice more with writing and for speaking try to speak in english in your daily life as much as you can and don't worry about the correctness at early stage, try to build your confidence. Wherever you find problem, you can share that with forum members and you will get best explanation from them. I hope practicing in this manner would help you.

As they said, watching movies and series is a good start for improving your speaking skills. You can also try doing a language exchange, there're many students looking for language tandems.
