you stay in Beijing, i think you have more opportunity to improve you oral english. in my eyes, the best way to practise your oral english is to reading more and you need to read loudly. another part is listen more, since you can understand your foreign friends, and pronounce exactly, most improtant is that you need to say it as much as possible, dom;t be afraid of making mistakes. here are some my tips, hope it can help you, may you succeed.

Hi Reeree, when I graduated from college I accepted that I am not proficient in English language. Even in job interviews,it is a big disappointment. I got a job not because the interviewer amazed by my answers but because of people whom I know that knows my capacity. For me, a successful person knows how to relate verbally and in written so I seek education thru the net and join short term courses just to develop. I can say that I am not best in that language but proud to say that I got better.You too can find ways like, search in youtube, yahoo and a lot more. Also looking for a speech buddy will help you to motivate yourself and learn more. Good luck
