一个人少儿时期形成的英语学习方法对他后续的英语学习有重大的影响，方法对了，就有机会说出一口流利地道的英语；反之方法错了，那就很可能成为哑巴英语。因此，在小孩子摸索外语学习的过程中，家长应该适时引导，让自己的小孩子掌握正确的英语学习方法，日后真正的能用英语交流。以下这6个学习方法是小孩子培养英语口语表达能力的关键步骤。
1.让小孩子把自己说的英语录下来，不断模仿重复
起初，听到自己录音中的声音会感到有些奇怪，但这的确是一种提高的好方法。你可以找一些标准的英语教学内容，重复他们说的内容。录下来，找到与之不同的地方，接着再来一次。慢慢地，直到你感觉到和原版发音越来越接近。
2.学会几首英文歌
经典的英文歌曲不仅可以陶冶小孩子情操，而且也能加深小孩子对英语的学习兴趣。我们很多时候可能因为一首歌曲而喜欢上某个明星，小孩子也一样，他可能因为几首英文歌曲喜欢上英语。
3.重视英语中的元音和辅音
不要小瞧Phonemic chart（音素表），它是一个帮你学习元音和辅音的好工具。如果你还没有看过，可以仔细研究一番，对于惯用的单词，你的发音会更加清晰准确。
4.重视词汇的强读和弱读
英语是一种stress-timed（重音节拍）语言，意思是说在读一些词的时候会有强读部分和弱读部分。例如下面这个句子：
I want to go for a drink tonight.
在读到此句时，你是怎样读”for a”两个词的？通常以英语为母语的人是这样读的：
I wanna go ferra drink tenigh.
运用好强读和弱读，对于你的英语提高会非常有帮助，在听到一段对话的时候，可以着重拿着文字稿进行分析，你会找到很多类似的规律，这对于理解对话的含义也是非常有帮助的。
5.练习英语绕口令
绕口令是练习发音的一个好方法。以下是几个比较经典的绕口令，试着快速说出来：
1）.How many cookies could a good cook cook If a good cook could cook cookies? A good cook could cook as much cookies as a good cook who could cook cookies.
2）.I wish I were what I was when I wished I were what I am.
3）.Never trouble about trouble until trouble troubles you!
6.跟孩子一起学习一些简短的固定亲子表达
家长如果会英语可以适时使用一些亲子表达和孩子互动，让孩子可以学以致用，获得互动交流的乐趣。
家长如果不会英语或者担心自己发音不够准确也可以利用一些比如口语侠、italkiee等手机外教平台找专业外教跟自己的小孩子互动，如今的网络非常发达，使用手机或者平板电脑高清的实时互动交流效果也非常好。以下附上我们总结的最常用的150句亲子交流表达，非常有价值噢。
