how can i improve my english communication skills?




I would like to improve my english communication skills. English is not my first language. It seems like I know the language very well but when i’m talking to people it really gets hard for me. I feel like I really dont know many words to express myself. Like if I want to say something but just can’t. Is this normal? what should i do to become a better English speaker?
i do go to school…university level i’m getting my BS in Finance next yr. im 21
