Speech disorders and diction defects are found in the vast majority of children. Corrected bite in time, and sometimes cutting the bridle, classes with a speech therapist work wonders. However, not everyone succeeds in getting rid of speech problems at a young age. It is not surprising that many adults who are unhappy with their reprimands turn to the services of specialists. A professional will immediately say how soon a person can hope to improve the development of speech, since some shortcomings are more difficult to eliminate. Nevertheless, you can develop speech at any age if you have patience and perseverance.

Step 1
If you work with a speech therapist, he will most likely determine the optimal ways of developing your speech for you. However, there are also several universal options that are suitable for anyone looking to improve their pronunciation. For example, correct speech breathing. To develop it, you need to do a few simple exercises daily. As you exhale, chant the sounds a, o, y, and, s, try their various combinations, for example, ay, oi, and so on. Alternate pronunciation of sounds with short breaths. Also, as you exhale, count out loud to ten, trying not to interrupt the sounds.
Step 2
Learn tongue twisters. Recite them every day in front of the mirror, making sure your articulation is clear. Start slowly, in a whisper, accentuating each growling, hissing sound. Each time read tongue twisters faster and louder, but do it without “chewing” or “swallowing” sounds. Tongue twisters can be any, including those that are familiar to you from childhood: "Sasha walked along the highway", "Three ships maneuvered, maneuvered." But still, picking them up, try to pronounce more often those in which there are sounds that are problematic for you.
Step 3
One of the signs of developed speech is correct intonation. That is, the placement of stress in words, pauses, changing the volume of the voice during the story. An adult can learn the intonational expressiveness of speech on his own. To do this, write simple sentences or children's poems on a piece of paper, for example: "A bull is walking, swinging, sighing on the go …". Read them aloud, with different intonations, each time changing the stress in the sentence so that the meaning also changes. Take logical breaks. Train yourself not to blurt out the entire text in one fell swoop.
