Dear Friend,

I too had this problem when I was in my college days. I did the following things. I hope these would help you.

For nearly one year I stopped reading anything in my mother tongue. I kept on reading everything in English. Besides this I also had the opportunity of sharing everything that I had read with my friend.
Thinking in English has helped me immensely. Generally, as you know it well, we tend to think in our mother tongue and try to translate that in English. Stop doing that. Instead think in English.

It would be useful to have English/American/Canadian/Australian friends so you could communicate with them.
Take into account that there is a slight difference between their Englishes.

hey, im a canadian born chinese and i've learned cantonese and english at the same time at a very young age.  It takes patience and months and months of practice.  Try speaking in english regularly and stop speaking of thinking in your mother tongue.  Also, I strongly recommand you to watch english speaking movies and tv programs. 

 To be a fluent speaker, you must first have good english pronounciation, speak slowly, don't be shy and just speak.  Learn to correct yourself and try to talk like your english speaking friends.

Good Luck!

I have the same problem about it. And I think we should consider it as a permanent task.

Dear friend,

I had been the same problem to speak english for two to three years, the advice in regard of this problem that you should read english news papers as much as possible

dont be shy,and just speak and when u r reading news paper a small dictionary should

near u and after this you will feel that you have lot of vocabulary this exercise would be beneficial for u and the second one is try to speak english with others and join the company of people who speak english.
