huffo buddhu...lol dont take that offensively i call all of my friends that lol...btw im sukhi nice to meet ya dear...hmm now this one lets see i have the same problem lol i dont have the courage to speak in front of peers...now your accent and your speech efficiency problems....

take a deep breath and think of some good times, relax yourself...and if that doesnt help be calm and look at the back of the wall...you have an accent bummer they do tooo goodness your in uk kid..everyone has an accent there lol....your a different ethnicity but that doesnt make you any weaker than them....your an indian you should be proud no need to feel shame.... 😳 be calm, loud and straight forward, and if that doesnt work close your eyes before and think of the best memories 😳

This is one thing mst of the Indians/ or ppl frm other coutnried get worried about,

U have friends right...m sure they will help u.
Dnt worry...Be confident...
Thigs will go great,,,
ALL THE BEST

everybody has some accent in their voice when they speak english so don,t worry just relax n try ur best on it.

accent is a funny thing........
i ll share a related experience9and kind of ooposite) with u all.......till grade 5 i used to study in a school where british teachers used to teach us, so under their influence i had a complete british accent..........then i changed my school.........u see since i m in india, very few ppl got that accent and frankly in the new school amidst all indian accent i stood out, it ws horrifying for me as i always used to feel uncomfortable and hardly used to speak to any one in english, always feeling ppl are gossiping at my back or may be i m called a show off......and then i did the biggest blunder, i tried to change my accent and being the pighead i m, i completely ruined it and i ws so sorry abt the whole thing when it ws too late.
so moral of teh story: be brave and dont try to change anything becoz of others........dont be a coward like me and just be urself.....
if u really think that u need to improve ur accent or change it becoz u want to and not coz of wht others think, then u can give it a try by following BBC or other new channels..........u may talk to urself in english in ur free tme coz as long as u talk a lot, ur fluency will increase and tht will give u a grip on ur accent. u may ask ur family members to correct the pronunciations if there r any mistakes, coz once u get hand of the correct pronunciation the accent gets more correct.
the more u listen to a definite accent, the more u will be influenced. and never feel intimidated by others. if they laugh, let them........always have the faith in urself........there r ppl all around who wd prefer to laugh at others rather than helping..........dont mind those kinds.
just try and try and never give up........it is much easier said than done, i agree........but try to be brave, we all have problems but we can never bow b4 them, so instead of running lets face the fear and u ll see slowly u ll overcome the fear. so speak and patietly listen, coz when u listen u grasp a lot and when u speak u ll know where u r going wrong and u can correct the mistakes.

keep smiling😊
