Hi! I am from Sri Lanka.
I love to speak like a New Zealander. I used to imitate like a native English speaker every day. But it's a little bit hard to speak "naturally" like a native speaker. I know some differences between American, British, Australian, and New Zealand accents. I want learn the New Zealand accent and speak every single word like a New Zealander. I also want to improve my English fluency, grammar and vocabulary as well. Otherwise, I will not be able to speak to a native speaker confidently. Please help me. Thank you.
