ARTICULATION AT IT'S BEST!

I believe you should start reading Novels that interest you or the best would be "THE HINDU" newspaper. Initially it will be difficult to grasp the vocabulary used but daily reading will improvise your English.

Make reading newspaper a habit or you can start this reading habit from literature stories of primary academic books. They are simpler and good ones to start with. read less

English Language / Business Communication Trainer (Corporate Trainer) - Body Language and Soft skills expert.

I personally think, speaking and listening help more than reading. If I had to recommend a book I would say, pick up any Chetan Bhagat book. His books are easy to understand and also interesting so you don't feel bored and want to give up reading. Good Luck! :)

If you are looking for something a bit more grown up, try Edgar Allan Poe and Shashi Tharoor. Hope this helps! read less

Which is right to say: "It is a coward who dare not recognize the Lord's name in front of others" or "He is a coward who dare not …"?
He is a coward... is the right one since you have used "who", the subject is supposed to be "he". Only if you have used "which" then the subject becomes "it"
