Question Learning to talk.

Yeah, I know that the title seems weird, and I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be within this section, or Personal Effectiviness, but let me explain.

It's just that I'm studying International Relations because I want to be a diplomat. There's a slight problem, though, I have issues with etiquette, oratory, but mostly having proper conversations.

I have the etiquette and oratory part "covered" (I've reading a book on the former, and making time to join a Toastmasters club in my area for the latter), however I don't know how to talk properly. What I mean is just that when I'm talking I often pause because I don't know how to express myself, and I'm often misunderstood because of that same reason. Not to mention that I need to get rid of all those slang words... plus body language... well, many things, but right now that's somehow of my priority.

Please, could anyone help me with this?
