Yeah, best way to improve is just talk talk and talk. I came to London with a medium-high level of English skills, but more on the writing/reading side. Once you get here and live here you realize that the conversational English is very different to what you learnt from the books.
Try to read newspapers, watch movies and tv programmes (one good trick is to use the subtitles for the hearing impaired in the teletex 888) and try to take any chance to practice (in shops, with friends).
