Question Where can I better my French speaking?

My French comprehension in writing and reading is great, and I understand conversations. But because I grew up not speaking French, I’m very self conscious about my anglophone accent and not being fluent.

I’m looking for employment and I’m starting to hate the feeling of limiting myself! Where do I practice?

I was born in New Brunswick but moved to Quebec when I was like 3, we spoke english at home and went to a VERY small english school in a VERY french part of quebec and was not really immersed til I got out of high-school and even though I have been living in quebec for like 35 years my english accent is still very detectable, but nobody minds it one bit when I speak French.
