Ignore them. When I moved to the United States from Germany my English was perfect; but, I had a really bad Arnold Schwartzenegger accent which made me sound dumb. My teachers told the students that if I could speak English perfectly and spell correctly then so could they. Just think how stupid your classmates sound speaking English-they probably make just as many mistakes in English as you do in German... so smile at least you're trying.

Get a language course or book and study it. That way you can eliminate future mistakes. In the meantime, don't let a little laughter get you down. Laugh at your own mistakes, too.

pay attention when they laugh at you and make sure you dont make the same mistake twice. Pay attention to what you did wrong and learn the right way. This will eventually eliminate your mistakes. In the meantime, laugh with them when they start laughing at you.

Laugh with them, and keep talking and listening.
Or beat the crap out of them, then keep talking and listening.
