- How To Speak CLEARLY And Confidently 3 Tricks, How To Speak clearly? This video is here to assist you in being able to finally being able to speak clearer, without speaking like a robot. Proper speech for clarity, is very important, whether that be on stage, on screen, or in your everyday life interactions. Our speaking skills is sometimes something we need to develop if clarity of the information we present is not clear. Many times, its just a simple adjustment or dedicated practice that you need in order to clear this up. If mumbling is an issue for you, than say good bye to the mumbling and put in the time so you can be mumble free.
Many people have asked me "How can i speak clearly?" or "How to have clean speech?"
My answer is to find a source that you find helpful and then practice it daily and find what the results have given you. Like everything, it takes time and practice to get better at something, and with your speech, you have to be clear on what it is you are working on and decide how you can get better at it.
Keep at it and don't give up. Remember, speech is one of your most important tools that you have and if you can't be understood by the audience or the camera, it will be something you have to spend time on developing.
Ever wonder what it takes to be an actor or what you can do to progress forward in this field? I did, so I figured out how to do it. Like you and many other actors, I found it struggling in the beginning, but after obtaining an immense amount of training and becoming a better actor I found some of the secrets that nobody tells you. Acting doesn’t have to be this overly complex thing, though it’s made out to be and though the learning curve can be hard, I’ve been able to help others by quickly and easily cutting that learning curve by literally making everything we do simple, logical, and to the point. There is not one complete and only avenue to becoming an actor, there are many paths you can take. You can take the curvy path, the rough and bumpy path, or easy/simple straight path (which I tend to prefer). Let’s make acting easy, simple, and fun again.

I just sound stupid when I talk
Hey man, first step is to change your outlook on yourself. It may seem cliche, but your voice is your voice, don’t hate yourself for what you have no control over. Your voice/personality/outlook are factors to your uniqueness. Some of the most famous people are famous because of the uniqueness that they bring and the recognizable voices that they have. For example Christopher Walken, Jack Nicholson, or Anthony Hopkins. If people like Adam Sandler, Kevin James, or Chris Rock decided to judge themselves on particular aspects of their self (whether it be vocally or not) they wouldn’t have the success they’ve gained today.
This applies to individuals in any field in any aspect of life. Albert Einstein, Abraham Lincoln, or even Elon Musk. If they didn’t believe in themselves enough, they wouldn’t be where they are today. You must believe that your worth is important and that you have it. Accept your voice, because it’s yours. I’ll tell you this man, everyone I work with always thinks the grass is greener on the other side. People with high voices want low voice and people with low voices want high voices. Don’t try to change what you don’t have control over, focus on what you can control. Your health, social circle, wealth, and Knowledge. You’ll do yourself a favor for the long run 👍🏼

first step man.
I tend to speak really fast and sometimes faster that I think creating long pauses or “Ums” instead of it being fluid and concise which is frustrating when I’m used to it and can’t seem to slow down
It’s not you,man. It’s CARNAGE!
Lul but no one sounds stupid when they talk. Your probrably the only one that thinks that
“How’s life going” uhm I’m 21 and trying to figure out how to talk right
Who cares as long you’re in the right path to perfect your craft

@@alexwe2266 damn bro this hella inspirational
I hate that moment when you’re the quiet person in the class and your teacher is like (for example “please read page 57”) then when I do it I feel like my voice is so stupid and my voice is so shaky (anyone have the same problem?) 😂😩
I know how that feels😥
Bruhhhh ditto
Same problem😭😂
Same so jarring innit?
Ohh yay you are just like me I’m done with that shaky voice 😭😭😭😭😭
Hearing my own voice is sounding weird.
We all tend to think that about ourselves. Anytime we record a new message on our answering machines we think “oh that’s what I sound like?” Many actors have actually used this as an example. Benedict Cumberbatch has said it about himself. Though it may be off for him to hear, we the people don’t necessarily think anything of it.
In short what I’m saying is, you’re probably being to hard on yourself about your voice. We can tend to be our worst critics sometimes. Focus more on being understood, rather than the pitch your voice is giving off. We all have a vocal range that we naturally sit in, and most likely your range is fine. Spend more of your time being understood rather than thinking about pitch

@@TheActorsAcademy thank you
@@TheActorsAcademy correct
nitin ks yeah I hear my voice in a video and it’s bad but without it i hear my voice and it sound great but not in videos
oof I'm late to the conversation, I've learned about how we also hear ourselves through our own skulls making our voices sound deeper than it is
so when hearing your voice through a recording, it really does sound different
IDK it's just something I wanted to share :3
3 more tips:
1. Think before you speak: we often give more time for other people to say something than we do ourselves. Don't rush and think about what you say before speaking. This will not only give you time to organize your thoughts but others will also appreciate it.
2. Talk more: If you have a hard time talking, it's likely because you aren't used to it. Practice talking more. It can not only help you fix your speech but also make it easier for you to speak in general.
3. Stop adding unnecessary words/phases to your conversations: many people have the habit of adding "umm" "uhh" "basically" "and then" etc words and phases to their everyday conversations which is unnecessary and can also be distracting or annoying to some people. Be aware of what you are saying and practice cutting these types of audio out of your vocabulary unless needed.
I hope these can help some of you 😊❤
step 3 got Gen Z shaking in their boots.
"you know i mean like basically that shit went like umm like that and shit" me speaking
Great tips!
Can't agree more on the 2nd point. We don't have enough face to face conversations in this day and age resulting in us not speaking enough and the truth is it's like any other muscle: the more of it you use, the more of it you HAVE. The more you speak, the more you CAN speak.
@@thelegendarysupersaiyanbro6535 Thank you, your comment just made me feel better and made me giggle. Not laughing at you though. I do the same and it can be very frustrating and make you feel worthless and give you a lack of confidence when speaking to others. I struggle to form sentences and communicate them as well. I cannot seem to speak fluently. English is my native language as well and I don't speak any other languages so it's not that it's affected. I think my problem with being able to form a sentence when speaking is because I overthink at the same time how people are going to see me if I cannot communicate properly which gives me social anxiety and also a worry I carried on from my teens was if I don't speak quick enough people will just lose interest in the conversation or someone will but in. Also, I feel like people look at me oddly when I can't speak very well and I get paranoid that people think I'm unintelligent because I sound it when I speak. I always wish I had the gift to be able to speak so fluently like others with a flow and not overthinking. When I was a kid before I hit my teens I was able to speak fluently with ease and life was so easy because of it. Ever since my teens, it got worse. I'm now 26 and still not improved. My family and friends tell me I sound fine but I know I cannot talk properly and made many mistakes not being able to form a sentence and it is worse at work, especially in my job field it doesn't help. I think I'm going to go doctor to find out what it is and how to get help and go from there as I have left it for too long.

From personal experience: the guys who speak slowly with 1-2 second pause are the ones with a deep voice and are confident. Add some pause before opening your mouth and relax
Per word?
My mam is Irish and my dad is Scottish. I was born in Scotland, moved to Ireland when I was 5 and moved to Australia when I was 13, I’m 15 now and my accent is absolutely horrendous no one can understand me
Bless you. Don't worry. Slow down and relax.
When I moved to Ireland I couldn't understand the accent😂
Haha, that made me smile, I wish I could hear what you sound like. What’s really sad is when you can’t understand people in your own country lol
my mam is my mom
Wow that's cool mix
I'm very good at presenting good arguments, but I am not good at forming sentences fast enough to get my point across. I will sometimes get super nervous at how slow I am going and then use a random word as a substitute for a word in a sentence I didn't know how to say clearly for that brief period.
Upen Graden THIS IS SO MEEE
I'm sure that a natural problem, maybe our brains are too fast
OMG Same here!
Because you are placing too much emphasis on speed, rather than the impact and value of each point. If you sound confident, provide validations of your points, and maintain an even temperament, you don't need to speak fast to get a powerful point across. People who speak fast in arguments tend to come across more as bullies than knowledgeable or convincing. If you speak slowly and don't get flustered, it exudes confidence and authority.
@@bwzffgh7 That's the problem if I doesn't say it faster than my enemy will say something and than thinks that debate is over so he think he won, but I am that type of a guy who always wants to have last and effective sentence that will emotionaly destroy my enemies.
I just needs to be faster
I can’t explain how much this helped. I use to stutter at least three times PER sentence. When I’m talking after following these tips, I don’t stutter anymore! I’ve seen so much improvement. Thank you!
Whenever i talk, I kinda stutter and forget what i am going to say...
Cuz you need to relax more, clear your thoughts from the negative stuff and just focus on what you're trying to say and let it flow naturally.

Omg same.
practice makes difference.
Sometimes I forget the word I'm looking for and I pause awkwardly
@@jay5ivez owh that's pretty natural...it was because that wasn't your mother tongue so you tend to forget the word...
I'm in this weird limbo where I speak confidently but am finding it harder to find my words. In the past couple of years I've noticed this and I used to NEVER think about it! Now when I make my vlogs, I really do have to go through my material beforehand or else i'll forget names and places and even part of my story.... :(
Me too I think something is wrong with me
It’s “talking anxiety”. Like learning pain. Your brain is paying attention and slowing you down because you already recorded there to pay attention how you talk and can’t drop it. I have the same issue. If I talk with someone in relaxed circumstances it’s fine and flawless. If I record my voice leaving message - I’m grasping for words, slurring. Because I’m paying attention on how I talk rather than just letting it go. So far I didn’t find cure for that other than practice practice and try to shut off your brain at that time like you don’t think how you talk when you talk to friend.
You smoke weed by anychance cuz I hav4 the same issue and I feel like it's that
I really thought I was the only one , kind of feel better lol
I'm monotone and I'm tired of sounding like a robot, talk to slow or mumbling. I'll try these tips.
This is really helpful thanks!
I'm aware of a lot of these tricks from chorus and band classes, but tend to forget them.
Next time I do a presentation I think I'll write these tips on my notes or hand.
I studder and tend to slur my words often along with naturally speaking fast. I went to speech class for multiple years for how fast I spoke--
Anywho, before I end up making this a really long comment, thank you for these tips! Il. Definitely share with my friends who have similar problems with confidently speaking.
Hey man, just wanna say thanks again for the tips the other day. I interpreted them in my next few videos that I recently uploaded and must say that I actually felt like I saw an improvement. Funny how just tiny little things can throw off your acting. Thanks for throwing me back on track!
I’m very glad to hear that! I try to preach it in my videos that acting isn’t something that has to be made complicated. Anyone who instructs you and only confuses you more isn’t someone you want working with you. Only if everyone saw acting as being a logical process with simple steps & approaches. I’ve worked with truly phenomenal actors with backgrounds from TV, to film, and stage and can tell you that they don’t use half the things you hear people spouting. Anyways, I digress haha. Very glad it helped you out! Stick with it bro.
I stutter ALOT
me too 😶
You should talk more slower and relax
CosmicThomas me me me t t t too
Me too
same, i feel you bro
One thing he didnt mention is that you dont have to fill the gaps between your words with umms and uhhs learn to be comfortable with silence
Edit: for speaking to groups follow the three second rule where you maintain eye contact with each individual person for give or take 3 seconds as an introvert learning strong but not creepy eye contact has helped me tons in social situations
I'm a medical student and during my presentations my lectures always told me I speak very fast, and that's worse cause I think I speak just normal. Thanks for the tips, I'm gonna try them out.
Same mate!😫😫
LOL I THINK THE BEST TIP, IS TO SPEAK SLOWLY N RELAX
Yeah. . Not speak fast word people can't understand to you
Speek to slow and you will be Forest Gump.
I think people just get irritated and yawn when you talk to slow.
So true
Easy said than done
Why am I watching this video?
0:01 = How I think I sound.
0:48 = How everyone tells me I sound.
😒
this is too relatable to be real
Girl. Tell me about it!
Great video! I agree with the video that slowing down speech could help outgrow stuttering. The positive effect is that speaking slower makes you feel more comfortable, whereas other people who speak slower have more time to double down on doubt to say a feared letter which means that 'confidence that you can move articulators during a speech block' helps in outgrowing stuttering
I got what I wanted!
Super excited after watching this video.
I work in a hotel as a receptionist, and we had a trainer yesterday teaching us on telephone etiquette, and when it was my turn to speak, she was like NO NO NO this is not good, no one would understand you you have got to take it slow, believe me after about 5 minutes I got it right but when the class was almost done.. I became the same me.. Quite horrible I must confess.. Now I'm gonna learn by your example AND(D) the last letter has to be sounded, I'm gonna do more training on that, and try to reduce my speed while talking. Thank you so much man 🙌🙌🙌
You have to practice speaking the words of a song you know by heart. Work with that pace and youll be great before you even realise.
great advice! thanks
Well done, when I clicked on your video I honestly did not expect much but you brought up some really good points and tips, that you managed to project in proper time meaning you did not waste time or sidetrack. So well done mate :)

Things always seem to sound worse to our own ear, but it’s truly probably not as big of a deal as you might think. Trust me. Keep positive and accept it. Most people actually like unique accents, so it’s a true benefit in your hands :)

This is great, exactly what I was looking for.
I work in a daytime support center over the phone all days, I don't stutter and people understand me fine. But when I listen to my own voice it always sounds like im mumbling and like my voice is monotonic.
Are voice naturally has fluctuations, whether they be big or small. Now it is possible that your voice may be semi monotonic, but my question to you is how excited or happy are you when talking with customers. If you’re loving every minute of your job people will be able to hear it (again the inflection can be big or small, just depends on the person), so just because you sound monotonic in that situation doesn’t mean that’s how your voice is always like. Next time, trying imaging as if you are talking with your best friend and that will help, as well as making the customers feels more engaged with you.
As the mumbling goes, it could be how your voice naturally is, but if your understandable that’s a good thing. There are celebrity actors that don’t talk very clearly all the time, but they’re understandable and that’s what’s important. But if you really want to get rid of it, try talking a bit slower. Sometimes walking around the house over enunciating everything when you’re by yourself may help when in actual conversations with others. Try it out for a month or 2 and see what you think. If it’s not working, than stop practicing it, but if it is, than keep using it.
Hope this helps 👍🏼

This is really helpful. I watch this video preparing for my interview. English is not my first language but this video make me improve. 👍
Todos somos extraños. Todos estamos luchando por aprender unos de otros. Si conoces a tantas personas a las que les resulta extraño tu acento, debes demostrarles cuánto te esfuerzas e intentas aprender a comunicarte con ellos.
Entonces, no eres tú quien es extraño. Pero su actitud muestra una falta de aprecio y comprensión. Usted no es el que necesita cambiar, está trabajando duro y merece muchos elogios. Yo mismo estudio "Español" e "Inglés", y sé muy poco todavía, pero no me importan ni me preocupan comentarios como ese.
Mi idioma es portugués-brasileño y sigo estudiando portugués, porque nadie lo sabe todo. Estudio cuatro idiomas. Y si un dia
alguien viene a burlarse de mí, no hablo su idioma correctamente, le preguntaré si sabe todo tu idioma, cuántos idiomas hablas y si sabes algo del mío. Vaya, estoy luchando por aprender su idioma.
Felicitaciones a ti por intentarlo.
Soy Dorgival Dantas Brito, 49 años, Músico, Cantante y Compositor, Brasileño. Vivo en São Paulo.
==========================
We are all strangers. We are all struggling to learn from each other. If you know so many people who find your accent strange, you need to show them how hard you are trying and trying to learn to communicate with them.
So, it is not you who is strange. But their attitude shows a lack of appreciation and understanding. You are not the one who needs to change - you are working hard and deserve much praise. I study "Español" and "Inglés" myself, and I know very little yet, but I don't care or worry about comments like that.
My Languages is Portuguese-Brazil, and I continue to study Portuguese, because, nobody knows everything. I study four languages. And if, one day,
someone comes to make fun of me, I don't speak their language correctly, I will ask if he or she knows all of your language, how many languages do you speak and if you know anything about mine? Why, I'm struggling to learn her language.
Congratulations to you that you are trying.
I am Dorgival Dantas Brito, 49 years old, Musician, Singer and Composer, Brazilian. I live in Sao Paulo.
My brain on regular days: 💡
My brain during a conversation and interview: 💀
Thank you! You are so helpful. I love your way of explaining how speech works more successful. Again, thank you!
I always get tongue tied when I speak and end up stuttering. I don’t know why I stutter and never used to do that. I’m also 15. And I can be understood, it’s just annoying for me myself, because I feel caught. I also do tend to talk fast and used to speak so loud. Now when I started speaking quite and everyone now tells me to speak up. And I think more than I speak. On my mind I’m a freaking genius. In reality, well, let’s just say is something else
Just failed my uni interview due to anxiety and me not being able to speak clearly I hate my self so much for struggling with speech
Being from South Africa but living here in the US for 20 years, my accent has become a bit muddled so I often catch myself not pronouncing words clearly. Good info!
This is something I struggle very much with, I really appreciate this video!
When I speak something then my mind gets completely blanked and i don't know what to speak next that's why i stop speaking in the middle and everyday i start to speak with a new voice and at the end of the day the same thing repeats .can you please help me me by giving me some tips that how can i find my real voice i will be very thankful to you.
Lol sometimes when I talk for a while without stopping my accent just goes from flat to extremely southern 😅
Even Google doesn't understand my words whenever I search something with my voice 🤣
Thank you for this helpful demonstration. I, like many people, get a certain feeling when listening to my own voice. And it really does help!
This was so helpful. I am studying and soon I am going to be a teacher and I fear that my students won't understand me because I usually do both talking fast and stutter a lot and that would be just awful to have a teacher like that so yeah. I will try to improve on that.
That was a lot of help. Thank you so much. I will practice and let you know.
Glad I could assist

What a great video and nice guy with the intro saying being understood or not. Excellent guy and work
I feel like my mind thinks sentences faster than I can speak.
My problem is that i sound so un-clear and i sound like im mixing words maybe cuz i think faster than i speak. So on chat and messages i tend to have great humor but in person i just cannot copy my online chatting humor to in person talking because im uncomfortable to talk not because im not confident im just uncomfortable, its really affecting me and my personality
This was so helpful, I'm going to start recording once per day to work on my speech. Thanks for the tips!

Thank you so much ♡!
You’re welcome!!
I think it has to do with my massive social anxiety. Whenever I try to say something when I'm around people, my mouth only says like a 3rd of the word in a very weird way. It's super annoying.
Great simple advice. Thank you!
Thanks mahn, gives a good confidence..! 👍
Thank you so much!

I’m in a foreign country right now (uk to us) and I feel so shy to speak up because they don’t understand my accent and everyone I speak to says “huhh”? And I hate it someone help me please and I just hate that I used to be really extroverted and now I’m an introvert because I feel like no one understands me.
Going from extroverted to introverted (shy) won't help you. More than likely its just the accent they're not used to. stay confident and speak a little slower. The reason people could understand you more back home is because they'd gotten used to the sounds of words that blended together. So now just try to enunciate each word. They'll get it
Seldomsleeper thank you so much, this means a lot
Micah it's ok just practice more with a friend on the phone regularly and it will improve
A lot of Americans like a British accent. Maybe they don't understand you but I don't think they are in any way looking down on you or trying to make you feel bad. I do understand that it's frustrating but please don't let it get you down. I'm sure you're accent is well liked.
Thank you I’m doing a play and I speak too fast when I’m saying my dialogues so this is a life saver! Thank you!

thank you for helping me you saved my live,cus i used to talk fast and people didn’t understand me now people understand me clearly thank you.
I'll come back and see if I did or didn't get better, so see y'all soon
I can talk fine and be understood but I don't want to sound "common" but I don't want to sound posh either. Because I'm aware of this I think I don't sound right. I've recored myself a few times and all I do is pick at my accent 😭😭
I don't know why I'm so concerned over mine, I love listening to other people's accents
Really great content, I was looking for something like this from long time.

Absolutely useful topic. Clear and confident communication must never be undermined. For communication enthusiasts like myself, effective communication means a lot.
