Madam with due respect I would like to say that true and genuine videos for learning have very less views and subscribers. But you should continue your legacy to inspire millions. A note from a future leader.

[@kararonin]

Thank you so much for your support Jyotirmay! Your message of encouragement is very kind. Your views, likes and comments mean a lot and count towards growing my channel 🙏

After watching it again, I believe that the 3-second pause is crucial, although I only just noticed it. Practising the skills and watching the video multiple times is also important to embody the character.

[@BrunoMCDowell]

As someone who speaks English as a second language, I have been learning about how to be more articulate when communicating with others. I must say this is the best video I've watched on the topic. You have an amazing channel full of priceless content. Thank you for your outstanding work.

[@kararonin]

Thank you for your kind comment, Bruno!

[@LeethL]

Wow, i loved your explanation of raising your chin!! You dont want to go too far otherwise you end up looking down your nose, true?! Thank you, i appreciate your channel so much, this precisely the information I need, i am re emerging after some severe social anxiety episodes. I began communicating with people and leaving the house again only 2 weeks ago and for the first week, i kept stumbling over my words, stuttering and then getting embarrassed and the chain reaction that leads to me isolating had already begun, but i just kept trying again every day. My point being, i began breaking my cage by commenting to creators that have divulged a golden nugget to me, and thus provided me with tool upon tool, until i filled my tool chest enough so that i had courage to break free. It is a long and slow journey, i have unfortunately been here before, but not with a tool box like i do now. So, thank you, from the bottom of my heart ❤️ Today has been a great day

[@gabrielgkabelen9824]

Thanks so much, dear--really Professional Speaker.

[@user-hw7tv1sj6u]

Hello Kara.You are a brilliant teacher. You deserve a pat on the back. Your video is helpful, it takes my English to the next level. I can't agree you more, we are on the same page. You were like my teacher long, long time ago. When I was a school boy in English college, my English teacher told me to use simple English in 1964. Simple English is good English. I am an authentic Chinese, my Chinese accent is not completely the best, but people get the idea. I speak English fluency with flow--short and simple, correct pronunciation and good grammar , word stress and sentence stress at a normal natural pace. How many people would know the meaning of good English ? I speak through observation, many Chinese are exaggerating, they are trying to show off, they are bragging about their English. May be they want to perfect their English at this point. Nobody is perfect, even the native English speaker can't speak perfect English. I was insulted by a small-minded Englishman, he said to me that you can't make the point, your English is rubbish in 2016. I wonder can he speak Chinese as good as I speak English ? Language is a tool to communicate with people, my goal is to be able to communicate as a speaker and as a silent listener. I learn a lot more from you in this video, if people watch this video and learn from it, they can do anything, they can be anybody in English. I am seventy-eight years old, I am still learning because my native language is Chinese, English is my second language. Learning never ends. I enjoy your video, I really appreciate it. You are doing great. Thanks so much. Have a great day. Bye for now, hope to see you soon in the next video.

Good information. Will try to implement these tips in my next presentation. The one thing I noticed is, I am able to articulate well during virtual meeting where I sit and speak but when it comes to in person meetings where I have to stand and deliver, it sucks.

[@GUAYABAFELIZ]

Hi Kara, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for this information! English is my second language. Improving my pronunciation has been my number one goal since I moved to the English speaking country I call home. I appreciate the points about posture and imitating other great speakers - like you. Slowing down the speed and pausing are two techniques that have helped me a lot to be understood with my accent. Sometimes, I use a little humor when I do not know the right pronunciation. Luckily, my family has helped me to polish those words that are still hard to pronounce. Your videos are a treasure chest and the information points are jewels. Thank you!

[@kararonin]

Thank you so much for your kind comment! I'm so glad my videos are helping you in your journey to becoming a great English speaker!

[@JAPANDYNOIR]

Thank you so much for boosting my confidence!

[@kararonin]

You're welcome! I'm glad to help out.

[@kararonin]

I'm glad you liked this video. Take a look at my playlist, Be More Articulate and Well Spoken for more videos like this one.

[@dane1976]

Great tips, very informative! As an introverted person who is in a leadership role, and desires to have the impact and influence you speak of is gold. Thank you! With the knowledge, I feel I am 1/3 of the way there-the remaining 2/3, putting it into action is the biggest hurdle b/c this really is a lifestyle/mindset shift. It makes me anxious to think if I am doing everything right. I am committed to coming out of my shell.

[@kararonin]

If you're committed, and you put in the effort, you will be able to have impact and influence when you speak. Remember, it doesn't happen overnight or without any practice at all.

[@InUrGirl]

Take 3.5 grams of psilocybin mushrooms then begin a microdosing regimen taking .3g of the shrooms each day and it will open you all the way up more than any video or coach could even come close to.

[@pocketcharts12]

Very well done-- In my opinion, I think it is important to pause ALSO, to give the OTHER person a chance to talk … listening is so important in a conversation… no one wants to be a listener the entire time… Get the listener to be engaged in the conversation! Try to make the talk a 50-50 give and take-- Do you agree with my assessment?
