Jade, you had me at 'push my own comfort zone'. A very negative concept that many fall into is 'zone = brick wall'. You hit the nail on the head. If you want it to be an elastic boundary, it can be! The simple sum up. You're an emotional genius mate!

[@Zzn129]

hi Jade..., I am happy to see you speak in front of people. 😍

[@vIkSyNeX]

I find your voice very calming/hypnotic.

[@czamman]

Classroom is definitely all yours. Your engagement with the students reading their face to see if there's a connection. Your presentation brings smiles and laughter into the classroom breaking down ice. Then again these students must have been studying all night, no energy. Great to watch thank you

[@Inaflap]

When I saw the running shoes my first thought was you'd prepared for a quick escape.

[@kittyluv2564]

Beautiful speech and beautiful speaker

[@cwehden]

that improvised speech stuff is exactly what I'm working on in my own content at the moment, let it all out no filter at all, it's much harder than I thought it would be..

[@OlgasBritishFells]

Jade, you are simply amazing! You are so diligence and determined. You have my admiration. Thank you for sharing this speech, you made me understand so much more about you and people in general. Plus, you had some useful ideas about You Tubing.

[@εμαντ]

With all respects! Thank you for all the things you have done. Congratulations!

[@vIkSyNeX]

Nice of the Hull University students to give you an award at end. Hull Public Speaking Society 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@luzpueblalara4128]

This is one of my favourite English learning channel. I like the way you speak and the excercises you give us. I give private lessons myself and I study dramatic art too, so a huge part of what you teach it's very useful to me, they are related knowledges, I guess. Greetings from Argentina.

[@dasglasperlenspiel10]

Thank you. I have been encouraged to make a series of videos in my subject (music), and I have to contend with many of the same difficulties that you have faced. You are very inspiring, in a rather calm and unpretentious way.

[@farhadctgbd]

You are a motivation for those who want to learn English . They way you expressed your self was very impressive !! Thanks Farhad

[@MauroSanna]

I don't know if you speak like that on purpose, Jade, but you are one on the few English native speakers that I can understand 100% of what you're saying. I mean in every video you've done so far, not only those meant to teach people. That is great!

[@seeyouthen]

Well done Jade for stepping out of your comfort zone. One observation I noticed was a boundary one. At the start of the video you stayed at the top of the class keeping a distance of sorts. As the talk went on and you got more comfortable you often venture a little way up the aisle between the seats almost reassured that you had a friendly audience.

[@abdessamadabarbach3551]

Nice performance jade . You are great teacher. I like your public speaking, I know something new about you today that you are a good in improvisation at a public speaking. Good luck

[@yue1642]

I am soooo jealous these students in Hull, hope you can come to UCL to us a talk, I am a super fan of you!

[@JadeJoddle]

I would come for sure... Ask some people to see if it's possible!

[@yue1642]

Yeah, I'll try my best to make this happen :)

[@SnookerQtr]

ethan zhang I will try my best in Swansea University to invite u jade hope u don't mind the 4 hrs trip from London to Swansea.

[@Ghost____Rider]

UCL!

[@carlosacevedo3951]

Great speech and wonderful Outfit You are Amazing Teacher Jade!!!!

[@angelestassi8328]

Thank you, Jade. Though I understand that this is business for you, you are still very generous with your knowledge.

[@amjed28]

Jade , you did a great Speech. It was amazing. Keep doing such things. All the best and good luck.

[@Pseudosurfer]

Sending loads of love your way, Jade. Thank you for your videos!

[@joyceslp]

You look calm and relaxed and your voice sounds great! Give yourself a pat on the back :))) I wasn't at home so only watched the beginning and the end. Will save it for tomorrow :) I need to grab a pen and a notebook. :P

[@rz6670]

Hi Jade, One of the old admirer 4 years ago!! I certainly agree with you on public speaking is different. I suggest that speech exercises you need to detach yourself by using alternative screen (Technology) and click away any material you already have on KZbin! I admit that I never published any video because I hate my voice! I used KZbin to listen to lectures back in 2008 so it is almost 10 years and the tools available today is just beyond my imagination! Good luck. Remy

[@diggingtreasure1]

That's a long time to improvise a speech Jade, well done. I've seen that video on American pronunciation. Funny how some people took it so personal. Things are pronounced differently even within America there are completely different pronunciations and accents. Next time you do a video about pronunciation include the word aluminium aka aluminum.

[@ceciliagarciaflores3398]

I enjoyed your video very much. Thank you.

[@amaurycacciacarrofilho684]

Nice to hear you again Jade. Miss you !

[@X87816]

Hi Jade, wish I could have been there with you. very educational and good to watch you in person.

[@vIkSyNeX]

Like the video. Admire your honesty.

[@ivelinadinkova]

Well done Jade!

[@santagemma6212]

A great English Teacher. Wish I had someone like her when I studied in the outskirts of Bournemouth, Dorset, South England. But it went well anyway.

[@andrecarvalho4596]

Hi jade, I spent a week in Hull 27 years ago when I was in the navy college. A very nice town.

[@zainnoorrahman4821]

I promise you a download to the video. Keep it up Jade! As always :-)

[@marcel24ameno]

Yesssss,every day is different.. even every bit of day ,Powerful Words Jade!!!!

[@brook_756]

Hi, I am from Indonesia. I like your videos coz I can improve my listening skills and speaking as well especially British English. Hope one day I'll be there, England. To pursue my master degree in Cultural Studies. Anyway, nice video Jade. :).

[@janjanysek3749]

thank You Jade, i benefit a lot from what you do , I started with the 20 minutes of english a day technique.

[@xsez2]

Fan Fan Fan ... I'm Totally In Love With Your Talent And Communication !💗💖💗💕🌟

[@mostafaibrahem4046]

i love English because of you jade . i fond of you . with love

[@rodrigooliveira494]

What is good about speaking in public is when you already know beforehand what to say. I was asked once to teach before a few people and because I wasn`t so familiar about what I should teach I felt like I would die. What an awful experience!

[@Kelgrafar]

This was a bit long so i ended up listening to it like a podcast. I was glad I did, I enjoyed the talk--! I'm always interested to hear how fellow introverts approach public speaking Very brave BTW! Oh, and If you want to do animations maybe you should collaborate with an animator and just draw the key-frames. If you find somebody who can use your drawing style they can fill in the between-frames and it spreads out the workload

[@water3527]

I speak fast, which makes my words unclear and people often ask me to repeat myself. I speak fast because I am short of breath or forget to breathe and I want it over. I believe it is anxiety. I am looking for ways to overcome this fear. I am starting to view myself and all those around me as finite with a minuscule amount of time in existences. Every mistake, opinion, failure, success, achievement, life-led will be forgotten. for when we die, so does everything else. So why should I have fear? I try my best and sometimes I fail. I don't know if this mindset is healthy but it is helpful when I struggle.

[@TheAnish01]

Perhaps she has gained much countenance and confidence in the recent years. Keep it up ma'am.

[@chrissya8370]

I literally do the same thing. Before the words come out of my mouth, they're always checked in my head.. Sometimes I even try to visualise the words in my head, check them, replace some of them, reorder some of them, until they form a perfect sentence, and read them out :D It's just a speaking habit, nothing wrong right?

[@euanc9373]

Amazing! I love your long videos!

[@رحمةعثمان-خ3ج]

your acent so nice

[@Lupacchi8Romanista]

Hi Jade...I've just found out, by watching this video, how your personality is interesting....you've probably been working on yourself....and yes I think you used to be shy and now you're so extrovert because you've decided to "metterti in gioco". I do really like your videos because you TEACH in the simple way English. It's also thank to you I speak in English regardless my mistakes and yes you're right "sbagliando si impara". Keep up with your good job!!! I'm looking forward to new your videos.

[@Armaanzee10]

Jade thank you so much for this video.

[@josepablolunasanchez1283]

There is a novel called "I am Jade Falcon". This was the first thought when I read the name Jade.

[@datphantien2947]

You look great

[@gastonfoche9694]

you need to do a TED talk! you would great at it.

[@رحمةعثمان-خ3ج]

this video is good for me

[@frankciccone8559]

Very informative. Cannot figure out if you're circling your prey, or getting ready to do a stand-up comedy routine.

[@minto7699]

she came .....she saw.....she conquered.......do more videos with Richard grannon , they where really good.... please.

[@allforIndonesia]

looking forward to your next video,

[@Inaflap]

According to the Dunning-Kruger effect, intelligence and confidence are inversely proportional. Greater self awareness brings internal concerns about performance and a need for perfection, whilst the saying goes, ignorance is bliss. I'm not sure if this is entirely true, but I have met clever but diffident people, and plenty more that seem to ooze (unfounded) confidence. Confident people do tend to hold the attention of others. What's the other saying... It's not what you say but how you say it? Tone of voice... that sort of thing. Sorry I realise you must know this stuff. Politicians need confidence to put themselves forward, yet many of them seem idiotic. There are clever ones amongst them... Thatcher had a degree in Chemistry from Oxford I think... She had vocal training lessons to deepen (masculate) her voice to give her the air of more authority and confidence. Anyway it's my belief that if you are someone who tends to intellectualise things, it can be harder to make a start on anything. You keep noticing potential difficulties that lie ahead. I think this is similar to your initial attempts at making perfect videos from start to end. It is good to have standards but they can't be so high as to impede progress. As you pointed out, you sometimes just need to accept you can't be perfect, but that you will improve through the experience. It is by making mistakes that we can grow and improve, as you clearly have. Anyway, I think you sounded very natural (and so also likeable) when talking in front of this group. I like that you don't rush through what you have to say. I'm not keen on these quick cut videos. I can feel my breathing increase as I tend to synchronise cadence with the speaker... and whilst they maintain an artificially high rate (through editing), I cannot do the same in real life. They just make me feel uncomfortable. I tend to have less trust for fast talkers too, as I feel they don't want me to have time to digest what is being said.

[@marymary5494]

This was fascinating, thank you. Jade here you talk about your other channels, could you provide links to these channels please.

[@CristianRomero-up1nj]

You look so cute dear Jade.

[@teacherrefat2259]

I did it several times when I was at my university.

[@MrTagagagaga]

hey Jade. it's really nice to see you back. could you link me please that video about american accent you just told? couldn't find.

[@رحمةعثمان-خ3ج]

I follow all your you tube

[@agaabram1812]

Great video. Made me realize so many things.

[@JoseReyes-yr4we]

you are very talented, it would be interesting to hear what drives you and where you get your ideas, and creativity, for you seemed to be a natural no matter no matter what you do. congrats.

[@andersonantonio]

You did it very well. And I could see that you're even nicer in person. ýou have nice capacity of interaction and your smile is charming .

[@ahmedkanaan4785]

How lucky those students are, I would do anything to get a seat in that class.

[@shamsghafoor2974]

Jade is awesome genious.

[@nicolasfrebillot7899]

Brilliant

[@VernonJLawrence]

Jade, you would make a good college professor.

[@Davran23]

I think your speaking behaviour has changed in front of the audience, could you tell us how you felt and what do you suggest for us?

[@krishna444]

You are great, your video is great! BTW, where is the link of quizzes?

[@mdrustam6237]

Wow ma'am i never missed ur videos...

[@رحمةعثمان-خ3ج]

I enjoyed this video

[@lukypetru]

Very nice speech, I love the way you do it, though! That's just a little bit jerky, it really doesn't matter at all, it's just as fine. Please keep up the good work! We will always love you, love!

[@footangnanglaaggg2827]

ure awesome jade

[@LEONINMusic]

Congrats!

[@johntynan8161]

...hi Jade i like your accent

[@marcel24ameno]

Traditional School of Jade Joddle

[@asavchuk]

It would be nice if there were subtitles.

[@NahidRahman11]

impressive,,jade

[@chumacero45]

hola estoy mejorando el entender el ingles pero no me siento confiado a escribir en ingles, quiza la proxima ves, saludos guapa maestra.

[@poloikary]

The explanation of the brain is a famous neuromyth. Overall the video is good

[@tanhockjun]

feeling quite awkward...

[@Ig2011ify]

What did they present you in the end? What is that in the black box?

[@sniegobarsas]

hy, was great ,video will soon ...see you...ifIIu

[@joseleonidantasnuneslealda3722]

Wow Liked it! very funny! gostei muito do seu discurso, eu sempre gostei dos seus videos, eu estou aprendendo muitas palavras em ENGLISH com você!!!! my congratulations.

[@marymmmmm741]

wow

[@MeTheRob]

You have a very relaxed presence. I was quite surprised. I'd like to see you doing more talks. And another thought for the future - how about some workshops, or at least some kind of interactive situation, which could combine your teaching and speaking skills ?

[@joyceslp]

Yea I'd love to see more Jade Talks too! Hope she can go live some day so fans can interact with her.

[@JadeJoddle]

Yes I would like to do that kind of thing.

[@KingFisheR00011]

Jade, we shall discuss politics more often here, don't you think? Don't you remember how fun it was when you did some videos on Brexit? Or your living in Turkey? Or amongst the Arabs? Fun was it, wasn't it? Besides, it's really a lot easier to learn anything at the most recent events and hotspots, right? Shall we??? Please,please, please, huh?

[@santagemma6212]

A beautiful British accent important to emulate.

[@Yungchiphang]

jade you're always amazing...... I've always loved your videos. this one is a bit disappointing. not that your speech wasn't good but your clothing for this show is completely a mess. why trainers when you're talking to a bunch of university students ??? what's the small bag or pouch behind your back...... you look like you're out for a morning run. do not ever forget that what you wear says a lot about you. right now its more Like an " I don't care" kind of a person which isn't true with the person you are. nice lesson over all.

[@GovindSingh-sb3nj]

Hi

[@marcel24ameno]

too much fire....hahaha,that's why...

[@Ls-jm2bd]

Hello Jade, I think I ve heard you saying ''Im not used to doing this'' the phrase USED TO DOING. isnt TO a preposition, and what comes after it should not include an ''ING''! I thought saying that way is an Ameican thing only. or is the phrase USED TO is dealt with as a whole, or has a special case!?. forgive me, for Im a self taught when it comes to English. like your video, regards.

[@TheSerj007]

it's the gerund. To be used TO doING smth. After a preposition usually goes gerund which is verb+ing. In situations like: I'm tired of workING, I'm interested in studyING, I'm looking forward to meetING you, I'm used to speakING English. And you must be speaking about "to" as a particle in infinitives like: I like to sing, I want to go, I need to eat something. Look up "infinitive vs gerund" on the internet.

[@Ls-jm2bd]

Сергей Полянский, Thank you pal. I have checked it out on the internet, and yes you are right.. I guess I have mistaken it withe the infinitive TO. Appreciate it.

[@RobBCactive]

Both are right depending on if use is used as a verb or adjective in past participle.. I used to be at Uni. I use computers. I'm used to real ale. I'm used to sleeping more. (sleeping is a gerund). The minimal grammar makes it confusing, verbs transform into adjectives and nouns.

[@wizbang4952]

👍

[@salilsahani2721]

:)

[@KingFisheR00011]

Amurikans are getting so pissed off about the way they speak not because they feel insecure or something. They just don't wanna be "the Brit's younger brother" anymore. It is kinda silly, indeed, but they still think they kinda are. :lol:

[@sheeltushar798]

Jade you're a beautiful woman ❤️😍

[@usmanchohan5202]

you are an alien observing our planet specifically animals

[@jamj2000]

🤓

[@frankpastrana602]

How tall are you ,girl ?

[@lucacarafa2686]

Jade, you aren't supposed to wear trainers when you make a speech. Maybe a nice skirt and pearls give you more authority. Our outfit must be coherent with ourselves if we want others to believe us.

[@JadeJoddle]

I don't care if other people believe me or not, I do it for myself.

[@AutsajderRR]

Yeah, fuck conventions be yourself... as long as you not harm anyone ;)

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

that's absolute rubbish, I don't care about what she's wearing but about what she's speaking

[@chevystatesman350]

Yes Jade can wear whatever she likes. But just because she can doesn't make it right. If she felt comfortable wearing what she did that's good. Now taking herself further from her comfort zone. She could dress a bit smarter.

[@ornitopherus]

LUCA CARAFA you don't get it...
