STOP SOUNDING WEAK!

Do you sound weak? In this video, I give you examples of unconfident speaking styles. These are expressions people use when lacking in confidence about themselves and their opinions. We will be looking at indirect language: speaking with disclaimers, evading opinions, making oneself small, being doubtful of oneself, and being afraid to speak one’s mind. While it is sometimes necessary to communicate in an indirect way for the sake of politeness, it’s important to know how to speak in a more confident way too. When you communicate in a confident way, you are able to lead other people and to make a good impression. Learn about unconfident speaking styles in order to stop sounding weak!

By the way, everyone, there isn’t a quiz for this lesson! Sorry, we made a mistake. Here’s a cat gif.

Thank you Jade for this lesson. But it is too long. By the end of the lesson I’m no longer listening to what they mean. Just waiting for the end of the lesson. Lessons should be done for 12-15 minutes. So it is easier to remember the material and easier to learn. And there is always have time to repeat the lesson.

Zanat, um… do you watch Teacher Emma’s lessons? The lesson that teaches you to remember new words is almost 30 minutes! So Teacher Jade’s lesson isn’t so neccessarily so long.
