English vital essential why is it so vital  why is it essential when someone is unsure of  
32
281840
13160
04:55
themselves uncertain if they lack confidence they  are sure of themselves their mistakes become more
33
295000
10520
05:05
noticeable you pick up on their errors  you pick up on means you become aware  
34
305520
11080
05:16
of you notice their errors mannerisms and  even the way they use their voice and Body
35
316600
7200
05:23
Language things like filler words um um  uh and um they stand out more in a lack of
36
323800
12760
05:36
confidence generally when someone isn't confident  their discomfort shows it's visible it's apparent  
37
336560
12120
05:48
it shows whether they try to mask it or not  whether they try to hide it or conceal it  
38
348680
9480
05:58
mask it or or not it shows their discomfort will  show you can often spot subtle signs which can  
39
358160
11360
06:09
turn your attention away from their message and  instead highlight how they're behaving you start  
40
369520
9560
06:19
to think about how they're behaving instead  of listening to their message think back to  
41
379080
7200
06:26
the classroom setting where a student has to  give a speech but appears visibly nervous and
42
386280
8480
06:34
unsure if they aren't familiar with  their topic their nerves might cause  
43
394760
9880
06:44
them to shake their voice to  tremble or even their face to
44
404640
5240
06:49
flush this extreme example underscores  how we notice signs of insecurity  
45
409880
9640
07:01
rather than the content of their speech so rather  
46
421240
5640
07:06
than paying attention to the content of  the speech we start to notice signs of
47
426880
6640
07:13
insecurity a similar but less intense scenario  happens when someone speaks a foreign language  
48
433520
10600
07:24
with uncertainty so when you speak English  with uncertainty a very similar scenario
49
444120
8280
07:32
happens their unease is palpable diverting your  focus to their communication issues palpable  
50
452400
15120
07:47
what's palpable it means it's so intense that  it almost feels like you could touch it it's  
51
467520
5400
07:52
palpable almost feels like you could touch it  their unease their you know their mistakes are  
52
472920
6680
07:59
diverting well not mistakes their their  lack of confidence that's what I should  
53
479600
4640
08:04
say their unease is palpable diverting  your focus to their communication issues  
54
484240
7880
08:12
moreover a lack of confidence can  weaken the persuasiveness of their
55
492120
7920
08:20
message if I confidently express my  beliefs to you you're more likely to be  
56
500040
9640
08:29
sway than if I share my thoughts
57
509680
3240
08:32
hesitantly a confident  delivery makes for a stronger
58
512920
8560
08:41
message also encountering uncertainty  in conversation can create
59
521480
8880
08:50
awkwardness and we naturally prefer  to avoid uncomfortable exchanges  
60
530360
9080
09:00
you know exactly what I mean don't you  yeah you do confidence can transform the  
61
540840
7840
09:08
dynamic of a conversation when  someone speaks with Assurance  
62
548680
6920
09:15
the atmosphere becomes more pleasant  devoid of nervous tension or awkward
63
555600
6400
09:22
pauses people tend to feel more  positively about a confident speaker
64
562000
7360
09:32
allowing them to concentrate on the topic rather  than fixate on linguistic errors or grammar
65
572280
9560
09:41
mistakes so if you're confident that  allows other people to concentrate on  
66
581840
6920
09:48
the topic of the conversation rather than  look at you and make judgments about your  
67
588760
7320
09:56
errors or your grammar mistakes from my  experience teaching thousands of students  
68
596080
7120
10:03
I've observed that when a student  exudes confidence it transforms our
69
603200
6920
10:10
interaction even if they make numerous  mistakes I barely register them it's  
70
610120
10600
10:20
as if I'm solely focused on  their ideas and the topic at
71
620720
4560
10:25
hand this Rel relaxed State makes our conversation  more enjoyable allowing me to connect with them  
72
625280
12640
10:37
on a genuine level so when you're confident  your mistakes can seem insignificant and it  
73
637920
12600
10:50
feels like you're navigating the conversation  with ease even when plenty of Errors Maybe
74
650520
9000
10:59
present overall it's clear that confidence plays  a pivotal role in your conversations especially  
75
659520
13440
11:12
when you're speaking English or any foreign  language over the years I've witnessed this  
76
672960
8200
11:21
countless times many students have made numerous  mistakes during a class but their confident  
77
681160
8080
11:30
makes it seem as though they have  a solid command of the language in  
78
690000
7040
11:37
essence the importance of confidence in your  speech far outweighs the frequency of your
79
697040
8520
11:45
mistakes and that's the topic of today all right  I said it nice and slow I didn't give you time to  
80
705560
9320
11:54
repeat or anything well sometimes I did now I just  just want to do that entire speech that entire  
81
714880
7640
12:02
text again nonstop and now you can try to say it  with me read along with me um let's enunciate and  
82
722520
7400
12:09

83
729920
11320
12:21
your English game focus on this one important  aspect confidence rather than diving into

85
752200
9320
12:41
confident when speaking when someone speaks with  confidence they not only sound more advanced but  
86
761520
9480
12:51
also convey a sense of fluency that's the main  topic of today's discussion the significance of  
87
771000
10920
13:01

88
781920
8920
13:10
