Hello Mr. Lyon. I've been following many of your tips for quite some time. Not for business since I only distribute newspapers, but because of my religious duty. I hold meetings and presentations in my Church. May I ask you what kind of vocabulary app would you recommend please? Thank you.
@@viclucyzia Sorry I missed this. I don't use a vocabulary app personally but I know lots of people who do and love them. There are a bunch of free apps that do this.
I love your stuff, but I feel like it's a how to lie effectively manual. (Not that I think that but I wanted to share it)
Hi, Alex! I've been using some of your short lectures in my Business English classes. They are doing wonders with my students. Thank you for making such good content available!
Thank you for sharing them!
I've watched quite a few videos of yours, they all have absolutely great content. I listen to your videos on my way to work, they are like coffee in the morning to wake me up and reinforce my consulting skills. This particular one is a jewel in the crown for me.
I work as a CTO for a small technology company.
Thanks Alex 🙏
I'm glad this one hit the spot, RN Reddy. Thanks for the positive feedback.
Just watched your video on being articulate, Alex, and I've got to say - it's a game-changer! Your tips on pausing and using a conversational tone are not only easy to understand, but they've made an immediate impact on my communication skills. Can't wait to see what else you've got in store for us! Keep up the awesome work, Alex! 👍🚀📈📈
Thank you, Danny. I appreciate the comment.
Yes!! to seem as if one is trying too hard when using big words too frequently. I know someone who does this often. 😬
I also used a dictionary growing up, and make my (homeschooled) children practice using one, as well. 😉
Lots of great tips. Thanks for sharing them! 😊
Alex thank you for this video. What a great lesson. I often find the message gets lost in the delivery. I plan to use this as a teaching tool to our leadership team.
Thanks for the great tips, Alex. Adding pauses and slowing our pacing, as you’ve also said,
helps increases peoples’ perceptions of our credibility and being articulate.
Yes, that helps too. I may make a follow up video with additional tips like that.
Always learning something new, I need to have the *desire* to speak less. As a verbal processor and verbal thinker this is very difficult to do and takes much more discipline. Thank you for the tips!
Such GREAT advice!! I love how you refine and condense these practical lessons in such a helpful, user-friendly way! Thank you, Coach Alex!! ❤❤
hallelujah I finally found the coach I need!!
Love your video Alex and thanks for sharing practice ideas after each tip. I find some TH-camrs only talk about theoretical ideas without providing concrete tips, which is much harder to implement. Thanks for sharing these resources for free!
I know there is already a recap at the end of the video, but I absorb information better when I write it down (plus I can also write down some thoughts and suggestions of my own). This is more like my personal recap. However, feel free to copy it down!
1. *Build your vocabulary*
- Do not use "fancy" words.
- Find a word that helps people *understand* you; Make sure the word is precise and simple.
- Limit yourself to *one* "fancy" word per conversation.
- Read books and circle words that are *unfamiliar* to you. Then, look up the words on Google.
- You can use a dictionary or a vocabulary app to help you.
- Try to use the words you have learned in a sentence. Practice saying it a *few times a day*.
2. *Explain complex ideas in plain language*
- When you explain a complex idea, *do not* use technical terms (phrases that people use in a specific field).
- Use words that the listener can *understand* , especially someone who is new to a topic.
- Leave out any points that *do not* support the idea, but keep the important parts.
- *Slow down* and prepare what you'd like to say ahead of time.
- Repeat what you'd like to say in your head and make changes to it until it sounds smooth.
3. *Support ideas with evidence*
- After you state your main point, use examples, facts, or your experiences to *support* the point.
- People will be more *convinced* and view you as trustworthy.
4. *Explain both sides*
- Mention the pros *and* cons of a view or topic. An example will be looking over your viewpoint and your opponent's viewpoint when you get to an argument and comparing them, instead of focusing on your own points.
- This makes people see you as a careful thinker.
5. *Answer questions directly*
- When you are asked a question, try to answer in *two or three sentences*.
- If the answer is *too short* , you may sound like you don't want to talk about it.
- If the answer is *too long* , you may sound like you're rambling.
- If you *do* have a lot to say, break it down into a back-and-forth conversation instead of one long monologue.
- Doing this also makes the listener feel like they matter in the conversation.
Hello Alex, Grateful for having found your videos as I am hoping to transition from retail to administration employment.
Very helpful for sure!
I am the worst conversationalist, I either talk too little or too much!
And I admire people that are smooth and collective when conveying their thoughts! It’s an art!
Do use these tips for interviews as well??👏🙏🏽👏
Yes, these are tips to be more well spoken generally. They are not specific to interviews but will certainly help in all conversations, meetings, and presentations.
Loved your tips on how to build vocabulary! God Bless your channel! Brenda from NZ
Glad it was helpful, Brenda. God bless you too.
Q&A should be a conversation between the presenter and the audience. Thanks for sharing these tips, Alex!
Hi Alex,
As a student, articulating my speech is a challenge.
When I presented to readers about my knowledge of a prompt, each one replied my speech was wordy and boring and may have additional questions. Regarding my knowledge, I tried to keep my sentences short as possible. When readers have a question that I am not able to articulate, I already know that I am going to hesitate and include filter words
Thank you for publishing this video.
As an introvert, i am going through the same situation. I've a ton of words in my mind but i can't articulate them at the right time.
Thank you for sharing a valuable topic like this🍀
Good evening, Alex! I'm Violetta from Belarus. I am writing my thesis on communication soft skills and by luck came across your channel! I'd like to refer to your works on the subject in my paper! Could you please share the links to your articles and books. Would be warm-heartedly thankful to you)))
You are a blessing! GOD BLESS YOU
I liked this one for the topic before even watching! Thank you for all your videos
Your videos are fantastic❤️❤️❤️
I found this material helpful. Nice job.
Thank you for your wisdom and logic you share with us.
Thanks for listening, Ruby.
wow, you have disseminated this matter so perfectly, simply ad clearly. A big help to me. Thank you
Glad it was helpful, Shane.
Love your videos! Thank you for tips.
You are so welcome!
Excellent Alex,
Thank you 👍👍👍❤
Really useful thank you!
Thanks for saying God bless ❤
Sooo good, thanks Coach!🙏🏻
I discovered your channel today& am a new subscriber.
super helpful thank you
video imported in my head.
Very helpful tips. Thanks.
Thanks, Sharon.
Thank you
I hope to be more articulate in my native language someday. I’ve been focusing my energies primarily on English rather than my native language, which has caused me to be more fluent in that than my native language. I find that a little upsetting, since I need my native language much more than I need English. Hopefully I can improve my vocabulary to the extent that I will be able to converse with others in a manner that will put me in a greater light amongst my peers.
Woah, it looks ridiculous when I try to be articulate. Lol.
This video is just wow
tnks. must say you are articulate :)
Thanks
Speaking of dictionaries, oh boy. I remember those days with big, heavy & thick books. The problem with the book dictionary is that there is no sound. You rely on the symbols to figure out the pronunciation.
Now, with the internet, not only can we hear the pronunciation but also different accents.
I love those old books!
One of the perks with the internet!
This helps out GREATLY! My mother always says that I "Go all the way around my ass to get to my elbow!" when I try and explain something, and my husband says "Land the plane!" ugh! I just can't seem to say what I want in a tactful way without having to re-explain what I'm trying to say in 5 different ways! I'm learning though, with your videos! THANKS!!!!!
Yes. I understand. My son always tells me to land the plane. I've gotten much better at cutting out the fat that no one is interested in. Just unnecessary details.🤦♀️
If I think about it, I also like it when someone just gets to the point. If I'd like to hear the details after hearing the message, I'll ask for clarification. I need to follow my own rules and these 5 tips!
@@Shannon0470 Same! The funny thing is is that when I'm telling a story I feel like people need to know the details because if they don't they won't understand the punch line or the end result. Exactly like you, Shannon I think to myself, If I was having this story told to me, would I need to know all this stuff? Answer...NO LOL
❤❤❤❤ vrai bien dit ☺️
This is a lot like the basic format for writing an argumentative essay.
Such as, “affect” vs. “effect”.
I appreciate your work....We are missing root cause of human continuance in one direction or another. And no one even savvy's the depth of this.... Would anything stop us if we had self love and full appreciation for ourselves being a constant backdrop everywhere it's not?
Any “recommended app” suggestions? 1:43
I don't personally use a vocabulary app to recommend. I still look up words every day as a habit. I just Google them now, though. But I do know some people and they LOVE their vocab apps. I'm sure there are some free versions you could try. If you find one you end up liking, feel free to drop another comment so others can see your recommendation.
Hi Alex, am a starter and I get nervous when am starting with shaky hands and stabilise later on. What do I do?
I have a few videos on speaking anxiety. If you search for Speaking Anxiety Mindset Tips and Speaking Anxiety Behavioral Tips, those two videos are a good starting place.
@@alexanderlyon okay. Would like to have it. I want to learn and be great in Public speaking
I am trying to change my tone ! I don’t have communication skills 😢
I do have two videos on _tone of voice_ and _changing your tone of voice_ . You can search for those titles with my name and they should come up.
❤
Do you have a Twitter?
Nope, but I'm on LinkedIn.
I'm afraid that I'm that much behind that it's too late and I will never catch up.
It’s never too late, my friend. You can do it!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

❤👍
talk about using lazy grammar please. Fer instead of for especially.
Dont be like Russel brand
