I recently viewed a youtube video that taught speech improvement. It focuses on speaking slowly, which allows your mind to think what to say next. In between sentences, and after a question is asked, you would pause for 3 seconds and then answer. It would allow you to eliminate the Umm, Uhh, Like, Such as, etc. Working in a call center, and always being pushed to increase productivity, I have been noticing my speech as rapid and not fluent. I will be experimenting with some of these tips, and hope to achieve this goal within a month.
People doing this are also doing these things:

I have a hard time putting my words together. I want that to end and I’m gonna do whatever I can to improve my speech.

If I could just improve my speech, it would sure help my confidence. When I talk, sometimes I can’t put what I’m thinking or feeling into words, especially when I’m nervous or excited. As a result, I stumble and stutter a lot. And there are pauses in my sentences. Yet, people have said that I write very well, of those who have read my writing, incuding teachers. It stresses me out whenever I have to talk in front of a group of people, or when I have to confront someone about a problem. I want to be able to talk smoother, to organize my thoughts more effectively, and be able to present myself better.
I’m trying to improve my speech by…. drum rolls adding the G back to the words ending in ‘ing’! It’s one small step for speech, but one big step for…um…success! lol I’ll start with saying TALKING instead of TALKIN’ and the same with all ‘-ing’ words and work my way up from there ! Booyakasha =]
My thoughts go ahead of my speech. Most of the times I dont fully explain what Im thinking, I assume that others are aware of it and completely ignore to explain the story fully.
I noticed a while ago that I would pronounce things a bit unseemly like “fir” for “for”, “shore” for “sure” and “becuz” for “because.” When I started adjusting the way I pronounce things, it felt a bit weird and sounded a bit off but some of the things I’ve been aware enough to fix make me sound a lot more well-spoken.
I still slur my “t”s to sound like “d”s though and I imagine if my speech problem annoys me enough, I can find a speech therapy coach. There are apparently a lot to choose from where I live due to, according to my friends, “the high concentration of foreign diplomats.” But that seems pricey.
So I’ll keep alert for slurs, fast talk, and unsavory sounds/pronounciations.
