STOP SAYING UM, AH, ER, LIKE... | Avoid Using Fillers for Effective Speaking

In conversation, you hear utterances like “um“ or “uh“ quite often. Or even words such as “like“ or “so“ that have no real meaning other than telling someone you’re not done talking. These fillers are a part of the way we speak. But sometimes they may be overused when we are nervous and can’t think of the words we would like to say. In this case, you want to minimize your use of fillers in order to improve your speaking fluency. So let’s talk about what you need to do in order to avoid using fillers and start speaking effectively. #InteractiveEnglish #EffectiveSpeaking LESSON CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro to understanding fillers 1:57 The difference between a pause and a filler 3:47 How fillers affect your speaking fluency 6:09 How to avoid using fillers 7:31 Join my speaking course [SPECIAL DISCOUNT] -------------------------- HELP SUPPORT INTERACTIVE ENGLISH 💖 Become a Member on YouTube 🎊 👉 Support Our Lessons On Patreon (awesome rewards) 🎉 👉 -------------------------- JOIN OUR COMMUNITY 📬 (Access the Secret Fluency Lesson) 🤫 👉 -------------------------- LINKS TO PRACTICE & IMPROVE YOUR ENGLISH ✅ Improve Your Listening w/ Audiobooks.
