How and When to Speak Up with Confidence in English
Be ready to speak up and share your ideas in English with confidence, even if no one pauses to ask you what you think or there isn’t a clear break in the conversation.
You know you have something valuable to say but the problem is you don’t know how to start sharing your thoughts without being asked.
Is there an appropriate way to speak up without missing an important opportunity?
Yes! In this Confident English lesson, you’ll learn how and when to speak up in English - without feeling rude, without needing to apologize, and without missing opportunities.
You’ll learn how to make sure your voice is heard and what phrases you can use to confidently speak up in English.
Then, at the end, I have 2 practice scenarios for you.

Hello. Thank you always. Regardless of language, I am often faced these situations like “How and When to Speak Up” at meetings. Moreover, I can't speak English fluently, so this is likely to be a more struggle situation. Scenario 1.)Follow your third suggestion. I ask my boss to give me a couple of time to jump in some during the meeting. In that case, I should help make the agenda for the meeting. Scenario 2.) This follows your first suggestion. I first agree with another opinion and naturally add my opinion to it. "I think it's a good idea, and wouldn't it be better if we added these to it?" I would say. Thank you for reading. If you have the time, would you please point out above my sentences?

Thank you for sharing how you would handle creating opportunities to speak up, Yuko! It certainly is a challenge when we don't feel comfortable but the 2 strategies you outlined can work very well. One question. I saw "I should help make the agenda..." Does your boss typically share the agenda before the meeting? In that can, a better verb to use is "to review" the agenda.
Thank you for such precious lesson, Anne Marie. In scenario 1, I would probably raise up my hand and try to be as polite as I could in sharing my different point of view. I would say something like "While I totally agree with what you were mentioning about the first topic, I do have a different opinion on your last thoughts". When it comes to scenario 2, I would probably try to "book" a space for adding my thoughts asking my boss for scheduling my contribute.

Hi, I know how to speak English using only simple words or phrases, but when I hear someone use a specific word / sentence, I really like it. The problem is I do not know how to use it?

It is really helpful to listen your KZread. I know you do a great job with professional manner, but I really want to share my idea, about your camera location room, situation, ( same plants, not interesting bookshelves , too many years,,you need to also entertain , concern visually for your listener, viewer. ( it doesn’t match with your lecture,,,) Everybody is very much sensitive at visual. If you change your backdrop, just make simple, it would be more effective with your lecture, Just check your video last for several years
wow I love this blouse on you in my opinion it's the most beautiful
