How To Stop Mumbling - Use This Quick Technique
Get More Video Tips Here! www.JaenyBaik.com
What? Can you repeat that?
It always surprises me when my partner says that to me.
In my mind, and to my ear, I spoke clearly… but…. (mumble) it obviously didn’t come out that way because my partner often asks me to repeat myself.
Oh no. It’s happening to me. The lazy mouth.
You’re about to learn a quick exercise, that you can do almost anywhere, at anytime - it’s a technique that many professional broadcasters use before they go on air. It’s fun & silly, so make sure to watch this video to the end, so you can benefit from it.
So last week I MCed a non-profit gala called Untapped. They find employment for diverse groups such as people with disabilities, First Nations, and new immigrants. I was also interviewing the CEO of VanCity on stage, Tamara Vrooman so I wanted to do a good job.
Now I used to MC events all the time, but I’m out of practice. My mouth is out of shape! And I’m getting lazy with how I enunciate. This is bad news brown.
When you communicate, the objective is to be understood. And when you boil it down to the basics, it’s how you move your mouth.
Think of your mouth like an instrument. It needs tuning. It needs conditioning. It needs practice.
So how can you fine tune your mouth like an instrument, before you give a speech, or record a video?
Step one: get a pen.
Step two: put it in your mouth
Step three: say the alphabet
Try it with me!
See how that feels?
It stretches your mouth. Your mouth works harder.
And that’s what you want.
People have one chance to hear what you have to say.
So make your mouth work harder, over-enunciate your words, and keep your mouth in tip top shape.
Do you understand?
With a lazy mouth, you risk being misunderstood… or even worse, not heard at all.
Try the pen exercise and go to www.jaenybaik.com/blog to tell me how it worked for you!
Don’t get left behind, you can shine online.

I have lazy mouth + shyness. It's a horrible combination. I always come across as someone who is very insecure.

onee tbh I'm shy but when i think about the situation or whatever I'm talking about then i completely forget who I'm talking to, weather he is a stranger or not. I dropped out of school so i got shy and anxiety becuz i dont hangout or have friends irl so now i have more confidence when im talking to strangers or while gaming.. just think about wat ur talking about and forget who ur talking to!

I’m a 12 year old girl with and EXTREMELY low voice and I hate it but every time I talk no one can hear me because what I think is normal sound and clear is pretty much quiet mumbling to everyone else and I HATE talking so much and everyone keeps calling me a ventriloquist because I can talk clearly without moving my mouth at all which my school teacher hates so this video kinda helped, but only with to mumbling part now I just need to move my mouth more tho I know this will never happen
feels so bad that even my mouth is also lazy. looks like my entire body is lazy

The beginning of the video was so true for what I've experienced. I'd speak to people who work in stores or restaurants or whatever and they would say "I'm sorry, could you speak up?" or "what?!" I cant hear you and I would instantly be embarrassed and mad because of what they did but people doing that should make you want to be better instead of offended and hurt by it

@natalie7662 i have hearing device and im trying to speak with my throw because all in my life i spoke with my nose
nooo i swallowed the pen
I noticed an immediate change in my pronunciations using this technique. It helps to try and read an article in a newspaper or magazine with the pen in your mouth and then re-reading it again without it to really work. It also help to record yourself speaking before and after using the technique to really see the improvements.
Literally EVERYONE asks me what I’ve just said 🙄 I’m not confident in what I say, that’s the issue

I mumble and stutter and it's almost impossible for people to understand me except for friends and family... thank you for this
Thank you for this! I have horrible lazy mouth and you can barely understand a word I say. This is working great. Half of my insecurity comes from knowing you wont understand me so I speak loud and mumble to compensate and the vicious circle makes you not want to talk to anyone.
Finally someone without a British accent doing one of the videos. You speek good lady thank you!
I love your energy and this was a nice tip. I hate having people ask me to repeat myself..
Great exercise. I am a native English speaker and people have stated I mumble multiple times either face to face or on the phone. I am learning other foreign languages also, and will be doing this exercise with their alphabet as well.
I have a speech problem and I hate it when no one understands seriously they have no respect for people have a speech problem I hate it so much

I'm on my way of becoming more and more fluent in speaking. It's like a whole new journey from what I've learned before. I'm trying different pitches, tones, and now, the sound - the quality of the voice. I can't wait to see the day I could speak English fluently & precisely!! August 2022
wow This trick make me comfortable to speak Thanks for your suggestion. You are amazing ❤
i was shocked how well it actually worked, thank you
I cant belive this simple exercise helped so much.
I love all these comments. I'm glad a lot of people have the same thoughts and feelings as me.
Thank you Soo much, hope you are having a good time today.
Just wanted to say thank you for helping me out with my mumbling. Had this issue for years.
Also using your finger works too, just have to remember to not bite down very hard. Thank you for this 🖤
Thank you very much for this help video. I've been having constant talk problems, this may help me fix it greatly, thank you miss Jaeny.

You are absolutely correct about people hear you differently
Last day in interview they ask me you are mumbling i don't know anything so now i write on KZread so i found your video very useful
Perfect! Thanks for sharing. No more 'Lazy Mouth'!
I think this is exactly what I needed- thank you!!! : )
Thanks so much I fell ignore when I talk and also insecure but I'll try this Your the BEST 💯💯💯💯😊😊😊
When she said, "come on let's try it," she got me there!!😂
i love your energy, i love your video, love it all. thank you.
hi, thanks it does work. I actually try to recite a newspaper article everyday with the pen in my mouth; it forces you to enunciate better and when you take the pen out and recite the next paragraph you really hear the difference.

This video was really helpful, thanks! I usually have a HUGE problem with being unable to tell how I sound, because during class presentations I’m being extremely loud and confident but during class debates I never get my point across because nobody can hear me. It’s insane, this also happens when I try to order food and I try to speak clear but my voice cracks :/ I just have a lot of problems with my voice and it’s levels.
