1
Do you mumble?
2
Want to improve your articulation?
3
Do you have dysarthria caused by a  stroke or other neurologic disease?
4
This video is to help you speak more clearly now.
5
We're going to do 4 speech exercises  to practice speaking more clearly.
6
Talking is an automatic process and speaking more clearly initially involves turning  this into a voluntary process.
7
How? By over-enunciating and  slowing your rate of speech.
8
First let's talk about  over-enunciating or over-articulating.
9
Dysarthria tends to impact consonants  the most. So focusing on crisp and exaggerated consonant production  will help your speech clarity.
10
For example, if I'm saying the word  "talk" over-articulating the "t" and the "k" sound are going to help  the clarity of that word. Talk.
11
It might feel a little funny at first to  practice speaking this way but you get used to your oral motor movements  becoming bigger and more precise.
12
Practicing precise and accurate  articulations requires you to slow down.
13
Try taking a deep breath before you start  speaking and using pauses in natural places like the ends of phrases,  sentences and between thoughts.
14
Especially if you've had a stroke  or other neurologic disease your articulators like your tongue  and your lips may need some extra time to reach their targets than  prior to the neurologic incident.
15
So while we do these next exercises keep  in mind to over-articulate and go slow.
16
Exercise 1. Let's do diadochokinetic tasks.
17
Speech therapists often use  this as an assessment tool, but it can also be used as an  exercise for speech coordination.
18
We're going to repeat or alternate  some syllabic speech sounds.
19
Go slowly enough so that you can  maintain the same rate and clarity.
20
And you can gradually speed up as  long as your clarity does not change.
21
The first syllable we'll do is "puh".
22
Take a deep breath breath and say "puh" 10  times. Puh puh puh puh puh puh puh puh puh puh.
23
Now "tuh" Tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh "kuh" Kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh And now we'll put two of those together. "Puh-tuh" If you can't keep up with my rate just go as slow as you need to to keep that  crisp production at an even rate.
24
Puh-tuh puh-tuh puh-tuh puh-tuh puh-tuh  puh-tuh puh-tuh puh-tuh puh-tuh puh-tuh All right, now we'll put all three  together for "puh-tuh-kuh." Deep breath.
25
Puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh  puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh puh-tuh-kuh.
26
That's challenging. I ran  out of breath at the end.
27
Just for fun let's do it one more  time with the word "patty cake".
28
Deep breath.
29
Patty cake patty cake patty  cake patty cake patty cake patty cake patty cake patty cake  patty cake patty cake. Nice job.
30
Exercise 2. We're going to say some multisyllabic  words. I'll say the word then you repeat it.
31
If this feels easy you can try putting these  words into a sentence, like, I live in California.
32
It's true I really do.
33
Exercise 3. Tongue twisters are a  great way to practice your articulatory coordination and clarity. Your goal is  not speed, it's accuracy and clarity.
34
So go slow enough so that  your articulation is crisp.
35
I used to use this tongue twister as a  kid. Pretty sure my dad taught me it.
36
Here we go: Exercise 4 is your homework.
37
Take the strategies practiced today  and apply them to reading out loud.
38
You can read a book, a social media post,  the newspaper but read it aloud practicing over-articulation slowed speech and using  pauses in natural places while reading.
39
It might take some time to implement  the speech strategies during spontaneous conversation and you'll need consistent  practice to help these strategies become more natural and generalize to  your spontaneous conversation.
40
To track your progress record yourself  telling a story or reading out loud and then repeat that recording in a month  after you practice on a daily basis.
41
Let me know how these exercises worked  for you and be kind to yourself!

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
