Correct improvements: by avoiding filler words, by speaking slower, and by making eye contact.
Why: the sentence is full of filler (“like,” “um,” “you know,” “ah”) which weakens authority — pausing instead of using fillers helps. Slowing down reduces fillers and increases clarity. Making eye contact improves audience engagement. Avoiding slang isn’t really applicable here — the phrasing is informal, but not slang.
