You use the same voice in speaking as you do in singing. Therefore, an understanding of healthy vocal technique can help tremendously if you need to use your speaking voice often.
When people think of speaking voice lessons, they often assume that is for public speaking. However, many people use their voices in their work, and anyone who does may benefit from speaking voice lessons. While in some respects these lessons mirror singing voice lessons, speaking in a healthy way has its own challenges.
My clients have included:
- teachers
- call center employees
- salespeople
- clergy
- corporate trainers
- presenters
If you sound fatigued at the end of the day, or you experience hoarseness, sore throat, wish to reduce your accent, or improve your diction, you might benefit from speaking voice lessons.
