Watch this if you speak too quietly (Student Transformation!)

This is Ali, one of my incredible students from my recent STAGE communication workshop. He's an excellent communicator, but one of his biggest challenges is his volume.
I'm sure many of you can relate to this - without volume, we lack clarity and belief in what we say. It's the lifeblood of our voice!
If you're ready to learn how to master your communication skills join me at my upcoming in-person workshop!

All my life, especially in class, I’ve struggled with speaking loud enough for people to hear me. And even when I think I’m almost screaming, people still tell me they can’t hear me. I guess I really do need to almost scream and I’ve just been afraid of sounding stupid because I tend to be shy, even if I’m confident in what I’m trying to say. So thank you so much for this. God bless you ❤

Hey guys, just letting you know that Vinh has a free Masterclass video currently available and it expires in 2 days. I would recommend watching it through at least 5 times to make sure that you’re picking up on his visual and vocal image techniques. Every second Vinh is doing something with his body that is technically brilliant, and you can learn so much from watching it. Wishing you all the best on your communication journey 🙌🙌

This is so real. To me, speaking louder feels like I'm screaming at people instead of talking at a "normal" volume. I'm working on it, because my voice is deeper and I feel like I spoke loud enough, but that mostly isn't the case

[@israelakhuetie]

Literally what I learned to do. I look up straight and then speak louder than normal, it makes you appear bolder and clearer in your speech.

[@PriyanshuBharadwa]

Makes sense. As a comedian, I've had similar experience over many years. You've got to get familiar with the loud voice. It's not loud to the Audience. It actually instills confidence in the audience and they look at you with more respect.

[@vibra7]

As a usual quite guy during presentations, last year I put my mind into trying to be louder in my next one, so in the first presentation I made sure my voice is loud and slow all the time, while sweating inside, at the end I just hoped I wasn't annoying or bothersome, after a few months was chatting with a classmate and they mentioned how my presentation impressed them and made them decide to try and do as good, and how they took me as a role model, I was in shook

This video really helped me a lot. It's so hard for me to speak in front of others, even in middle school I wrote on paper because I was afraid of how loud or quiet I would speak, or how my voice would sound to other people. Still scared, but I'm working my way to talking without feeling nervous or anxious to let anyone hear me :)

[@Fateslav]

Your voice has lower pitch. So if you want to be more recognisable, you need to speak in a higher pitch. Low pitches tend to mix with background noise

[@katembeka]

Bless this guy

[@spiritqueen11]

I love this video. I went to the dentist recently and the dental assistant was very soft spoken and low volume. I could barely understand her and she had an accent. Also there is a time and place for louder speaking such as public speaking events. If you are in a restaurant probably not the best place to be speaking loudly.

[@kathygreer2097]

People are always interrupting and talking over me because I’m rather soft spoken. It feels like I’m angry yelling when I try to talk louder. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@murph508508]

From a teacher this is a great point. If you aren't raising your voice then the students won't be able to understand you.

[@OfficialMoreBeta]

I have seen 2 clips from you and wow... Just wow... You earned yourself a new sub

[@Fateslav]

It’s not about loudness, it’s about pitch of one’s voice. If you have a bass or a bass-baritone timbre , your voice interferes with background noise. To overcome it, you need to increase the pitch of your voice. Getting louder is one of the ways. To know other ways you can learn singing

[@Maria.Mirabella]

This is oddly similar to how it works when starting with singing. If you're not used to hearing you "singing voice" - which is different from you "normal voice" - it'll sound wierd *to you*. However, if you practice singing you'll grow more comfortable with your "singing voice" - and eventually understand that your voice is great!

so I've tried talking louder and i end up wearing my voice out, throat hurting, etc. What are some speaking techniques to help with that?

[@skyhappy]

Drink a lot of water before

[@jayhuynh9201]

When you say talk louder, where was that particular place at? Were you at a conference, or just in front of a couple of ppl? I would suggest adjusting your tonality so you don't burn your voice out

[@farishesham9889]

The biggest tip that I found that helped me a lot with this was off of WikiHow, and this is what it said: "Make your voice bigger. Some people think of projecting their voice as pushing to make it louder, but that only causes strain to your vocal cords, exacerbating the problem. Instead, you want to make your voice larger.[10] When pushing your voice to project, you'll feel strain in your throat as you do after yelling. When making your voice bigger, you'll feel your chest doing the work.[11] Imagine that your throat and mouth are huge, as big as the room you're speaking in. This will help the muscles inside your throat pull away and relax as they do when you yawn, so a bigger voice can emerge." When I consciously do this, my voice instantly becomes louder. There is also the other tip of speaking and breathing from your diaphragm instead of your chest. You'll find many videos on how to do this, but the easiest way I found to speak from your diaphragm is to consciously contract and tense your stomach muscles when you speak like you do when you're exercising, and when you breathe in, you breathe lower into your stomach instead of into your chest. If you breathe correctly into your stomach, you'll feel your stomach rising when you inhale and not your chest.

[@lavatr8322]

Yeah correct Breathing is actually important

Hi Vinh, how does your presenting voice differ from your conversational voice? Do you intentionally add in the occasional "umms" and "ahhhs" to make yourself sound more natural and not too perfect? Would appreciate a reply 🙌🙌

[@marzoval9551]

Umms and ahhhs doesn't mean "natural". It's merely a habit. Just because most people do it, and it's largely harmless in conversation, doesn't mean you should force yourself to do it too. If people judge you for speaking too "perfect", that's their responsibility.

[@KomotsukiDZoro]

@@marzoval9551. You do realise that Vinh does umms and ahhhs all the time in conversations (not when presenting). Do you think he’s doing it by mistake? Ofc not 😂
