Teachers Training
A teacher without a voice! Doesn’t bear thinking about, does it? But a voice isn’t something that any teacher can take for granted. It is after all your most important asset – one that has to be treasured and honed for the best effect. A teacher’s voice is often under tremendous stress. The constant strain can reduce its range, lead to hoarseness and sometimes even to total voice loss.

The voice-training workshop will help teachers explore ways to realize the maximum potential of their voice so as to use it to full effect in the classroom and thus contribute to their professional development.

Training begins with a voice scan - primarily an awareness exercise - which will be the starting point to bring about the desired change. This will be followed by a series of exercises to improve on breathing which is the bedrock of voice. Resonating chambers or cavities that amplify the voice will also be given an overhaul with specific exercises to help teachers improve on tone. This will be followed by useful and effective exercises to improve speech organs, the lips, tongue, hard palate and soft palate , so that they are able to respond optimally for clarity and better articulation.

The entire training capsule is formulated to specifically cater to the development of the teacher's voice. Aspects like pacing, volume, range, melody, rhythm, inflection, phrasing, etc., will also be covered. Specific voice sensitizing activities, exercises to work on sounds, words and sentences, activities without sound, toning, chanting activities and so on are also included in the workshop.  An entire hour is dedicated to activities focused on the care and maintenance of your voice.

Our aim is to help you the teacher to develop and maintain your most valuable asset... your voice.
