Definitely a psychological aspect. Nervousness, shyness, lack of confidence, all of the Above. I practice in my car as I'm driving. Singing, tongue twisters, random sentences. If people heard me they'd think I was nuts LOL. I also think I'm talking too loud a lot of the time so I think I'm trying to unnaturally subdue my voice. Really helpful video. Thank you
Im the kind of kid who can give the answer to questions during class but my sound is so feeble that teachers either don't hear me or think somebody else said the answer😬
@@scarlyt1017 lol same and same my voice is so calm like i say as loud as i can in the class but then the teacher be like 'LOUDER I CAN'T HEAR YOU' but i just can't, that's my limit of voice
As someone who is basically an only child, is introverted, and is shy, I have developed not exactly a quiet voice, but certainly not a loud one. Hopefully this video will help with that, as there are often situations where I need to speak louder so people can hear me
Haaa I finally realize what my problem is, English is my second language and I don't feel confident about my pronunciation. I want to practice and be better. Thank you.
Great lesson! I am actually Finnish though I live in Sweden. I hava suffered all my life having quiet voice. I do recognize that it is partly beacuse I am shy, but even not in the environment like with my family I talk with quiet voice. I was wondering why is that, I heard my voice loud enough for myself, but apparently it is not.
Our experience of our own voice is amplified because we are inside our resonating chamber. We feel and experience the voice in individual ways. Sometimes sending our voice out makes us uncomfortable physically and therefore back away. Finnish placement is really back in the throat but also culturally there is a respect for humbleness abs for keeping yourself to yourself!
Thank you for these tips and exercises. I'm going to try them to gain a more confident voice, as nearly everyone around me asks me to repeat myself, speak louder, or go "huh?" I was that kid that got told to shut up so much that I stopped talking, and I didn't feel safe to express myself (cry, disagree, etc). Now at 30, I'm trying to undo a lot of the learned survival habits that are not serving me anymore. Thank you!
Thank you so much for acknowledging that cultural and religious factors can affect our voice. I am so tried of people just assuming that those aren't even considerable factors. You acknowledged them AND addressed them like a "real" problem and gave us tips and encouragement on how to resolve them. Thank you so, so much.
Great video! Thank you for not suggesting that people “imagine“ their voices filling a room, or some other nonsense like that. Practical, useable advice. Well done and thanks again.
1. Mindful of air breathing in / Breathe 2. *Relaxation of muscle & body* = more resonate and vibration (even with emotional speech be mindful of this) 3. *Create Space* in your mouth & Stretch the body/ Open the body --> Bigger Instrument Tip: Yawning --- think of expand and *Open Up the Space* - especially useful when you want to create a more round, Warm voice 4. Articulation exercise 5. Mental Confidence = about yourself. Believe yourself and preparation - sometimes it's culture, shyness, or second language - Note: personality can reflect voice (introvert/shyness; extrovert/excitment) - less Self-conscious ~Practice anywhere~ * Practice to have your voice LOUD or BIG - can go somewhere crowded/loud; or an open space. Somewhere you're comfortable to be loud and creative
Darren, I don't know if you receive notifications for these older videos, but I just wanted to give a massive thank you for all that you do. I've only just stumbled upon your channel today, and already it's been giving me such motivation to become a better speaker. Thank you very much, from the bottom of my heart. If I ever somehow meet you in person, I'd love to thank you there as well and buy you a gift. Your passion for your work speaks volumes, and it makes me passionate in turn! Now to practice . . .
I sometimes feel like I'm shouting so loud I need to reduce the decibel level only to find I was barely getting through. People have told me my whole life they can hardly hear me... family, friends, girlfriends. Hopefully this is the new chapter i need for more confidence
wow I just heard your video and just started practicing with a deep voice and I already feel the difference!!! at the same time I don't' have to put extra effort (as I used to) to produce a loud voice. THANKS
Thank you very much! Especially the part of "holding yourself back" was really helpful. Both me and my father have a really loud, unrestrained, clean and non-hurting voice when we shout, but have very quiet voices when talking to others. Your video helped me to realize that because of that I do associate talking with (I'll call it that way, but probably it's wrong, but I basically mean "open mouth and create space in your body) open throat is considered impolite and shouty in normal conversations. I will soon talk outside in a loud area in a play, that's why I decided to watch this video. I will try to use what I've learned here :)
For someone who is shy I can never be heard and you just think oh they are just not interested in what i have too say but it clearly is a case of not understanding what I'm saying and loved the part about Articulation, great video and Helpful info
Going somewhere where no one knows you is very useful, I am a very shy type person but I started taking dance classes earlier and I have gotten more confident than before. Thank you for the helpful tips of speaking louder ❤🥰
That was really helpful. I have a confidence issue and now I know why it seems people can't hear me. Its bcos I speak words nervously. And don't always make myself clear. Now I'm going to work on these all aspects with confidence and hope I would have a more projectile voice!!
I wasn't expecting to cry watching this video but when you explained about confident I just can't help it Ive been told I'm too quiet and that I mumbled too many times it's gotten to a point where it costed me my jobs and opportunities I'm very frustated at myself for not being able to stand up for myself when I need to and express myself
Great video, love that you touched on the fact that some of us have been raised to be quiet. I am frequently unheard, even by my husband. But in my practice, massage therapy, it works. I look forward to practicing taking up more space with my voice. Funny feeling right now as it feels like im yelling...😂
PANGG YAO thank you! 😁 have you signed up to my newsletter? I’m giving away a weeks course on proper breathing for voice! Check it out... www.vocabilities.com 🙏
Because I am doing TH-cam videos I got a body of data that shows how different voices perform with different people. With my own voice people dip out very quick. But when a VA talks on similar content they get much better retention. I have asked my VA what is the problem and he told me it is energy. When I talk into the camera the way I talk to a friend I will have bad results. He said similar stuff like you. I need to be 10x of myself and amp up my voice and make it much more room filling in order to get through to the audience. Otherwise they get bored. So I am now training my voice to be a better speaker.
I LOVE YOU DARREN MCSTAY FOR YOUR ADVICE AND COACHING! Throughout my whole life people have often not heard me when I talk, even when I am making a significant concerted effort to speak as loudly as possible! Do you have any idea how depressing it is, as I am a very social person. My mother has been telling me for years that I should go for Elocution lessons. I have wanted help for a long time, but voice coaching is very expensive. I never looked for help on this issue on TH-cam before, and today I decided to see if there are any TH-cam videos that can help me. Yours was the first video that came up when I typed the word "enunciation" in the search box. I watched that 3 minute video and clicked the link to this video. I love your personality and your charisma, as well as how much I learned in just 10 minutes from you! I won't even be look for other TH-camrs on this subject. Your advice makes so much sense! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise! It is invaluable and life changing!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
I'v been following your videos quite sometime. Needed a clear and confidence voice. Never really got a chance to do that. Your video are helpful. Thanks. 😇😍
Thank you so much for these tips. I had a funny memory of me breaking into song during my first grade class and having my teacher shut me down so quick. It's so interesting how much I've internalized being hushed over the years.
This video feels like it was made for me. I am a german rapper and very proud of my lyrics, but when it comes to rapping them, i do not feel confident. The sound lacks power, loudness and dynamic, and to top it of i force myself to rap louder. I watched so many videos to find a way, helping me to improve myself. However, despite of hundreds of hours practising with my voice, I still have been faced with the same problem over and over again. But this video changed the game for me. Now i know what to do to sound naturally powerful and loud. Thank you so much!
Think I am gonna look at more of your videos over speaking loud... In my family environment in childhood it was prohibited to speak loudly so that people outside can't hear you and it made a gap in my voice that was talked in the video about mumbling or people can't hear you Thanks for this content
I take in air but I don’t really know how to use it. I would love to relax, but it’s hard to do on command. The situations where I really want to be heard are usually the most stressful times. Then again, I don’t even project that well when I’m relaxed. If the room is loud and I try to yell, it ruins what I’m trying to communicate. It can get really frustrating. I have friends that have voices that are easily heard across a loud crowded bar even with music playing. I get drowned out by background noise to the point of giving up. People say I’m quiet (as in shy) but it’s kind of pointless to speak in situations where you can’t really be heard. Using my voice more effectively could really be life changing. Your voice really is the way the world perceives us.
I'm a student who is taking up a course in teacher education, I felt like a failure because I have a low voice they can't hear my voice 😢 It hurts knowing that I am a future teacher but unable to speak clearly and fluently, such disappointment 😭. I'll be back and I'll use your tips.
I`m going to practice this... literally. every day friends, family, or just any person I am talking to is saying that I just speak. too quiet😅 Hopefully this is going to help and I don't get that many comments that they can`t understand me 😅
That’s the problem with TRYING to project. And this can’t be solved so easily. I might recommend you take a look at my 8-week course! It covers projection but only after you create new changes in the way you use your body!
If you do any type of fitness,you would know that most of these steps relate to it.It made not sound as good when you do it,but you can put 2 and 2 together
Im the sort of person who literally cant talk loudly. When i answer a question in class or read out my explanation, barely anyone can hear me although i try to talk as loudly as I possibly can. Its kinda sad cause this one kid in my class hates me for it and thinks i do it for attention and to be cool when its actually one of my insecurities and something i would change instantly if i could.
Hi, I am from Turkey. I got a bit accent, articulation and mispronunciation problem on some words. In addition to that, I have braces and high pitch voice. I am working at a news agency and trying to improve my voice and articulation and clarity. What are the steps you recommend that I should take? Thank you in advance for your time
I dont think he will make a video about it because this channel is purely dedicated to "VOICE". I am sure you can find other videos and articles about finland. All the best👍
Well I don’t give it much promo here to be fair so you weren’t to know, because it’s more for entertainment than education and I don’t want to lose you lovely lot. 😁
Hlo sir I m Doing IELTS and speaking is very difficult to me as i m not that loud and i feel so worried about it...your video helped me a bit . And now I think i can improve. I just need to figure it out...i think 😬😬
Hey, I just found your video. Awesome that you live in Finland. I’m a Finn and I live in Helsinki. When I saw the kitchen table behind you I thought that it must be Alvar Aalto. I’m practicing to speak louder as I need that i my work but I tend to speak from my throat if I raise my voice more than normally. I have blown my voice couple times very badly and it’s so annoying.
Can you do a video on how to improve our voice over a device (recorded sound). Often when I hear my voice recorded, it is awful. Is there a technique ?
My vocals are very high and pitched that it doesn't allow me to have a bigger voice. And people will constantly ask me to repeat myself because of how soft my voice is 🗿
i smoked a lot so now i’m just naturally quiet i quit a month ago and im trying to louden my self , getting asked to repeat my self is one of my biggest pepeves now bc it’s happend to much. ik what to do now
can you give me tips of how to get rid of my stutter when speaking. i understand i have to breath better, talkl from my diaphram and create space for breathing in my body., but i think i need more help to control my speaking blocks because i get excited some times
@@vocabilities Yes! I appreciate your discussion starting at #8:00. It gave me things to think about ways I might limit myself and how I might overcome this.
You were talking about your experience in Finland where people find loud people annoying. I have the opposite environment - I live in a hostile area where people are used to yelling at each other everywhere, in a shop, in a hospital, etc. so quite voice is considered to be a trait of a weak person. But all members of my family are shy, and, well, more educated and less aggressive, and all of us have this quite voice. So honestly I feel like I need to be louder but not because I truly want to, more like I need to seem tough around unfriendly people. My dream is to move to the calm country like Finland and just be myself
I really understand that… having grown up in London. There is strength in silence however and being comfortable with yourself no matter the environment will certainly bring you strength!
Hey, Thanks for your help but when I speak I feel like it's loud enough and everyone can listen but then they say speak louder we can't listen you and then I have stage fear too and I always get scolded for this reason. They will be like can't you speak lounder /don't you have a mouth / that mouth is for speaking and much more 😔
Hello. Can you please offer some advice for voice improvement for someone who has, for lack of a better word, "bunny-teeth" as well as a weak voice and articulation is a bit hard to do at the same time as trying to sound loud?
would you say that attending toastmasters is a good place to go for people who don't have confidence and speak quietly? i fear that people there give negative criticism and it'd make me even less confident
Dom I would not advise you to go there no! They won’t improve you’re voice and will give you superficial bad advice on how to be a robot. Take acting classes instead. They are kind and will nurture your self asteem and voice! 😁

Lol.😭😭We are same
Has it helped?
@@vocabilities not try yet. But why do I speak too slowly with friends in school or public..
@@vocabilities and my friends always said that I speak too slowly. Embarrassed me
Maybe you are just considerate about the choice of words you use?
1-take more air
2-relaxation
3-open mouth and create space in your body
4-articulation
Thanks 👍

By speaking with the right tonality, a descending one. Punctuate your speach as you would have punctuated the written version

😉 I feel your pain😂
I’m in the same situation, what’s weird is I feel I speak audibly , but the person next to me could be whispering and nobody tells them to speak up.
Same here! I was told i was too loud growing up and now I’m too quiet. That’s why I’m here now😀
I love the way you understand that natural flow, relaxation and non-restriction is key. It's actually about being our natural selves more.
Thank you so much for acknowledging that cultural and religious factors can affect our voice. I am so tried of people just assuming that those aren't even considerable factors. You acknowledged them AND addressed them like a "real" problem and gave us tips and encouragement on how to resolve them. Thank you so, so much.
You’re welcome. I’m glad that resonated with you. It’s so prevalent in many communities and culture so sight you be recognised!
I'm a soft speaking girl so I needed this! It feels like I have to yell a bit in order to be heard!
How it's going rn
27 year old with severe social anxiety, it's sad that I have to watch this.
You should be proud of yourself that despite this you are taking the initiative to improve. 👏👏
Great video! Thank you for not suggesting that people “imagine“ their voices filling a room, or some other nonsense like that. Practical, useable advice. Well done and thanks again.
1. Mindful of air breathing in / Breathe
2. *Relaxation of muscle & body* = more resonate and vibration (even with emotional speech be mindful of this)
3. *Create Space* in your mouth & Stretch the body/ Open the body --> Bigger Instrument
Tip: Yawning --- think of expand and *Open Up the Space*
- especially useful when you want to create a more round, Warm voice
4. Articulation exercise
5. Mental Confidence = about yourself. Believe yourself and preparation

Can you make a video about living in Finland? I’ve had thoughts about emigrating from the UK and I’m intrigued about what it’s like 😬
I dont think he will make a video about it because this channel is purely dedicated to "VOICE". I am sure you can find other videos and articles about finland. All the best👍
George Bacon akready made one on my other channel mate th-cam.com/video/7_3H-LuZ-MM/w-d-xo.html
Haider Amin you’re right not for this channel! But I did so happen to have made one last year anyway. 🙂
@@vocabilities oh! You have a 2nd channel? My bad. I didnt know that
Well I don’t give it much promo here to be fair so you weren’t to know, because it’s more for entertainment than education and I don’t want to lose you lovely lot. 😁
i need this
Thank you for the video.
i cant thank you enough♥️🙏🙏
Hlo sir I m Doing IELTS and speaking is very difficult to me as i m not that loud and i feel so worried about it...your video helped me a bit . And now I think i can improve. I just need to figure it out...i think 😬😬
You need to keep practicing consistently!
Very very interesting and helpful!!
Hey, I just found your video. Awesome that you live in Finland. I’m a Finn and I live in Helsinki. When I saw the kitchen table behind you I thought that it must be Alvar Aalto.
I’m practicing to speak louder as I need that i my work but I tend to speak from my throat if I raise my voice more than normally. I have blown my voice couple times very badly and it’s so annoying.
Yes the air placement in the Finnish accent is very stuck in the throat. Similar to Glaswegian actually. I may be able to help.
I’m interested. Tell me more
thank you!
“What sorry I didn’t hear” “wait you actually talk” “why are you so quiet”
Can you do a video on how to improve our voice over a device (recorded sound). Often when I hear my voice recorded, it is awful. Is there a technique ?
Might just be the recording. But I already made a video on that topic…

@@vocabilities I will see this , thank you for finding time to reply to my query 😊
Let me know if it helps!
Thank you so much!
You’re welcome

Thank you for this
Barizylife you’re welcome
I felt seen. Tysm for this video
My vocals are very high and pitched that it doesn't allow me to have a bigger voice. And people will constantly ask me to repeat myself because of how soft my voice is 🗿
I am a russian and when i speak they dont hear me on discord but outside.
i smoked a lot so now i’m just naturally quiet i quit a month ago and im trying to louden my self , getting asked to repeat my self is one of my biggest pepeves now bc it’s happend to much. ik what to do now
can you give me tips of how to get rid of my stutter when speaking. i understand i have to breath better, talkl from my diaphram and create space for breathing in my body., but i think i need more help to control my speaking blocks because i get excited some times
Use your articulators super light
compassion here is very nice
It should be right?
@@vocabilities Yes! I appreciate your discussion starting at #8:00. It gave me things to think about ways I might limit myself and how I might overcome this.
That’s wonderful! I wish you all power to your endeavour!!! 💪💪💪
You were talking about your experience in Finland where people find loud people annoying. I have the opposite environment - I live in a hostile area where people are used to yelling at each other everywhere, in a shop, in a hospital, etc. so quite voice is considered to be a trait of a weak person. But all members of my family are shy, and, well, more educated and less aggressive, and all of us have this quite voice. So honestly I feel like I need to be louder but not because I truly want to, more like I need to seem tough around unfriendly people. My dream is to move to the calm country like Finland and just be myself
I really understand that… having grown up in London. There is strength in silence however and being comfortable with yourself no matter the environment will certainly bring you strength!
Hey, Thanks for your help but when I speak I feel like it's loud enough and everyone can listen but then they say speak louder we can't listen you and then I have stage fear too and I always get scolded for this reason. They will be like can't you speak lounder /don't you have a mouth / that mouth is for speaking and much more 😔
this is for my vocal motivation..
I have problem with speaking loud and I just got a job as a waitress and I hope this video help
You’ll do great.
Hello. Can you please offer some advice for voice improvement for someone who has, for lack of a better word, "bunny-teeth" as well as a weak voice and articulation is a bit hard to do at the same time as trying to sound loud?
Teeth like Freddy Mercury for example?
@@vocabilities Yes. Precisely correct, actually.
thank you man
Love your videos buddy
Ilikecookies thank you mate! 👍🙏😊😉😁
Great video mate
There should be a video of people that should improve their ears
would you say that attending toastmasters is a good place to go for people who don't have confidence and speak quietly?
i fear that people there give negative criticism and it'd make me even less confident
Dom I would not advise you to go there no! They won’t improve you’re voice and will give you superficial bad advice on how to be a robot. Take acting classes instead. They are kind and will nurture your self asteem and voice! 😁
Improve Your Voice ok thanks 🙂
I’m literally making me do all this stuff that will help me in the future only for my crush lmao. I wouldn’t have cared enough to do it before
I have too sweet voice and nobody takes me serious when I am really serious.
And yawning is my favourite exercise now onwards 👍
Good start yes!
Scrolled halfway down his head and thought this was a new Seth Everman video
