Hi guys for those of you that are looking for permanent change, take a look at the 8 week course here: - vocabilities.teachable.com/p/improve-your-voice
Dear Darren, I've just visited your online courses, honestly speaking this is a bit expansive for me. Do you have your courses in Udemy? I can't find a course similar to yours. You course is really amazing just watching you from youtube, perhaps you should also consider Udemy online learning. I really need to enhance my speaking voice and become more articulate. This is one area which I am really struggling with, ever since I got migraine.
I will never post content on Udemy. Why don’t you send me an email? Darren@vocabilities.com
Mr. Mcstay, I was born with a narrow airway, do you have any videos for people with a narrow airway; I thought my airway would expand as I got older, but now I am not so sure?
THIS is what they should be teaching in schools and colleges. Forget pointless assignments and being tested on things you'll never actually learn.. after watching a few of your videos and practicing all the exercises and can slowly hear progress and it's amazing to have videos such as these to our disposal . Thank you!
I wish I had this at primary school.....I wouldn't have picked up on these bad habits and pronunciation problems
Absolutely, I believe that proper speaking and Excel are two things that should definitely be part of our curriculum
It's all about 💸
My FBI agent is probably laughing his ass off.
Might have saved your life, lol 😂
I was performing the facial stretches and I was pulled over for a sobriety check.
for real ?
Almost dislocated my jaw doing the stretches 😂
kleash try not to push further than Is possible. Just within your range. 😉
oh my god same, my jaw made so many weird crunchy noises
Go gently!
Sounds like to me you almost did it right.
Sounds worrying to me 😬
So interesting! Didn’t realise there were so many factors that go into speaking
There are! Couldn't this at-least be easy? haha
there aren't
i have autism and i hope this helps me learn how to communicate effectively
Me too!
Wow I love the exercise..I always held myself back as I didn't want to sound dumb or silly .. my wrong thinking pattern always made me gold backmyself amd led me to self sabotaging and loose my self esteem completely .. thank you for this valuable video ..this will really help me communicate and build a better relationship with myself ..and just simply be comfortable with who I am
I had problems with pronunciation and speaking English since its not my native language. But watching your videos really helps a lot and also to Rebecca Lindquist. I've been watching her videos too
Wander Paul thank you for saying so! 🙏💪🏻👏
Wander Paul are you still watching?
@@ImproveYourVoice Ive been watching some of your vidoes since were under enhanced community quarantine here in Philippines. It helps me a lot especially in my field of duty. Ive been working in a BPO for 2 years, believe me, I improved a lot since english is not my primary language. But I look funny in the mirror when I do the articulation exercises and stretching. Hahaha. Buongiorno.
I have never relaxed my jaw there -- this is amazing! Thank you for the great tips!
Milo & Stefanie Do FL great! Takes time but gradual works best right!
Even though I have a stammer, this somewhat relaxes me upto some extent
Thanks a lot!
Vishwas Shankar that’s great! Did you get any value from my other content?
@@ImproveYourVoice yes. I watched the 20 min warm up video and the breath exercise videos you posted. I have been doind this for like 2 weeks or so, and sure I have'nt experienced huge spiking improvement but it's better than it was
@@ImproveYourVoice thanks again!
This is the BEST channel on the topic by far.
2013Electronics&Computers boom! 🙏 what’s your favourite vid?
I too recommend the same
I talk for a living here on TH-cam sometimes recording for 2 or 3 hours a day. I really need this as I have a strong accent, so I really need to articulate as I speak. Thank you.
You might also do well with the full body warm ups!
1:53 is me at 3 am every satuday
James Pearce ha ha 😂
Imagine they ask you a question in class and you start doing faces like that😂
Hello Darren. I have being following your work for a couple of weeks now and have been doing the exercises. They are very good! I am interested in joining the 8-week course, but, I would love to see some testimonials first. For example, it would be great if you could set a video of someone before and after your course, so we could see the results!
Sounds like a good idea?
Maybe you could be that someone?
@@ImproveYourVoice I sent you a message to your LinkedIn.
@@ImproveYourVoice ohhhh that was great reply
"The human torch was denied a bank loan." "The Arsonist had oddly shaped feet." Warm ups done.
Love this! Anchor man right?
@@ImproveYourVoice You got it.
Misheru GP top flick!
A bonus tip at the end! You’re too kind.
1:39 had me rolling even though it's just an exercise
I appreciate your great videos, Darren. I've seen a number of your videos; they are strong and beneficial. So I want to practice and see what happens. God's blessings are upon you.
I accidentally watched at X2 speed and Ur expressions are hilarious!!
Eliza Deen I’m getting loads of comments like this! Maybe I should go into comedy! 😁
Hey I'm 18 and I couldn't speak to I was 8 yrs old and had a stutter since age 10, and there on I struggled to articulate my words. Like make a sentence and use necessary words and make it what I was thinking-into a nice clear comprehendable long sentence.
im extremely excited to try these , been having alot of trouble at skl and talking with friends its extremely hard for me to talk clearly and be understandable🙂really takes a toll on my self confidence
6:40 summary
Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you hundred times. I love your exercises. Shokran, Merci Beaucoup, Teshekur, Grazia, etc.
I was chewing gum as he said it "stop it", so off to the trash the gum goes! LOL
Thank you so much for this, kind sir. I can notice my improvement after 1 exercise. 👍👍👍
another thing to practice while waiting for the bus
GREAT Video! gonna see what the others say in the comments. AND WOW, another TH-camr that replies to comments.
Gabriel DeRapp of course. Do others not reply?
@@ImproveYourVoice Not very many and most of the time they do not.
Gabriel DeRapp are you quite an active user then?
excellence in delivering information.
Thank you very much.
Thanks this really helped, I’ve been noticing that I don’t articulate well when talking and I tend to drag my words. This is really helping.
Edit: it’s because I speak 3 different languages with all completely different accents (so I don’t just sound like an American trying to speak another language) and so that kinda ruins my articulation
1:08 this is such fun to watch on mute and really helpful. Will definitely use these tips before recording my very first full length youtube tutorial ))
Thanks so much for this. Very much needed. I'v been having issues in my life to get rid of my annoying tone😉need to correct it somehow. I'd like to know why my tone doesn't clear when i speak, like even when speak louder people would say, 'we cannot hearyou properly' . Could you help to correct this.
Sherry Fernando I’m not sure it’s your tone that hinders others from understanding you. Can you tell me more?
Improve Your Voice like she’s not speaking loud , I get the same thing is there anyway I can talk louder but sound better, I feel like I talk normal but it’s low and when I talk loud it seems to obviousl
iii Eazy iii have you tried filming yourself speaking and watching it back?
iii Eazy iii build up more breath support to help you project without pushing!
Thanks for reminding about this. Have you done any lessons with regards to this.
Your channel is just what I need
Boom! Let me know what videos you’re looking for and Ill see if I can help!
Thanks
Really enjoyed this video - fantastic exercises to do! Will be recommending this to my viewers.
Hi Darren thank you very much for your videos. I have benefited immensely
Will it be possible for you to make a video on the butterfly technique for lateral lisp.
Thank you very much
trigger_986 I shall look into it
I'm finding these really useful. Thank you for sharing!
Omg I can't stop laughing 😂😂
It's like a laughing therapy . Thank u so much
Having fun is a good method don't you think?
Would this improve the pitch of voice? a bit louder clear or confidence..? Thank you for all this information.
Lovely! The dragon has made my day!:-)
Can you give a more detailed explanation to why chewing gum is bad for your articulation?
Over Tightens the jaw muscles
Great video!
Kotsos541 why thank you!
it's a superb exercise...😎🙏🤝
hardik godhani 🙏🙏🙏
hardik godhani do you still practice?
yes...i do...👍
Great how’s it going?
Hello, thank you for your efforts in these videos, well, i am a native speaker of english and my professors always keep saying to me "you have to work on your articulation", what does this mean exactly and how i can overcome it? Thank you in advance
It means you need to put your thoughts into better words!
Learn English with Ìkràm clarity of diction! Take your time to pronounce words more completely and accurately!
Sincerely Maria it’s not always the words as much as the way you use them! 😉
Thank u
Rohan Bhora no no thank YOU!
Thank you Nice work!
Thanks 🙏
Hello Darren,
what to do if i hear clicks in my jaw when i stretch wide open?
Eli Graf both sides or just one?
@@ImproveYourVoice only right side
Eli Graf have you had any trauma to your jaw? There is a possibility of TMJ so maybe speak with an osteopath or doctor!
We should do this as a matter of course every morning really, shouldn't we?
Superb techiques
Champion loving these free lessons, also really keen to do your course but is it possible to pay monthly?
Thanks!
Sir u r osm love from Pakistan

Satimon Taban totally up to you! The more you practice the better it’ll get!
a show guys very good
I’m confused but thank you 🙏
Thank you for spending time on this whole series very helpful indeed
No...
i need articulation tips that doesn't require any worm up and doing silly stuff.
i want to improve my articulation just like improving my grammar, something to be imprinted in my brain and i can use it whenever i want without physical activity.
Without physical activity your articulation is merely thought!
How does this technique helps in someone who stutters?
Did I say that? It helps with dexterity. It’s for articulation!
hello, I'm a little bit stutter and could I ask you some personal questions about it?
乌格特木勒 go for it. You can email darren@vocabilities.com
Because I'm not native English speaker , what's the difference when we say to someone : Speak better and articulate better ?
Ala Eddine Menai they both mean the same thing. Articulate is just a smarter way of saying it
Ala Eddine Menai articulation is the clarity, speaking better is subjective. What do they mean I wonder?🤔
I really wish I actually had 30 minutes a day to do all the necessary stretches😞
wake up earlier
OMG it realy works
I have a stuttering problem so its harder for me to articulate
Overbite also causes problems
Not sure if this is a prank, but it's working.
My fist day at acting school, I thought I’d walked into a very special needs group. Sone of the actions and sounds were off the chart crazy. If Someone were to jump out with a camera Wouldn’t have been surprised. 😁
Thanks Darren!!👍
No worries💪🏻
Play it on x2 soeed
I know it’s not funny but exercising my face was fun and funny 😂😂
Ha ha, my take away from this video is that we should just yawn.
Is anyone just unable to do this exercise at 5:24 , because I just sound completely unintelligible. If I do it with my pinky finger its easier.
What’s the poem
Justin Shattuck eh
Justin Shattuck ‘Oh what a to do to die today’
5:25
What a to-do to die today, at a minute or two to two;
a thing distinctly hard to say, but harder still to do.
We'll beat a tattoo, at twenty to two
a rat-tat-tat- tat-tat-tat- tat-tat-tattoo
and the dragon will come when he hears the drum
at a minute or two to two today, at a minute or two to two.
wait, are u kiddin me, i chew a gum like every two hours, and for last 7 years i have problems with articulation, do u really thing there is a conection? 😳
A very wise Vocal coach game me this advice when I used to mumble and I’m now a voice coach myself! Go figure 😎
Kodak black need that right now
When i speak normally in my pov i sound great but for others i sound like a robot/stiff
I wonder how you feel when you watch yourself in this video making faces😂
Check out my new single - th-cam.com/video/D0lkHwOBnM0/w-d-xo.html
1. Warm up muscles
moving my faces to any direction
If you fear that you'll bite into your finger you can keep a pencil between your teeth.
Or invest in a Morrison Bone prop!
*_Gonna be honest, Morgan Freeman and Alan Rickman brought me here!_*
5:26
Thanks sir
Mumble rappers have left the chat
Ha haa haaaaa
My voice tends to catch a bit
Catch?
@@ImproveYourVoice yeah likr id start to say a line but then my voice kinda cracks a bit its annoying. Probably cause I have family roommates so im too nurvouse to do voice impressions too loud
Nerves can do that, it’s true! Does it happen when you’re on your own?
@@ImproveYourVoice sometimes i get shaky when i do a video and then that happens. I have a channel ive done a few scene impressions Im fairly proud of but there are moments where it cracks a bit i also tend to go too fast ehen i do a scene and get out of breath. That might be part of the problem
you look like walter white from breaking bad when you show your teeth
UNESS Ha ha ha😁
Yup and i just finished that series few days ago..its awesome🔥🔥
💗
If you did all that while you are talking to someone, they would run away.
This is funny 🤣
Voldemort is back!
Junaid Shaikh shall I review his voice?
Turn off sound and re-watch this video 😂
My face and jaw are fine but for some reason my tongue keeps tripping over itself
He's crushing his parotid glands
Who me?
@@ImproveYourVoice yup😂go easy on them, Sir
That would be an inch further back would it not?
@@ImproveYourVoice some of it would, some is still there though
Been doing this for over twelve years at times of need and not only am I pretty dexterous vocally but saliva production is tip top! That said, it’s an interesting point and I shall consult my doctor friends to ensure the validity of this widely recognised technique. Thank you for bringing it to my attention!
Should I be using my tongue any special way lol?
That all depends doesn’t it!?
@@ImproveYourVoice 😂😂😂😂
I find his exercises risky, one might damage her mouth really bad
Which one?
@@ImproveYourVoice Those ones where people are are required to stretch wide. People at their home might do it really hard, which might lead to sprain or other issues. People need to be provided with the best practices (or things they shouldn't do) while doing such exercises.
Syed Ahmed the truth is no one will ever open their mouth wider than they do when they yawn And I do tell people to stay within comfort zone. This is TH-cam and advice that works. The info shared is nothing new and widely spread in classes across the globe. Only as dangerous if the person watching isn’t very bright 😉
