Talking Voice works extensively in schools, offering CPD for teachers, and in teacher training organisations. Director, Janet Shell, offers guidance on looking after the teaching voice through a long career, and helps teachers improve their confidence and communication through improved voice use and presence.
A speaker will often show signs of nerves through their voice. It might falter, or the pace of the speech becomes rushed. Janet brings her experience of vocal performance to help nervous presenters prepare speeches and to give the impression of confidence during public presentations.
Talking Voice was set up by its director, Janet Shell, to provide voice coaching and communication skills to teachers and public speakers.

It is with great sadness that Talking Voice learnt of the deaths of Peter Sissons who was a great fan of Janet's work, and Stephen Crook who was a singer and composer and created the background music for the Talking Voice CD. Our thoughts remain with both families and friends.
