    Voice Pro Teaches You To Speak Like a Leader with Complete Confidence & Diction to Command Respect.

    As a speaker, you want to look and SOUND like a STAR! That means improving your voice projection, resonance, enunciation, pitch, tone, pace and overall presentation techniques. It also means conquering your fear of speaking online, on stage or at a podium in front of large audiences. All of this is covered extensively in your spoken word lessons. My students have nicknamed me the "Doctor of Speech" because I can quickly diagnose your speech problems during your very first lesson. Then the work begins. My proven, live, teaching methods will train your voice to sound richer, fuller, and more audience-friendly in just a few sessions. We will also work to eliminate other specific voice or speech problems you may be experiencing. These spoken word classes are also designed to be flexible. The student participates in deciding what topics and areas are studied. That may include role-playing exercises, online presentation and speech critiques, job interview preparation, career coaching, and more. This is YOUR course. You help to decide how your lessons unfold. Utilizing my many years of assisting speech students, I will offer you individualized lessons specifically targeted to your personal concerns. My experience as a broadcaster, keynote speaker, and professor, gives me the background to immediately offer critical tips to enhance your speaking performance. Your speaking voice needs a checkup with the Doctor of Speech… the Doctor is in!

    Bill is a fantastic teacher. He was able to pinpoint some key bad habits that were/are affecting my speaking competence. After one lesson, I was already sounding better!
