Great Practical Learning

Thank you. Wish everyone a great hearing and that this book shall help take your voice to the next level.

An awesome listen

Excellent self improvement material for native and non-native speakers of English. Second best only to having one-on-one private sessions with Dr. Fleming!

Good, but a lot of filler

It seems that the publisher pushed for this to be a certain minimum length. The first four and half chapters are filled with repetition and often seemed like an info-mercial - filled with teasers about what they were going to tell you later, but very little real insight. These chapters could have easily been condensed into one introduction section, maybe 15 minutes max.

Beginning near the end of Chapter 5, the content became useful and I gained more insight than I had on a different voice training cd I listened to years ago.

informative and practical

English is my 2nd language, I bought this book because I realized my voice and spoken English had prevented me from pursuing many oppertunities. This book give me much-needed information on how to improve voice clarity, projection, intonation, smoothness and how to deal with voice difficulties. After only a few weeks, now I feel that people, who are in communication with me, are far less likely to ask me to repeat myself or stare at me blankly.

Change Is Possible

Fantastic.. Helped me change my voice. Easy to follow and to reference for specific issues.
