Sandra Turns Tech Professionals into Great Communicators!

 I just shot a video.  This is the best I've ever heard myself sound. I did a few of your exercises just before the shoot,
and then really focused on keeping it slow,supporting with breath, and varying the tonality of my sentence endings.
I'm very proud of the progress, and it is thanks to your coaching"!

conversational techniques, used in the sessions is a great idea. Most of our communication is on phone these days,
so if one learns to speak well on the phone, one could speak well anywhere."

Rajesh Venkataraman, IT professional

 What tech pros are saying.....

microsoft"My co-workers and myself have seen improvements on my spoken English in both daily conversations and presentations. Your program was very stretching and a wonderful experience. You have taught me how to use project management skills to reduce my accent and increase my voice power. I will continue to apply the skills: especially not trailing words, slowing down and enunciating all consonants, and ‘R’ sounds. I would definitely recommend you to others." -Guang-an Wu, Principal Engineering Manager, Microsoft Visual Studio team

Immediately after the first class I noticed a dfference in how I controlled my voice and pitch while conducting my meetings. The focused breathing and specifically talking on the exhale was an eye opener. I am looking forward to the next lesson!
