"Because I lacked confidence in speaking to others they often had difficulty understanding me, especially on the phone. At Voice Culture, I worked on my pronunciation and on expressing myself more clearly. I now have a lot more confidence, and people are not asking me to repeat myself."

Rabeye Siddique, Forman Building

"Before getting into a Voice Culture programme, I had to repeat myself in order for my colleagues to understand me. We focused on accent modification, pronunciation, my job specific vocabulary and my situation. Now I have more confidence in speaking to my colleagues, and I find I'm understood first time." 

Sammie Yilin Jia, Biometrician, NZ Plant & Food Research.

"My company wanted me to improve my communication skills so that staff could more readily understand me. The accent modification training has given me greater clarity, ability to correct myself and a feeling of confidence when speaking with colleagues individually and in meetings."

Vivian Song, HR Metrics and Planning Analyst, Fonterra.
