It helps if you turn the radio up loud and sing to it for a while. Do this everyday and your voice will improve and become stronger. It worked for me, why dont you give it a try?
Hope that helped.

try this. if you want to like see what your voice sounds like not just like to you, then record yourself. it doesnt matter like how you do it, tape recoreder, video camara, call and leave yourself a message, it just really doesnt matter. you would be surprised about how different you sound to other ppl! then just listen to it and figure out your strenghs and weaknesses and work from there! i'm sure that there are a bunch of websites for online voice instructing or something that could help you to!
hope it helps!

olive oil will help, but dont EVER dreak milk or eat ice cream before you sing. it will coat your vocal cords and make you sound weird! sing alot, voice lessons will help, but if your school has a choir thats good too.

You can go to take lessons. Or, if you have a choir at your school, talk to your teacher and see if she can help you improve! =}

try not to drink carbonated stuff because your voice will get scratchy every now and then, other than that just practice, drinking warm fluids also helps sooth and calm your throat.

Hey, I've been a singer for six years so maybe I can help you. First of all you need to find your range. Sopranos sing high and altos sing low but they sing in a lower woman range. It's tempting to push voice, but you need to understand that if you do this it will damage your voice range. If you're a high soprano you can sing very high, but if you start singing lower than your range it's damaging to your voice. If your a low soprano try not to sing too high or too low. And altos try not to sing in a manly lower voice or in a high soprano voice. Practicing is the best way to get a better singing voice. It's very difficult without vocal lessons because the people who teach them are very professional and they will train your voice and work up to your goal. But if you have chorus at your school you should sign up. Not only is it free, but your teacher will instruct you on what you should know for singing. You'll be able to find your range that way too. If that is not an option, I think you should start warm ups everyday. If you practice every day and dedicate yourself towards singing, you will become better at it. So if you know what your range is keep practicing singing within that range. When people have access to vocal training they learn how to breathe right when singing. Breathing is very important when you sing, because you need to be sure you can control the amount of air your breathe to hold on to the pitch and the notes for a long period of time. For practice on this find songs that have long notes. When you realize how difficult it is to hold that note you'll have to breathe right. This will be hard for me to explain without hearing you sing and giving you examples. But what I can tell you is that you need to try not to breathe in the middle of a note. Try to get through a sentence or two without a noticable breathe. There are so many other sings for becoming a better singer. Tone quality is important. But if you're just singing for fun then just find your range and keep practicing and you'll be fine. If you want to make a career program as a singer you must learn every importance about singing. If money is the problem with vocal training there are free options out there. Anyways, I'm sure you'll become better as long as you practice. Much luck!
Love,
Mandee

what you do is just keep singing....sing regularly whenever you want and as you keep doing that you will get better and your voice strength will get stronger and also as you keep singing it increases your lung capacity in which you can sing longer and better without your voice cracking. I hope i helped ya.

Okay, lay on your back, and breath in through your stomach about 10 times, then sing using same technique, do NOT breathe through your chest, make sure everytime you breathe in you feel air on the back of your throat, it opens your sound up....hope this helps. <3ash.

Over a 2 year period, I've strengthened my voice simply by singing for 30 minutes a day. Don't stress it too hard, or you'll get calluses in your throat, and that'll hurt your voice. Sing scales, your favorite song by Avril, or just practice singing loud.
