Talk louder...
I guess this is in a way a relationship between me and my teachers?
Ahh, I'm not sure.
Anyway,
What are some things I could do to practice speaking louder in class? When I answer a question, I answer it quietly or if I have to read out loud I read it quietly and fast.
So what are some ways I could practice getting used to talking louder?
Thanks!

When your teacher calls on you, don't panic. Just take a deep breath ( not an overdramatic one of course ) and answer the question. The reason you're probably answering it quietly is because you are unsure of the answer or you are worried people will make fun of you. Hey, the teacher had to call on someone right? Just go with it. If you get it wrong, so what (I have a habit of my face turning red, but I just laugh it up or bury my face in my book to hide it); dont' let that experience ruin your future ones.
You can also practice reading a book in your room. Take any random novel, preferably one you haven't read in a while or is new, and read a page to yourself slowly and loudly. Once you get into the habit, it will come back to you in class.
This will take some mustering of courage, but you can do it. Just tell yourself, "BE loud, BE clear" and you'll do fine.

hey
participate in class, that's ALL there is you can do. whenever a teacher wants you to answer a question, just project your voice so that everyone around you can hear you. don't talk to the teacher; talk to the class. and take hold of every single opportunity you can to participate in class!
take a public speaking course or join your school forensics team (both of those REALLY REALLY help with self confidence and enunciation!)
be passionate and enthusiastic about which you are reading, even if it's boring as hell!
it is the speaker who grasps the attention of the audience, not the material itself.
