hello. I'm from India. well, here's the thing. my family, friends and even my boyfriend thinks that my voice sucks on phone. to see if there's any truth in it, i recorded my voice on my cellphone and it sounded sooooo bad.
i'm not into singing and stuff. so i dont think i need classes or something. but do tell me if they'll help or not.
i'm becoming self-conscious because of this and these days, i've even stopped talking to my boyfriend and friends. i just text them.
I'm not sure if speech therapy would help since it's just your voice over the phone rather than your voice in real life but you can try it and see if it does anything for you. [ lightoftruth's advice column | Ask lightoftruth A Question ]

What I wonder is what your voice sounds like in person. Some people have a naselly voice like they are speaking through their nose. Some men and women have much higher pitched voices making females sound like children and men sound like females. Once a person has reached adult hood, the shape of their voice box has been set in stone...that is why people whose first language is not English have a hard time being understood by english speaking people and can try to americanize their speech sound but there will always be a hint of sound that is different. A speech therapist will work with a person to help pronounce more clearly and properly in their own language. that is a place to start if you are so concerned. Personally I wouldnt worry about it.
