To be able to SPEAK WELL is VERY important to succeed in your personal life, your school life and your professional life. The first impression you have on people you meet is extremely important and much of this has to do with how you speak. Your vocal pitch and expressiveness as well as the clarity of your voice. In many cases this can be more important then what you actually SAY. Practice speaking from your stomach (diaphragm) and changing the pitch (inflection) of your natural voice.
