SUGESTIONS TO IMPROVE SPEECH •Be aware of your breathing. Breathe in fully before you speak so you do not run out of air before you finish.

•Rate of speech: keep it slow and even

•Force your lips and jaw to work hard as you pronounce words

•Establish a topic before beginning a conversation

•Concentrate on finishing the sound of each word before starting the next

•Reduce background noise: Turn down the TV or radio if you have something to say.

•Have your family and friends tell you when your voice drops.

•Try your best to talk for yourself, even if it takes longer. Others might want to talk for you but try on your own.

•On the phone:hold your head up straight and speak directly into the mouthpiece. Let your voice warm up by practicing a few words aloud.
