This is for moulding verbal techniqies and practicing the art of speech so that you can hear yourself played back and while your speakers or on.
all you need is a computer microphone
open accesories, go to entertainment and open sound recorder, then test your microphone or download a program called audacity! go to volume control, hit options then properties and be sure that microphone is ticked.
now you are ready to go ...
take a favourite book or write down your favourite television quotes and start getting to know yourself properly. It will boost your social confidence because you know how you sound and you'll get used to it ... practice toning your voice and reacting to pictures or text on the screen until you forget the mic is on, it can be when nobody is around or with people still in the house, just give it a go! Listen to yourself and work on the areas that need attention. If you can skype with friends then you're already making progress but its a great way for those who are really struggling.
it wont solve self consciousness but its something to work with and i hope it helps ....
