Edward Olive has commonly observed that a student may have a "good voice" in their own native language, but when faced with a foreign language their voice is weakened, blocked or in different ways worsened. Also, any slight defect a student has in their own language will be greatly magnified when speaking in a foreign language. The intent of this course is to enhance and improve the student's voice in English to better convey a corporate presence and professional message in the international business world. The desire is to have students competing in the same business field as English-speakers and with the same vocal power and voice quality as native executives - a level playing field for non-native corporate professionals.
