the use of the voice
The use of the voice in the management of teaching consist in considering some major factors, such as.
•Audibility:
Teachers must be sure that the students to the back of the classroom can hear them just as well as those at the front.
•Variety:
It is important for teachers to vary the quality of their voices – and the volume they speak at, depending on the type of lesson or activity that they are giving.
•Conservation:
Teachers have to take great care of their voices
•It is important that they breathe correctly.
•They should also vary their voices throughout the day.
•They should take into consideration the environment and the acoustics
Tips for using the voice
•Too make your voice louder instead of pushing from the throat, use good breath support and never raise the pitch.
•Develop an interesting tonal range.
•Use a slightly harder tone
•Open your mouth wide enough to be heard.
•Remember your role model speaker.
Tips for conserving the voice:
•Drink room temperature water as often as you can to keep your voice organ hydrated. .
•Stand up straight and look forward so that you don't have to strain the voice from an awkward position
•Rest your voice whenever possible - for instance use non-verbal signs to pupils wherever you can to reduce the use of your voice.
•Vary the speed and tone of your speech

Teachers: Take Care of Your Voice
Some 7.5 million people, including many teachers, have diseases or disorders of the voice.It's a lesson worth learning: Teachers who try to do the best possible job for their students need to take care and preserve what may be their most valuable teaching asset--their voice.
Teachers are among those professionals who make great demands on their voices; they talk all day long in the classroom and have to project loud enough so that all their students can hear them clearly. Unfortunately, this stress on the voice can lead to health problems.
Some 7.5 million people have diseases or disorders of the voice, reports the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), which supports research into the nature, causes, diagnosis, and prevention of voice disorders. In addition to overuse of the vocal cords, other causes of voice problems include upper respiratory infections, vocal nodules or other growths, laryngeal cancer, and more. Fortunately, most of these disorders can be successfully treated or avoided. Whether you're a teacher or not, try taking the following quiz:
Has your voice become hoarse or raspy?
Have you lost your ability to hit some high notes when singing?
Does your voice suddenly sound deeper?
Does your throat often feel raw, achy, or strained?
Has it become an effort to talk?
Do you find yourself repeatedly clearing your throat?
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, you may be experiencing a voice problem and should consult an otolaryngologist, the physician and surgeon who specializes in ear, nose, and throat disorders. He or she can determine the underlying cause of your voice problem.
You may also need to see a speech-language pathologist. He or she can help you with improving the use of your voice and avoiding vocal abuse. A speech-language pathologist can provide a good education on the healthy use of the voice and instruction in proper voice techniques. Teachers, for example, may want to use a lightweight microphone and an amplifier-speaker system to reduce vocal strain.
The result: Healthier teachers who can be better instructors for our nation's students. To learn more about voice disorders, visit www.nidcd.nih.gov/health/voice/index.asp, or call toll-free 1-800-241-1044.

View about teaching EFL
Hello guys,
I am Mary Ann Guy, I am in 8 semester student at the IPC. I am a Trinidadian born who is living in Venezuela, I'm married with two kids and hoping and working very hard to graduate next year August.
I would like to share my views on what I think about teaching Efl. Teaching EFL is very important, and can be some times difficult. English is now a global language and people need English for many reasons, some for leisure, others for work purpose, they may also learn it out of sheer curiosity to learn about other people and some may learn it for obligation.
What ever the reason, when the four skills of English are taught, the learners are given an insite to the culture of those countries that speak the language, also the correct ways in which they can communicate with them. This enables them to improve socially, culturally and sometimes economically.
Teaching becomes difficult because the learners are not always exposed to the languages out side of the classroom, and when they are obligated they need to be motivated twice as much as the ESL students.
