    Advice please!

    I'm doing a radio interview soon and would not have a strong speaking voice and I might come accross a uncertain or very nervous.

    Any suggestions or advice to have a stronger sounding voice for the interview.

    Just forget about it being a radio interview and think of it as a chat.

    Perpare Prepare Prepare.

    Take your time, dont rush or you will get flustered. Radio is very informal, just sit there and chat with the host, try and forget the audience. Keep a constant distance from the mike too, so that your sound levels will be ok... not to close and not too far, but its not like you have to sit stock still or anything.

    Practise and prepare, that will bring familiarity and that will in turn bring confidence.

    Exactly, know what you need to say. Bring a list with you as no one will know! Enjoy it and think of it as an informal chat.

    If you are confident about what you are going to say then that helps with nerves. I think practicing being interviewed is a good way...I think actors call it 'rehearsing':D so give that a try.
    Best of luck
