Frequently Asked Questions
How long will it take to improve my voice?
For some, results are immediate. For others It can take time and at first seem like nothing is happening. Voice work is gradual and you should consider it a process in which you make small, gentle consistent chances which will over time become something greater. Slowly but surely is how you create permanent and lasting results.
How long do I have access to the courses in this bundle?
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
How will this improve my confidence?
If you recognise you feel nervous about speaking, it’s likely that you tend to avoid doing it as much. This lack of practice further disables your ability to do so effectively, creating a negative feedback loop. Making physical changes to your instrument (body) and practicing using our voice more will have an unconscious positive influence over how you feel using your voice. The more you practice, the more empowered you will become. Confidence is a byproduct of practice and consistency.
Which course should I start first?
What do you want to achieve? The foundational work that the 8-week course has on offer is fundamental for so many reasons and sets a secure base for other work to follow. If you’re unsure then this is the best place to start as you will gain more physical awareness of your voice, body and breath.

Darren McStay
Founder of Vocabilities, Darren McStay trained initially as an actor and musician. With over twenty-eight years of experience recording in studios and performing on stage, he has amassed a wealth of expertise in his field.
He began voice coaching in 2008 and has since helped thousands of people find their confidence and realize their potential as voice-over artists and speakers alike.
Darren initially gained a certificate of distinction in Speech and Articulation from LAMDA before studying for an MA in Acting at East 15 Acting School. He also has the equivalent MA in Radio from the same school and is currently studying to complete his Grade 6 TEFL course through the London Teachers Training College.
To further his resources, Darren went on to complete two further diplomas, one in Life coaching and the other in Hypnotherapy.
As a musician, Darren has played for crowds of up to three thousand and appeared on the same billing as Scissor Sisters, The Cuban Brothers and The Blockheads. He has also performed at some of the UK's most exciting festivals like Glastonbury, Bestival, and Boomtown - to name only a few.

All of this experience gives Darren a diverse and unique set of tools to draw upon when working with his clients.
Every single one of the exercises in these four programmes have been tried and tested by myself and my clients. What sets the apart from other courses is Darren's approach to creating actual physical changes in our bodies, which will keep serving us as long as we wish to utilize them.
