A selection of what we hear from clients:

As a speaker and entertainer, my voice is my livelihood. It’s no exaggeration to state that Jay Miller rescued my voice. He was very easy to work with and gave me the insights and tools to rebuild my vocal strength and avoid damaging my vocal cords again. I highly recommend Jay Miller to any speaking professional.
Mike Mandel, President, Brain Software

Jay has tirelessly shared his wonderful skills and understandings with me over the last few months and I am so grateful! I arrived with a number of voice problems, predominantly recurring laryngitis from improper vocal habits, and find that I’ve been given the tools to remedy that. My voice is essential for my livelihood so to say I’ve been given back my
voice is the highest praise I can imagine.

Rev. Dr. Cheri DiNovo, MPP Parkdale-High Park

The skills I learned in my first session with Jay had an immediate effect on my next presentation. I was grounded and focused, established a genuine connection with my audience, and delivered the material with clarity and confidence. Jay’s perceptive and intuitive guidance has enabled me to access more of my potential as an effective communicator.
Ross Slater, President, Metris Group, Inc.


Jay Miller is an outstanding coach–completely professional, calming and attentive–thorough and yet reasonable in preparation. He knows what to focus on in a given time period. His research is impeccable, and the time spent with Jay is profitable. I recommend him to my students and fellow professionals all the time; feedback is always positive and enthusiastic.
Marcia Bennett, Actor/Instructor/Coach

I highly recommend Jay’s coaching services. While I thought I knew what voice coaching would be before my first session, Jay blew through my expectations and took me to a realm of learning and experimentation that I could not have imagined. He is a uniquely talented voice coach and a pleasure to work with!

As part of my job, I have had to make presentations to colleagues and students for decades, and have dreaded it for just as long. In September of 2005, I took an presentation course with Jay Miller. Jay’s coaching has given me a sense of confidence, and a chance to relax and enjoy (and even look forward to!) the experience of talking to groups of people. I learned to effectively structure my talks and present them so as to make them both worthwhile and memorable. I certainly wish I had been able to take more sessions.
James A. Stewart, MD, Anesthesiology, King Faisal Hospital

Jay’s classes make difference and his methodology works! Following his advice, I was able to reduce my Russian accent ramatically, and my speech became much clearer. As a result, I became more comfortable socializing with people in English. But I especially benefited from the sessions that focused on the pronunciation of professional terminology. That was very important for my job search, which resulted in a great offer from Walt Disney Studios in Los Angeles.
