Sample Answers

Has your voice ever changed? Actually, my voice has changed significantly over the years. When I was a kid, my voice was really high-pitched, but as I hit puberty, it deepened and became more raspy. I think this is because my vocal cords grew and developed, which is a natural part of growing up. Now, my voice is pretty deep and I'm comfortable with it.

Do you like your own voice? Honestly, I'm pretty neutral about my own voice. I mean, it's just my voice, you know? But I do think it's unique and suits my personality. I've had people tell me they like my voice, so that's a plus. I think what I like most about my voice is that it's expressive and can convey a lot of emotion, which is important for communication.

Do you enjoy recording your voice and listening to it? Actually, I do enjoy recording my voice and listening to it. I find it really interesting to hear how I sound to others. Sometimes I'll record myself giving presentations or just talking to myself, and it's weird to hear my own voice back. But it's also helpful because I can pick up on things I need to work on, like my tone or pace.

Does your voice sound similar to your parents’ voices? My voice is actually a combination of my parents' voices. My mom has a really soft, gentle voice, and my dad has a deeper, more rugged voice. I think I got a bit of both, which is cool. My voice is deeper than my mom's, but it's not as deep as my dad's. I like that it's unique and a mix of both of theirs.
