From Pamela Fox of Kahn Academy

I use my voice a lot. I give talks at conferences, I teach workshops for GDI, and I record videos for Khan Academy.
But I’ve never loved my voice. I grew up with British parents, so I spent my life wishing I had an accent that sounded as smart as theirs. And now that there are videos of my voice on the internet and comments underneath those videos, I know that there are a few aspects of my voice that don’t always work so well, like the clarity of my pronunciation, upspeak tendency, and verbal tics
