"One of the participants, Jay Luciano, said in an interview with the Chicago Tribune: "I'm Jay, I'm 15 – I take classes in Chicago. They're vocal classes to teach me how to speak and express myself like my preferred gender."

Nathan Waller, who is the clinical instructor that manages the transgender speech program and services, told MTV: "It's not necessarily uncharted territory, but it's a really very niche population. With each new generation you're seeing people transition earlier"."

Interesting!

I took speech lessons from a speech therapist who is well known in my area for tutoring trans women. Not only wasn't it helpful, but it made me feel self-conscious about my speech which is really the opposite of what I needed.

I hope this works out better.
