Name Coach

About Name Coach

Name Coach is a user-friendly recording and playback tool that enables faculty, staff, and students to voice-record their names so that others can hear how their names are pronounced. Faculty, staff, and students can record their names using a computer, mobile device, or phone.

There are two ways to record your name:

• Via a Blackboard course in which the tool has been enabled.
• Through the Name Coach Blackboard course.

3. Select the small arrow to the right of "NC24" and then Enroll.
4. Select the Submit button.
5. Select OK.
6. Once in the Name Coach course, follow the on-screen instructions to record your name.

After completing your recording, a small play button will appear next to your name in the UTHSC directory.
