Alex-
I have had a few students that have had vocal problems (serious enough to seek medical attention) and in each case it was speech- related. One such student saw a speech therapist, with whom I had contact. I had always been told that it was important to speak in a higher register than normal. She informed me that current thinking was that this was not the case.
If your teacher thinks that your speaking is a problem, then you should go to a speech therapist and find out for sure.
