Useful information

Do I need previous accent training?
No. This course is suitable for both beginners and experienced actors who want to refine or adapt their accent.
Is this course only for non-native English speakers?
Not at all. While it’s valuable for non-native speakers, it’s equally beneficial for native speakers who want to adjust regional sounds to a neutral English accent.
What do I need to bring?
Bring a short piece of text - this could be a poem, a novel extract, or a monologue — to practise applying your accent work.
Will I get feedback on my progress?
Yes. You’ll receive personalised, constructive feedback throughout the course.
Will this help with auditions?
Absolutely. A neutral English accent is often requested in casting, and this course equips you with the tools to deliver it convincingly.
