It seems more people want to hear and see me, so here I am!

In this very short video, I'm giving you just a super quick sample how to sound like you have a real American accent if English is not your first language.

As you know, speaking English with an American accent and sounding like you were born here can be a challenge. My goal is always to make you sound authentic, no matter what the accent is that you are learning.

Have fun and thank you for watching.

  • What accent do YOU speak?!

  • @yyttroll I speak with a Neutral - Standard American accent but I can switch to whatever accent I like and stay there for hours very comfortably.

  • Do non-actors ever approach you wanting to learn an accent "just for fun"? As in, say, an American who has a real love for all things British, including the RP accent?

    Accent coaches typically talk in terms of reducing accents of foreigners and/or teaching an accent to be applied by an actor, so I am just curious about this question.

    You and "amiablewalker" here on YT are always so fun to watch when it comes to learning about accents. More, please! :)

  • @GMJ7 Yes, some non actors learn accents, as well. See my website and read about Dennis McLoughlin.

    And thanks for watching.

  • Claudette, please more videos and lessons))) Thank you, merci!

  • @ArkenAvan Will do. Promise!

see all

  • I have a russian accent cuz i'm from Russia(logic:D)

    And is it possible to get rid of an accent and speak like as i was born in USA?

    And is it possible to non-native english speaker learn few accents? I like some British accents, and some Americans.

    Charlize Theron, btw got rid of her accent and became fluent:)

  • @theaccentcoach What accent is considered the Standard American? I mean what state does speak it?
