| Hi guys. I desperately need to find an effective accent coach who specialises in American accents if possible. If anyone can give me any help with that please drop me an IM. Thank you all for taking the time. S | ||

| Hi yes, Terry is a good teacher. I took a class with him once to learn Deep South American accent, and he even produced a tape for me to take home, with all types of American accents! (bring some money with you, the tape would prob cost like £1). But at the end of the day, learning an accent requires discipline and practice at home, so Terry can only show the way, the rest is up to you. Hope this helps! x Ava. | |

| Rick Lipton- he's head of voice at Mountview but also specialises in indivudual coaching. Just did a play where he was our coach and he is amazing- can't find his card but his details are on stage jobs pro! | |

| Yes, I'll second that - Rick Lipton is an amazing dialect coach and is a native American. He was my tutor at Mountview. If you can't get his personal details, you'll get him through the school. Lindsxx | |
