Should I get rid of my accent

"How can I lose my accent?" is a question many people have. In this video I take a moment to step back and ask a very important pre-cursor to that question. ---------------------- If you subscribed to my channel because you enjoyed the WIRED Movie Accent video or the subsequent REDDIT AMA I appeared in, thank you and welcome to my channel! I'm kicking off the channel by answering the most popular questions I've received about accents and how to learn accents, and I'm looking forward to seeing your suggestions for future accent related topics in the comments section. You can find the WIRED video here: /watch/EgcXESEvDvNvX You can locate the REDDIT AMA here: https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/5dnf12/i_am_erik_singer_dialect_coach_and_accent_expert/? --------------------- For more accent content join me on Twitter - @accentvoiceguy Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/DialectCoachErikSinger/?fref=ts My website - www.eriksinger.com ---------- Some terrific accent resources I recommend: 'Speaking With Skill' - Book and DVD by Dudley Knight. (Dudley Knight, the founder of Knight-Thompson Speechwork was a phenomenal dialect professional, a mentor and a friend. He's a big reason I became the dialect coach I am today, and he will always be missed by a great number of members of the professional speech community.) Link to the book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/140815689X/ref= as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=140815689X&linkCode=as2&tag=dialectcoco0a-20&linkId=b3bd1b8089e50f09a56ec6e0fb1ea00c DialectCoaches.com's Pinterest page which has over 3,000 accent and voice related links. https://www.pinterest.com/dialectcoaches/ --------- I recently held two very popular accent intensive workshops: General American Accents Intensive and Arabic Accents Intensive. Full video recordings of the class along with extensive PDF's which include embedded accent samples are available for purchase here: http://www.eriksinger.com/workshops/ ------------------- Thanks again for stopping by!
