Using the International Phonetic Alphabet for Accent Coaching!
Wednesday 11th June 2025, 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM (London Time)
Hosted by our very own Louisa Morgan, this session will provide a deeper dive into the methods of delivery of IPA in accent coaching. Here, there will be a more focused scope on the variety of pathways for students looking to learn an accent with IPA. Louisa will allow time to explore the limitations, practical considerations & benefits of each method, at an intermediate level. This exploration of IPA methods beyond the elementary level will allow for a much richer toolkit for you to take with you into all manner of actor training environments.
