Description
Three of the UKs leading accent coaches present The ACCENT Kit: an invaluable tool and resource for actors, and anyone wanting to learn an accent.
Edda Sharpe, Jan Haydn Rowles and Richard Ryder’s highly skilled yet invisible work, can be heard across the creative industries, from Game of Thrones to the Royal Shakespeare Company. They are on the call sheets for all the major international film and TV production companies and on the rehearsal schedules for leading theatre producers and directors. Simply, you couldn’t be in better hands.
The ACCENT Kit app is free to download and gives you access to a library of REAL AUTHENTIC ACCENT SPEAKERS validated by experts for authenticity and ‘usability’.
Build your very own accent library at the touch of a button.
Only buy accents that work for your profile and character.
Or use the app to record people reading The ACCENT Kit and build your own accent library for free!
Downloadable kits include recordings of authentic speakers demonstrating the five crucial elements needed to learn an accent, set out in a simple, easy to use structure;
• FREE SPEECH: a 1-3 minute story of personal interest in the speaker’s own words.
• FOUNDATIONS: the oral SETTING, the focal ZONE and the TONE of the accent.
• PRACTICE TEXT: the speaker reading a set text containing all the speech sounds and combinations you need.
• WORD LIST and SENTENCES: all the vowel shapes of the accent together with practice sentences recorded by the sample speaker.
• CONSONANTS and PRACTICE SENTENCES: six consonant sounds that can make or break your accent together demonstrated together with practice sentences recorded by the sample speaker.
Each element is user friendly, straight forward and easy to navigate.
Tap the question mark at any time for further guidance.
You can also;
• Record yourself practicing the accent.
• Store all your recordings in your own library of MY RECORDINGS and PURCHASED FILES.

Ratings and Reviews
Can’t restore
I really enjoying this app but when I transferred all my data to my new iPhone, my purchases were gone and when I try to restore them, the app just kicks me out.

This App Is Amazing !!
I needed a tool that could help me learn a Californian accent for a movie role I’m preparing for. And being Capetonian, it seemed a daunting task until I discovered this app.
I’ve only been following its instructions for one afternoon and, honestly, my confidence is now through the roof!
I had some serious doubts but now I’m convinced that with a little more practice - perhaps a couple weeks - I’m really gonna nail my performance when the time comes!
Thanks so much for this revolutionary app, guys !! And do keep up the great work.
Developer Response ,
Just going through old reviews and were thrilled to read yours! Thank you for taking the time. We appreciate it, and are so glad our app is doing no for you the very thing it was designed for!
Purchases stopped showing
Purchased accents not showing anymore on my device, anyway to fix this?
Developer Response ,
Hi Skyler. A year on, can we ask if you’ve had any more luck with our app? We have made many bug fixes etc in the meantime. You can go to the Accent store and restore purchases there, and we have many more accents to choose from as well. Hope we see you back! The Team
