Ros Simmons

Experienced Accent Coach and Dialect Coach

Hello! I am an accent coach and dialect coach based in London.

As an accent coach I work frequently with both foreign speakers and British speakers who are keen to reduce their accent sounds and improve pronunciation and delivery.

As a dialect coach I specialise in teaching accents and dialects to professional actors for film, TV, theatre and commercials.

I also coach professionals who wish to build vocal confidence and improve their presentation skills.

Here’s what some of my Accent coaching clients say…

“I found it very helpful. My Line Manager even commented on the improvement in my voice, so thanks for all your help.”
— TD, Broadcast Journalist
“You provided me with the tools and techniques to fix some key areas and helped me to present in a much more relaxed, confident and professional way…it was also a lot of fun!”
— S Henry, Customer Services Manager, Finning UK
“I made a lot of progress in my objectives. I think your method of teaching was very good and was accurate in answering to my needs. I can hear a big difference in the way I sound.”

“I want to thank you for your careful, professional teaching and your friendly kindness.”
