Accent versus Dialect

Accent refers to the sounds, the pronunciation of a language. A dialect is a version of a language that is special to a particular region or group. Many people having learned ESL (English as a second language) have been taught by non-native American speakers so when they come to the United States their English has traces of their original accent plus the accent of their teacher, therefore the accent is not American and may be difficult to comprehend. Claudette Roche is most known for her teaching of Real American providing techniques to help blend students into the population. Her foreign accent training for actors utilizes phonetic spelling and Roche teaches the class using the accent students wish to acquire. Roche teaches every accent spanning the globe including: Standard American, New York, UK (Irish, English, Scottish, Welsh), Chinese, Nigerian, Iranian, Russian, French, Italian, German and Mexican.
