There’s nothing like a last minute job offer that includes an accent…when you’re not prolific with accents. Luckily I found Sarah on IG, drawn in by her enthusiasm and rapid fire accents. She did not disappoint. Not only does she have a great technique for getting you into an accent quickly, you can tell she is invested in you doing a good job. Looking forward to working with Sarah again on the next accent.
I can testify to the effort Sarah put into helping me in the course. I was about to give up on the course due to hearing difficulties, but Sarah decided to provide a way to help me overcome my challenges. I am better off now and feel good about what I’ve learned from her class. A good teacher is someone who won’t give up on you.
Sarah was immediately helpful in my approach to numerous accents associated with my role. She is a credible source of knowledge who understands the importance of discussing an accents authenticity, foundation and delivery.
It was a great experience working with Sarah learning a southern American accent. She is very engaged, super professional and fun to work with. I highly recommend her!
Anna Julienne, Actress
I was very daunted when I was told two weeks before shooting that my character on Underbelly was no longer a Kiwi and now had a strong Lancashire accent.
In fact daunted would probably be the understatement of the century!
However, Sarah soon came to the rescue and with her help the whole process was far easier than I had anticipated. She broke down every line with me and her support filled me with the confidence I needed.
I would definitely call on her again should the situation arise.

Sarah was warm, friendly and bloody helpful in enabling me to get the hang of a Scottish accent. Her approach was simple to follow and I left knowing I had all I needed to do the job. I was also impressed with the range of other regional UK accents she is fluent in and thoroughly recommend her.
Sophia Huybens, Actress
I met Sarah Valentine a couple of months ago when I was preparing for an audition. I needed to learn an accent in a matter of days and although it was short notice she was more than happy to work with me.
I had never learnt an accent before and was worried I would not be able to master it in time. In the few hours we spent together Sarah was able to teach me the tools necessary to learn an accent and also help prepare me for my audition.
I got the role and decided to continue to take voice coaching classes with Sarah because she has a unique style that I found easy to relate to.
Her teaching style is professional but also humorous, which is exactly what I needed to help me relax and learn as much as I could.
She has an extensive knowledge of a range of accents and her enthusiasm and commitment exceeded my expectations.
I am very grateful for all her help and would highly recommend her to anyone wanting voice coaching.
Rob Harding Voice Actor
Sarah is friendly, fun, down-to-earth, professional, and an accent guru. Not only did Sarah help me nail the accent, she also put me at ease and gave me confidence that I needed to relax during the performance.
Denise Snoad, Actress
Sarah helped me create a London accent for my character, and she was fantastic! As an Actress herself, she had a clear idea of the sense and meaning of the script, so it didn’t just become about saying words a different way.
