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!
Working with Sarah Valentine was everything I could of asked for and more in an accent class. The class breakdown and the Valentine method made it so easy to learn and master my British accent. Sarah’s feedback was so helpful while also being fun. I would definitely recommend Sarah for anyone wanting to learn an accent. I can’t wait to sign up for another course!

I really enjoyed this course. What I like is that I can do it at my own pace and redo the exercises as needed. I plan to do a private coaching too so this is a good “introductory” course to get started with and get familiarized with the accent I’m learning.

I needed to learn a British RP accent for a “scholarly” cartoon character I’m voicing. Sarah Valentine’s tutorials were incredibly helpful in getting this right — with just the right amount of charm and fun mixed in with the serious stuff.
