In this Northern vs Southern Irish Accent workshop you will learn the major sound differences and similarities between the Emerald Isle's two capital cities, Dublin and Belfast, and how to successfully apply those changes to your work.
This workshop is an intensive accent workshop. You will be given a lot of information in a short period of time and it is not recommended for accent first-timers or those specifically seeking 1-2-1 feedback.
