American Accent Drills for British and Australian Speakers provides a comprehensive guide to learning a General American accent, made specifically for native English speakers.

Unlike most American accent guides, which are geared toward ESL learners, this handbook covers only the shifts that English speakers need to make - nothing more, nothing less. In addition to vowel and consonant drills, it covers the finer points of American intonation and elision, features that often elude English speakers of other dialects. Finally, it provides exercises for owning the dialect, finding authenticity and making it work for each individual actor in their own way.
