Speech I

In this course, students are introduced to the sounds inherent in General American Speech and learn to identify the sounds they are making in comparison with this standard. Sounds are taught using the International Phonetic Alphabet, a notation system which allows students to visualize sounds and apply the correct sounds to their text work. Students leave with an awareness of their own speech patterns and tools with which to make changes. Required text: Speak With Distinction, by Edith Skinner.

Before you book

  • Ask whether you can audit or try a single class before committing to a full session.
  • No class can guarantee representation, auditions or roles. Be cautious of any that suggests it can.
  • Be careful with workshops where you pay to perform for casting directors. California law limits charging performers for audition or job opportunities. Know the rules and red flags.
