Dialect coach

A dialect coach is a professional who helps actors and speakers accurately adopt specific regional or cultural accents and speech patterns. They analyze sounds, intonations, and rhythms of a particular dialect to ensure authenticity and clarity. By providing guidance on pronunciation, pitch, and speech habits, they enable performers to convincingly portray characters from different backgrounds or regions. This role is essential in film, theater, and television to enhance storytelling and credibility, ensuring that language and accent usage are appropriate and natural for the character and setting.
