Accent and Diction Training for Non-Native Speakers
“As English is my second language, I tried some of the ESL (English Second Language) training courses offered by various linguists and language training centers. At the end of the trainings, I was even more frustrated… The training with Pamela Prather definitely helped me to reach the ultimate goal – speaking clear and effective English in both business and social environments. I am very grateful for Pamela Prather’s coaching, help and friendship.”

Dialect Coaching for Actors
“Pamela’s work has been show-saving! I’m slow with dialects and therefore terrified of them and entered our first sessions with fear and trembling. But she made the principles so accessible and her energy was so encouraging that I caught on more quickly than I’d ever expected and soon found myself acting with the dialect rather than in spite of it! I still don’t know how she does it, but what she accomplishes is liberating. She’s a truly gifted collaborator!”

Dialect/Accent Coaching for Productions
“Pamela Prather is a gifted voice and speech coach who forged sympathetic and genuinely helpful relationships with all seven actors in the company of The Psychic Life of Savages. Much of the play’s depth and humor depended on actors credibly reciting poetry as poets: to this task, Pamela brought her research, listening and teaching skills, giving the production much needed specificity. It was a pleasure to work with her.”
