Have you ever faced the challenge of understanding the local accent in an English-speaking country? However good your English is, and even if you are a teacher of English with years of experience, it can be a humbling experience when you get into a taxi in Glasgow and the driver initiates a casual chat with you.

We would like to invite you to a very entertaining research trip around the world: This is our English Accent Tour.
8 accents from England, 3 British accents, and 8 non-British English accents.
Each one comes with a thorough introduction / explanation / background section,
plus demo film excerpts and interviews with musicians, actors or other famous “users” of the given accent.
It’s a really fun and fascinating trip around English accents, it’s absolutely worth giving it a try .
And just to reassure you:
If, while listening to some of them, you can’t even recognise it’s English , never mind, most of us may find ourselves in the same shoes, no matter how good our English is .
