Overview
A 3-day intensive experience in London for foreigners who want to finally understand — and reproduce — the sounds of British English.
What to expect
What you'll learn
- The British vowel sounds — recognise and reproduce them like notes on a stave.
- Why native speakers are hard to follow — the real differences between Italian and English phonetics, and the mistakes we make without noticing.
- The IPA, used practically — read a sound and produce it, not just label it.
- Self-correction — shadowing, imitation and drama techniques you keep using long after the workshop.
- Real dialogues — analysed phonetically, then performed with a genuine British pronunciation.
Who it's for
Intermediate to advanced.
- Adults who want to refine their English pronunciation
- Teachers of English
- Professionals who use English at work
- Actors, presenters and performers
How the three days work
Before you arrive — two recorded introductory lessons in phonetics, in your own time.
On site — mornings are interactive theory and practice on the vowel sounds, in alternating small groups with Arianna and Aurora. Afternoons are a plenary drama workshop with Aurora.
About 20 hours in total — 18 in person plus 2.5 recorded. Places are limited.

What past participants say
Amazing experience
“I have just completed The Workshop of Sounds course, and I can say for sure that it has been one of the most useful courses on pronunciation I have ever taken, apart from being incredibly fun and motivating. Arianna and Aurora are extraordinary teachers and do an impeccable job of ensuring that the groups not only learn but also bond and enjoy a wonderful, holistic experience.”
The Workshop of Sounds
“Perfect timing (bank holiday), convenient location, great teachers, and nice classmates. A lot of fun…the drama part was amazing! The best gift I could have ever given myself…I learned so much about phonemes and improved my pronunciation. Even though I’ve always hated phonetics and never thought I’d teach it to my students…I’m much more aware now and try to pronounce words correctly during my lessons…and it works!!! More than that…I’m correcting my students…and I’ve had them perform some sketches…just like we did during the course…English as a real spoken language…it was worth the whole three days and I’m looking forward to meeting Arianna and Aurora again for Level 2…thanks, girls!!!”
3-day intensive course in British pronunciation & drama
“I recently completed a three-day British Pronunciation and Drama course, and it was an excellent experience. The program was intensive but very well organized, with a friendly and supportive atmosphere throughout. Aurora and Arianna were incredibly engaged, bringing a lot of energy and professional knowledge. Highly recommended.”
