Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Watch television and films to find actors who speak with the accent you want to learn!. Look for actors whose voices are similar to your own!. Purchase or record the show with the accent and simply imitated!. Learn the lines and say them over and over again!. Record your efforts and play it back to see you need to adjust your accent!. Then practice the accent by reading out loud with it or getting friends and families to practice with you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Two of the best dialect coaches in the business are David Alan Stern and Gillian Lane-Plescia!. A web search on either name will lead you to resources for learning a wide variety of accents!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
