Workshop of Sounds - London Edition 2026
A 3-day intensive course in pronunciation and drama
- November 27 – 29, 2026
- Twickenham
Overview
A 3-day intensive workshop in Twickenham, London for intermediate and advanced speakers: British English vowel sounds, the IPA, shadowing and drama techniques, so you can hear the difference and reproduce it. It's an eye-opening experience.
What to expect
What you'll learn
- The British vowel sounds. How to hear them, and how to produce them yourself, like notes on a stave.
- Why native speakers are so hard to follow. The real differences between Italian and English phonetics, and the mistakes we all make without noticing.
- The IPA, put to work. Read a sound off the page and say it.
- How to correct yourself. Shadowing, imitation and drama techniques you can keep using long after the workshop.
- Real dialogues. You analyse the phonetics, then perform them with a proper British pronunciation.
Who it's for
Intermediate to advanced.
- Adults who want to sharpen 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 lessons in phonetics, to watch whenever suits you.
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.

Top-Tier Language School
“Highly recommended language school! All teachers are extremely knowledgeable, approachable, and skilled at creating a stimulating yet welcoming learning environment. I attended the Workshop of Sounds in person in Milan in 2024, the follow-up Workshop in Turin in 2025, and I'm currently taking Level 3 online: a structured, progressive, and truly effective programme. Aurora and Arianna aren't just highly skilled teachers, they're also passionate and attentive to each student's needs. They share their knowledge with enthusiasm and dedication, making every lesson engaging and never dull. It's clear how much they love what they do and how invested they are in their students' real progress. Another thing I really appreciate is the practical approach: there's a strong focus on real pronunciation, listening skills, and speaking confidence, with targeted exercises and consistently up-to-date materials. I can't wait to move on to Level 4! This is a school that genuinely cares about teaching quality, ideal for anyone who truly wants to improve their language skills.”
3-day intensive course of British pronunciation & drama
“I've recently completed a three-day British Pronunciation and Drama course, and it was an excellent experience. The programme was intensive but very well organised, with a friendly and supportive atmosphere throughout. Aurora and Arianna were incredibly engaging, bringing a lot of energy and professional knowledge. Highly recommended.”
