So this is another work out for my student Sarah - she wanted to learn these so I have popped them up for her and now you to have a go with.
Check out my online accent courses at www.actorsaccentcoach.com/learn-online

I have worked with hundreds of people wanting to sound authentic in their chosen Accent whether its day to day life or actors getting roles and wanting to be 100% on point for a character or particular role.

Its easy and simple and so many of my clients have said how quickly they have picked up my teaching technique in comparison with other teachers.
