As an American who was raised in Germany - I need to improve my accent - a lot! So these videos were a real help and most of all they were not only scratching on the surface. Here you can find outstanding support. I love it. Thank you very much Amy - you are inspirational and a joy to watch. Adam
When I watch your videos, a nonchalant atmoshere walks into my room. The energy flows into me and suddenly there's a new fresh life in me, a better one. It's extremely relaxing and after watching it I know that I want to live that life no matter how hard it can sometimes be. Thank you! You're splendid.
If we can't do these exercises when no one is watching, why would we be able to perform when everyone is watching. These exercises are one more way to get out of our self-consciousness. Excellent!
Really happy to find Amy and her channel. I narrate audiobooks and this exercise (along with her other videos) have been a big help in improving my work. Thanks!
you did a great job it is helping me a lot to learn the american accent. I actually searched a lot in youtube for videos which gonnna help me to learn the same , and after a long wait and effort i found yours. Thanks for such a work.
My English teacher told me I should go to the hospital when she saw me doing this! She said I was kind of a fool x) Then, I replied it was Amy Walker's trick and I got fired of the classroom :/ But this video helped me a lot with my accent, now people can almost understand what I say^^ thank you so so much Amy
I think she's terrific. I'm Australian/Brit and my accent is truly dreadful, I'd do anything to get rid of it. I'm sorry, the more I watched the the more I like her. Hahahaha. Fantastic. thank you
Hey Amy, I love your videos. I've recommended you in a few of my own videos now! I've found this warm up incredibly useful for warming up- especially before work where I had to talk to lots of people, and before making my youtube videos!
omg i must say that i really enjoyed this tutorial as an aspirinig actor i feel we have to have a little crazy since we must be free from inhibitions thats what makes us different from others. To have the courage to entertain do things out of the norm. You freaked me out yet made me laugh so much i love love love your energy ....Thumbs up i will be lioning it up lol
thank you for helping me. forget about the boring comments. just do always your American accent and I will copy you. cheers Amy Walker! you are splendid! this comment came from my six years old son Enzo.
I'm really appreciating and having fun trying to learn the Standard American accent from watching and listening to your videos. I'm just starting out with acting and as I live in Brisbane Australia, it's sure taking lots of practice! Thankyou so much. The downside is, my jaw is permanently damaged so I can't do all the exercises that you're showing. Bummer!
You're so amazing! Your videos are super helpful! I apreciate your intention of helping others. In two days I'll be taking an important exams. I'll surely take your videos into consideration. Thank youu :)
LMAO! I got lost as soon as she started doing the sirens, or was it before that! lolls very funny, but its good, watching her other videos lolls very good and helpful :)
Hi Amy, thanks the detailed guide to warming up before kissing, unfortunately having done that I now have ended up with no-one to kiss! Have I done it wrong? Seriously, thanks very much for such a fantastic series on the USA accent, the amount of care and love you put into your tutes is simply inspiring. Thank you!
I was once in a group, and was told to do similar exercises. On one hand, I can see how it can help your voice and facial muscles. On the other hand, it might be best to do it in private, because anyone seeing it will likely think, "what the hell is that crazy person doing". :P Another thing, I myself often have tension headaches, so thanks for pointing out the thing about the jaw. I'll try that and see if it helps. :)
Love it, Amy, your authenticity is contagious! 😻🙏💚 I remember watching this back in in English class at Highschool to learn accents and having a huge crush on you. 🤭
You are really good on what you do ***** But i dont really think we should do that every single day before starting a conversation, i just get up, get ready and go to work, most of people don't have time to do all that stuff, however their pronunciation is awefully great, but needless to say i had fun watching your video like always. Thanks
Sayed Waly I've never met a professional voice coach who doesn't make you do these kinds of exercises, I've been through singing, public speaking, language and theatre classes and these exercises are very similar. Only people who are very serious about their craft would do this.
Amy, you are absolutely awesome... you goofball... thank you for helping me rediscover the silly me. Oh, and also for helping me with my accent! Where do I send the check? ;-)
because of my accent ( nothing dramatic lol) and the way my mouth is moved to speak i found it VERY hard to do the repetitive sentences and opening my mouth wide and round xD my mouth hardly opens to talk,it took a lot of consentration ;) really hope to improve though so thank you! great video as always :)
It looks weird but by watching this video, I know that this will help me a lot since I'm working as a telemarketer. Thank you for this video I'll make this as a habit before going to work. 👍
Hi, I live in Holland and applying to an acting academy/education nearby. The auditions are soon and the assignment was to chose a monologue (dutch) I asked if it was okay to do one in English since it seemed more real to me and my father is an American. I was allowed to do so. However you can still hear that I have an accent when I speak American so I'm working on it to seem as "American" as possible. I hope that your video's will help and if you have any advice I hope to hear from you soon (the audition is 6 March)
Dejean Brown They didn't pick me.. :( I was so focused on my " speaking" that I totally messed up the most important and most simple thing: being myself.. I wish you the best of luck!
Do we need to do a cool down exercise as well? thanks Amy, I woke up my GF in the morning doing the warmup and she was worried that if I have lost my mind ;) LOOOOOLLLLLLLzzzzz
This woman is one of the best teachers I have ever seen in my life! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
You would be the most amazing drama teacher! You just radiate light and positivity and you're so fun! I love you! Thank you so much for this!!

Applause Bravo!!
Read this Amay , im from Saudi Arabia and a huge fan of u love so much
Your advices and the whole video are jus awesome. The point is I have neighbors... ^^
You are really good on what you do ***** But i dont really think we should do that every single day before starting a conversation, i just get up, get ready and go to work, most of people don't have time to do all that stuff, however their pronunciation is awefully great, but needless to say i had fun watching your video like always. Thanks
got entertained, relaxed and thought i watched a box office funny movie! lol:) This is really a great video i learned and appreciate it alot!
Amy, you rock my world!
wow. This was kinda scary. All I wanted to do was learn how to speak with an American Accent. But this is borderline crazy
Sayed Waly You will be shocked at how much easier it is to speak clearly with proper warm up though. If you're trolling, never mind.
I am not trolling. I was serious. She might have a point in there, but it just seems crazy. And I dont want anyone watching me do that
Sayed Waly I've never met a professional voice coach who doesn't make you do these kinds of exercises, I've been through singing, public speaking, language and theatre classes and these exercises are very similar. Only people who are very serious about their craft would do this.
Thanks Amy xx
I like it too much..
And by the way what a nice hair you have..
this is the best vid on youtube - SO FUNNY
Amy, you are absolutely awesome... you goofball... thank you for helping me rediscover the silly me. Oh, and also for helping me with my accent! Where do I send the check? ;-)

Amy Walker -- Thanks... We all love you ....

Hi, I live in Holland and applying to an acting academy/education nearby. The auditions are soon and the assignment was to chose a monologue (dutch) I asked if it was okay to do one in English since it seemed more real to me and my father is an American. I was allowed to do so. However you can still hear that I have an accent when I speak American so I'm working on it to seem as "American" as possible. I hope that your video's will help and if you have any advice I hope to hear from you soon (the audition is 6 March)
Same here..;-]
Dejean Brown They didn't pick me.. :( I was so focused on my " speaking" that I totally messed up the most important and most simple thing: being myself..
I wish you the best of luck!
Thanks!!!
Wow her voice doesn't break when it goes up.... she must be amazing at singing
Great vocal range.
Do we need to do a cool down exercise as well? thanks Amy, I woke up my GF in the morning doing the warmup and she was worried that if I have lost my mind ;) LOOOOOLLLLLLLzzzzz
She feels like a teacher. She should be a teacher. (Which is a compliment)
Yes and we also do a cool down
