“Kat met me where I was at in my process and helped me take my dialect prep to the next level. She covers all the standard bases of dialect acquisition while paying special attention to the space between my specific idiolect and that of the characters I am preparing. Her ear is fantastic, her notes are clear, and her passion for the work is palpable and infectious.”

“For someone who might be considered an experienced voice actor working regularly with acquiring and utilizing different accents and dialects, Katherine's class introduced me to several techniques and perspectives I had either never considered before or used effectively until then, that I will implement into my work from here on out!"

"Kat Littrell is an incredible educator and communicator. She can help both new actors and veteran actors discover new facets to their voice and overall acting work. 

Kat’s refreshing in that she empowers her students with usable tools that they can immediately employ in their dialect work. She is compassionate and insightful which frees the actor to take chances with their work in a safe space. 

Kat is a serious expert who is also a lot of fun to work with. Her non-judgmental and supportive approach is amazing.”

“Our group coaching session with Katherine on GenAm was so incredibly helpful - from clear, comprehensible coverage of the key features of the accent to brilliant personalised individual feedback and exercises that met us all where we were. Katherine is clearly extremely knowledgeable and conveys her expertise with openness and enthusiasm. My GenAm accent has improved greatly from a single session."

“As a coach, Kat was attentive, patient and able to provide direction in a way that was easy to comprehend and employ, while also making me feel confident in my own performance.  As a teacher, Kat masterfully broke down how to research and learn a dialect in a way that was practical and accessible to all experience levels.  She is professional without sacrificing warmth.  It was such a pleasure to learn and be coached from Kat, and I cannot wait for the next opportunity to learn from her again.”

“I will admit that I’m an accent-phobe. I way overthink everything but I am thrilled with the outcome of our session and wanted to share my experience! The way Kat approached the session was perfect because she hit at all different angles. It felt technical but still very easy to understand. So much knowledge was shared, but she presented it in such a digestible way that it didn’t scare me."

“My experience coaching with Kat was one I had been personally searching for. With precision, Kat can zone in on text, character and motivation within a scene, highlighting how the inner world of character can add more levels to my storytelling in a scene. Kat pushed me as a narrator to discover key moments and to enrich my performance with more dynamics. Her style of coaching opened up my narration to a new level, never glossing over the hard parts, and giving me the confidence to open up what is already inside me as an actor, and to tap into it with trust.”

I just recently coached with Kat for the first time on four different dialects (for a single audiobook, whew). Kat expertly diagnoses when there’s a skill gap vs a crisis of confidence. The mental game is an often under-addressed yet ever-present part of any performance, and Kat’s an excellent coach to work with for concrete approaches to soothing the jittery beast!
