American Accent Teachers Wanted.
American Accent Teachers Wanted.
Very strange job ad in yesterday's CD. An anonymous self-styled International school advertised job vacancies which included what appear to be full time positions for "2 American accent trainer teachers."
Not sure precisely what they mean. Do they want staff to teach American accents to students or teachers or both? It may mean they want American accented applicants to give general training to other teachers.
Whatever the intention, it is a very weird request. It may present an opportunity for desperados with American roots, but no qualifications or salaries were mentioned.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't have an American accent and already have a full time job. I would be interested in knowing what it's all about, though.

Everyone knows how easy it is to speak with an American accent - you just move your mouth from side to side instead of up and down.
My first thought was one of these operations;
