"Jennifer White is the consummate professional in all areas of her work. She approaches her coaching with extreme detail and finesse and has an abundant knowledge of all things dialect coaching. I have known Jennifer for many, many years and absolutely trust her to take on any dialect and relay the information with precision and ease. I have been lucky enough to have both been taught by Jennifer in dialects at drama school at the start of my career and worked with her professionally in the industry, and I highly recommend working with her."

DAMON HERRIMAN

Edgar" (German/Bronx accent), Nash Edgerton's "Mr InBetween" (mixed Australian/Italian accent), Russell Crowe's "The Water Diviner" (Dublin accent), Steven Soderbergh's "Tot Mom" (multiple American accents), and Brendan Cowell's "The Outlaw Michael Howe" (Yorkshire accent).

"When I was cast in Clint Eastwood's film "J. Edgar" as a German who'd spent eight years in the Bronx, I knew I'd need a pretty amazing dialect coach to help me pull it off! Jennifer came highly recommended and she did not disappoint. Not only does she make you feel completely at ease, but her attention to detail; her research; her ear for accents; her ability for not only hearing but speaking accents - are all second to none. Could not have done it without her."

JEREMY LINDSAY TAYLOR

Coached for: TV drama series "Playing for Keeps" (voice work), the two part biopic miniseries "Olivia Newton John: Hopelessly Devoted to You" (North Carolina accent), and for castings.

Jeremy is well-known for his magnetic performances in "Underbelly", "Romper Stomper", "Barracuda", "Offspring", and "Puberty Blues": IMDB

​"The first thing I do when I land a gig or a screen test is pick up the phone and dial the masterful Jennifer White. Jennifer has a gift, and that gift is genuine love and passion for artists and their lifelong journey discovering their craft. Be it a dialect session or discovering a character's voice, Jennifer brings an infectious joy and humility that cuts right through any self doubt, giving us the tools to be the best we can be ... and believe it!!!! I have grown as a man and as an actor since meeting this incredible woman and am honoured to call her a friend."

MAYA STANGE

Coached for Foxtel's award winning TV drama series A Place to Call Home (Season 6)

Maya is well-known for her captivating performances in "Love Child", "Killing Ground" and "Garage Days": IMDB
Picture
"I worked with Jennifer on creating an English accent for my character on 'A Place To Call Home'. I absolutely loved Jennifer's approach, which not only helped me to perfect the dialect, but was key in creating, developing and fully inhabiting the voice of my character. Because of her acting background, and her finely attuned intuition, Jennifer has an ability to organically guide you into the sounds, melody and feel of the dialect, so that it creeps up on you, until you suddenly find that you have it - no effort, no strain, almost by osmosis! I would highly recommend Jennifer and look forward to working with her again."

ZOE VENTOURA

Coached for: Nadia Tass' film "Fatal Honeymoon" (Alabama accent) and the pilot for Channel 7 Television's long running series "​Packed to the Rafters" (London accent)

Zoe is well-known for her powerful and heartfelt performances in "Underbelly", "Hyde & Seek" and "Wild Boys" : IMDB
Picture
"I found her to be a very thorough and proficient teacher with a positive and friendly manner. She not only gives clear and constructive information and feedback, but also integrates the dialect with work on the character itself, which I found to be enormously helpful. Feedback from the production team was very positive. They thought the accent was flawless and perfectly suited to the character. As a dialect coach I can't recommend her highly enough, and have already done so to anyone who asks."

JESSE RICHARDSON

Coached for: independent film A Godless Country (1800s Irish accent)
Picture
"Before working with Jennifer I had little confidence in taking on an accent. Within a few short sessions however, she had demystified the entire process whilst providing positive and supportive guidance every step of the way. This was fundamental. Each tiny step was encouraged. My confidence grew rapidly as we progressed. Jennifer not only assisted me with the accent, but with my character's speech patterns in general which lead to important cultural and thematic discoveries. By the time cameras rolled, I felt so confident in my preparation I barely realised I was employing an accent at all. I was simply "being"  - and that is the mark of being prepared by a great coach. Thanks Jennifer!"
