What kind of Teacher Do I Need?

[GermanShepLuv]

If I want a permanent RP British accent, do I need a teacher that coaches accents for actors? I’m asking because my current tutor is not able to teach students anymore

Possibly, but check them out carefully- I have seen some poor videos by some people claiming to train accents.

What’s a good way to find a legit one? I’m looking for a teacher in order to take Skype lessons. I found someone from gumtree website and he said he have 10 years of experience but I don’t know if I should choose him or look for someone else.

I would contact anyone you might be interested in and ask them for a 30-minute free trial lesson so that you can judge the quality and see if you get on. Not all teachers will do this but those who are confident of the quality of the lessons should offer you some kind of taster session.
