"Thank you so much for all your patience with me.  More than a teacher you have been a motivational guide who has pushed me to reach beyond my horizon."

-- Anil Kapoor (Slumdog Millionaire, 24)

In The Press

"Even though I speak English, I had a dialect coach (Joel Goldes). I had long sessions with him during the entire filming of 24, and he was of great help to me as far as figuring out how my character would speak. Because Hassan was educated in Britain, we gave him a bit of a British accent. So in 24 you’ll find a complete change in the way I talk and in my voice quality as compared to what I’ve done before."

"The dialect brings yet another distinct layer of realism, thanks to coach Joel Goldes' efforts."

"Of special note is Joel Goldes’ vocal coaching: the accents are intelligible without being distracting."

My past acting and directing experience uniquely qualifies me as a dialect coach: not only can I guide you in the subtleties of a new accent, I can also help you explore sound possibilities within the character's given circumstances.

I look forward to working with you.
