Testimonials

Working on Dune meant stepping into a world where language carries culture, history, and emotion, and Fabien was instrumental in bringing that authenticity to life.

What impressed me most was not only his deep knowledge of phonetics and language, but the way he makes a language feel alive. Chakobsa could easily have sounded technical or artificial in the wrong hands. Fabien’s approach was the opposite: he helped us understand the rhythm, the intention, and the emotional truth behind every line.

He never overwhelms you with theory. Instead, he gives you simple, practical tools that immediately unlock the line and make the language feel natural to speak.

What I particularly appreciated was his patience and his precision. Fabien is an extraordinary coach and a wonderful collaborator for any actor or production.Rebecca Ferguson 

“You have been patient, skilful, patient, fastidious, clear, and patient. You seem to know when to give a note and when to let it develop. Your gentleness and sensitivity mixed with tenacity and skill is something to marvel at.”  -David Tennant
