    Austrian here. My school struck to Oxford English and we had speaking exercises to get us to adopt a British accent. (Their main goal was to make us sound more native and less like Arnold Schwarzenegger). American and Austalian accents were accepted but not actively encouraged by the teachers.

    I myself tried to adopt the British accent but I think I kinda ended up in a weird mixture of British and American English :')
