This paper introduces a new English speech dataset suitable for training and evaluating speaker recognition systems. Samples were obtained from non-native English speakers from the Arab region over the course of two months. The dataset was divided into two sub-datasets. Ten samples were collected from each speaker for each sub-dataset. The first sub-dataset contains samples of speakers repeating the phrase “Machine learning 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10”. The second sub-dataset contains samples for the same speakers speaking randomly for five to ten seconds for each sample. The dataset consists of 150 speakers with a total of 3,000 data samples and about six hours of speech.
