Accent Reduction:

As you know English is the primary language in the global workforce.  Even though millions of people are speaking English, many are hard to understand. To be an expert in a language means more than just mastering grammar and vocabulary.  Mastery means speaking well, pronouncing words clearly, and not having a distracting speech melody.   

 

Course Content:

This course focuses on 5 fundamental easy steps necessary to speak North American English more clearly, effectively and confidentially.  The K Method is taught in a fun interactive environment where students learn 9 tongue and lip positions necessary to pronounce North American words without a foreign accent. Maximum class size is 10.

 

Designed for: Anybody who speaks English at an intermediate level

  NEXT COURSE:  TBA, contact us for further information

         Class size is limited, register today

 

For companies and organizations who are interested in learning more about The K Method, we are available to provide

depending on the needs of the audience.

About the Instructor: 

Andy Krieger was born in and raised in San Francisco but has spent most of his life in Vancouver, BC. That's why he speaks with an ‘American accent,’ the basis of his K- Method accent reduction process.  After graduating from Stanford University, he joined the Peace Corps and spent 2 years teaching in Ethiopia. Andy obtained his teaching certificate in BC and for 10 years, he taught elementary and high school students in the lower mainland of B.C.  Andy has also worked in Los Angeles for Warner Bros. and for Central Casting as an extra- casting director, hiring extras for CHEERS, M.A.S.H., PRETTY WOMAN, ROCKY IV, STARGATE: THE NEXT GENERATION and scores of other movies, TV shows, and commercials.  In 1997, while working for the local actor’s union, he was asked by a U.S. film producer to help some Canadian actors with their speaking techniques. That's how he developed the K Method language delivery system.  Andy has developed a strong reputation as a teacher who makes students feel very comfortable and confident in the learning process.  He has successfully taught more than 8,500 students in North America and internationally.
