My specialty is PRONUNCIATION | California Native. Can you say "GIRL" or "WORLD"? Lessons are IMMERSIVE, we study PRONUNCIATION + grammar, vocabulary, phrasal verbs, idioms, slang. *Guest Speaker at 4 International TESOL conferences*
I can turn OFF video for long-term students and they sound NATIVE.
If you said these words on Speaker Phone, would you be understood?
*leaf - laugh
*wreath - reef
*collar - color
*men - man
*come - came
Did you know many sounds come from a VIBRATION in the throat? We even have NASAL sounds!

It was great! I can hear and feel that my pronunciation changes and I also like it that I acquire some spoken phrases from Kristine. She is a great professional and attentive coach! Thank you! I'm already looking forward to our next lesson.

I enjoy these lessons so much. She always tries to challenge me with new vocabulary and phrases that I'm not familiar with. I feel like I'm improving a lot and that encourage me to keep learning. She's an excellent teacher.

I'm amazed by how much I'm learning from Kristine about pronunciation. I've been speaking English as a second language for years and I had no idea about the real way sounds should be pronounced. Kristine explains the physical aspects of speech in great detail perfectly suited for a geek like me.
