My experience with Kristine was amazing! When I came to to USA 2 years ago my accent was so hard that people could barely understand me. That is when I realized I need someone to help me and helpfully I have found Kristine. I liked her classes and the system she created to reduce the accent. Now my pronunciation is soooo much better! It went from a place when people could hardly understand me to a point that I was performing a marking video in English for some clients. Thank you Kristine! I can’t not recommend you enough to any student.
