From a Vancouver actor
It was amazing! I learned so much, and took
home a lot of very valuable tools. When I left
your class, I truly felt like what I can best
describe as a "Soldier marching into battle
knowing full well he had the biggest gun, and
unlimited ammunition".

From a Japanese Speaking Student
Thank you so much for your unique and
interesting instruction yesterday. Your
approach was very logical and clear. Also,
since you are very good at encouraging
people, I did not get as nervous as I thought I
would during your instruction. Now, in order to
use what I learned yesterday effectively in my
daily conversation, I am going to practice
every day, watching DVD. Thank you again!

Thank you very much, Andy.
This is what I learned from class:
1. Set the position before I say the word.
2. Make long vowel and speak slowly.
3. Pay attention to the intonation.
4. be confident and speak out loud.
You are an extremely good teacher and I can tell you have the passion for helping people like me to reduce or even get rid of my accent! Thanks again and I’ll definitely recommend this class to others.

Wendy Wang (China)
About Andy’s class:
- learned how to pronounce each word
- learned and witnessed how to set the position, the mouth and tongue, to pronounce the words I had difficulty with
- I was asked to slow down before I speak so I can say the whole sentence clearly and be better understood
- I figured out how I can slow down and imagine the position of words before I actually pronounce it.
Thanks a lot, Andy. I’ll keep in touch for any help I need by email or phone.

Accent Reduction Class
Saturday Feb. 3, 2007
Churchill High School
This course has been a great help to me. It helps me to
speak more clearly and reduce my accent. Although it is
only a 1 day course it is very beneficial. The method is
scientific and easy to understand. Andy is a great
teacher and he is able to help us individually. I strongly
recommend him to those who want to speak English
clearly and without an accent. He is also a very
experienced instructor, too.
Peter Fong (China)
I took the Accent Reduction class today with Andy
Krieger and found it quite helpful in aiding me with tools
to speak clear English. Andy uses his own special
technique that seems to work quite well. He’s very
patient instructor and I wish that this course was
available more often at more locations.
Beata Siwinski (Poland)
An excellent weekend course to reduce accents by
following 5 concise steps. Other courses out there try to
cover every little detail which are not only lengthly but
hare to apply into practice. Andy is very helpful and
committed to his students and invests his time and
effort to make sure they improve and achieve what they
want to achieve.
Deepak Kumar (India)
Andy is a great teacher. He is patient, caring,
passionate. I hope by taking this course it will help me
and anyone whose English is a second language.
Sandey Wang (China)
I found today’s course interesting and very helpful in
order to communicate more clearly and to be better
understood. I really enjoyed the class, the way the
course is structured and the instructor’s teaching
method. Useful information and I consider that it was
well spent time today.
Gabriela Mintici (Romania)
Andy has lots of patience helping and correcting
students’ speech. The teaching method he used is
helpful. For example: have students watch the monitor
while they talk. Using gestures while speaking help
students understand when to start to speak.
Cindy Wu (Mandarin)
I have experienced this course as well structured and
helpful. The use of AIV-tools for mouth-movement
pronounciation control is effective. Also the introduction
of hand-movements to adjust breathing. Overall an
inspiring and encouraging experience.
Christiane Kleiner (Germany)
Andy, the class you have us is really helpful. I have got
the way to speak English more clearly and without my
accent. That makes me much more confident in my
career and in my new life in Vancouver. Thank you very
much.
Nancy Zheng (Hong Kong)
I really enjoy taking this class with Mr. Krieger. He teach
me how to reduce my accent when I speak English.
The most important thing from this class was that I didn’
t fall sleep over the course content. He also have each
of the student practice enough on how to speak
properly. Thanks to Mr. Krieger for teaching me how to
reduce my accent. I am now more confident in talking
and also will help me a lot with my job because I will be
able to give proper instruction when I talk.
Vicky Nguyen (Vietnam)
Today’s course is most informative and interesting. I
would not hesitate to introduce A Krieger to any student.
Lan Kwong (Hong Kong)
I enjoyed class. I’m going to remember what I learned.
My language is very flat so it is not easy to pronounce
English. I learned the position of the tongue and lips
and lots of ideas, so it is good for my future.
Aki Hishida (Japan)
In April, Andy was in Hengdian, China, teaching Jackie Chan and 4 other actors on his movie called "The Forbidden Kingdom"."
