The “Dark Horse Method” 9-Step Networking Program
Accent Training & Oral English Practice Training Program
Let’s face it - most people you meet in the US may be hesitant to point it out when they don’t fully understand you, whether because of your pronunciation, accent, or your use of vocabulary. In addition, certain well-intentioned expressions could come off as strange or even uncomfortable for the listeners. Nobody wants to be the one who pops the bubble, like the brutally honest kid did in “The Emperor’s New Clothes.” Therefore, it may already be hard to identify the issues, let alone to make improvements. But don’t fret! We, a team of people who have experiences in coaching international students speak English with ease and comfort, have come to your rescue.
We designed this highly personalized one-on-one interactive coaching program that pairs you with an instructor who improves your English pronunciations as well as your communication skills in both casual and professional scenarios. We are not here to make vague promises - we are here to get things done and show results! You will be expected to show hard work and commitment, and we are here to guide you along the way. The course content is also designed to be fun and practical, so we are looking forward to an exciting journey with you!
Over the span of 3-6 months, you will improve your spoken English while cracking the underlying secrets of casual and professional social interactions, through weekly hour-long coaching sessions and 5 hours of hands-on exercises. The course is categorized by certain scenarios in social interactions, such as “constructive criticism” and “humorous speech.” In learning those topics, you will improve through guided active listening, imitation, and mentor feedback. Your mentor will point out things that you might have not been aware of, correct you and provide you with helpful feedback along the way.
Why Our Strategy Works?
"Improvement" is hard to quantify. Through interactive assessments, we get to know each individual client and analyze his/her strengths and weaknesses to formulate a customized and actionable plan. During resume critique, outreach training and interview evaluation, we carefully dig deep into the details (e.g. choice of verbs) for what can be improved to enhance a candidate's chance of being acknowledged by the potential employer.
What really sets us apart is our dedication in understanding your cultural landscape and taking cultural differences into account. By doing so, we get to the root to bridging the differences in ways of communication and ultimately, bringing forth "the best of both worlds" to help an international candidate shine in networking and interviews.
