Katherine, I was very grateful at your ability to create accent consistency in the cast, it’s always a big achievement on these big period projects. I loved having you on set last week and I think you’ll be proud when everything is finally put together. Merci beaucoup!
–Joe Genier (Director), “Teen Wolf”
Katherine Vallin is a sheer gift. Her expert knowledge of the French dialect and all of the nuances, gave me the confidence to give a performance I am proud of. Having her on set allowed me to have complete emotional freedom within my scene work. Even the finest detail was examined. What makes Katherine invaluable is that in addition to her dialect expertise, at her core is a teacher who genuinely cares. Every second I spent with her was met with passion and dedication. I cannot thank her enough for her knowledge, guidance and love.

WITH CRYSTAL ON SET
I tried to speak my French lines to the film director. He was really happy, he thought we did a great job in LA, and they even wanted to add my French lines … I really want to say thank you sooooooooo much for your great help, otherwise I couldn’t have done this, really. It was a really wonderful time to study with you…
