So you want to level up.
But there’s so much noise and no signal.
That’s where we come in.
By the way, it’s Tony here, curator of The Northwest Method and co-founder of Northwest Culinary Academy of Vancouver.
I’ve taught thousands of people just like you, so I know what’s missing.
The biggest thing? Teachers giving you the credit you deserve as a learner. Giving your learning context. Purpose. Excitement.
We’ll take your mind and hands to places they’ve never gone before. Not just by showing you how to cook. But by teaching you how to learn how to cook.
Our flagship Fundamentals 101 course was designed to be the quintessential education to get learners – both pro and home cooks – started on the best footing to level up. It’s something we’ve worked on in our brick-and-mortar classrooms for over 18 years, with over 200 cohorts, and a team of eight professional chef-instructors.
And now you too can get this education. From your home, when you want it, and at your pace. Our flagship Fundamentals 101 course is 25 hours of real deal learning that will change your life! As will our always-growing menu of themed courses.
But if you can’t make it to our Northwest classrooms. We’ll come to your kitchen studio (see, we’ve already turned you into an artisan).
You bring the chops, we’ll bring The Method.

P.S. Take our free 3-day Kitchen Confidence Crash Course and learn more about who we are and how we teach. You know, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship.

So imagine being able to…
1. Create like an artisan
Impovise in your kitchen. Jiving to your own ideas. For that’s when the kitchen becomes a place of joy. Have patience. It will happen.
2. Think like a chess player
Think 2-3 moves ahead and anticipate how the ingredients will transform. Learning techniques is one thing. Using them strategically, is another.
3. Move like a dancer
Flow with rhythm. The kitchen is not the place to hesitate and stutter-step.
4. Use your hands like a sculptor
Wield your knife and pans like a pro. Naturally, it’s going to take this thing called practice.
