ABOUT ME
With over two decades of versatile experience as a producer, actor and public speaker, I bring a wealth of industry insights and practical expertise to our coaching journey. As an actor I have starred in feature films, TV series, and commercials. My own acting accolades include awards for my performances, such as Best Actor at The Mac Film Festival for my role in the international short film "Cinnamon."

Now I've dedicated myself to nurturing the next generation of creators and actors. My teaching philosophy is grounded in a holistic approach, blending proven methodologies such as Chekov, The Method, and Meisner techniques tailored specifically for on-camera acting.

Having conducted private TV and film acting classes and served as a film acting coach for esteemed production houses, including Hollywood based Muse Productions, I've honed my ability to inspire, guide, and mentor aspiring talents.

I believe in fostering an environment that encourages experimentation, growth, and self-expression, empowering students to discover their unique voice and hone their craft with confidence. I'm committed to providing personalized guidance and mentorship every step of the way.

Let's unlock your potential together!

Acting as a form of dramatic expression and oratory
Acting is a form of expression used to inspire, entertain and enlighten. These classes would explore self in an objective way that would allow one to be able to portray fun, honest characters. It would specialize in line delivery, characterization and interpretation.

Ambre
French lessons with a native speaker For every level
As a native French speaker living in such a cosmopolitan and diverse city as London, I believe that a lot of people would like to learn French. we would evaluate your level with a simple conversation to get to know each other and see if we’re compatible as a student/teacher, and start planning a timeline for your objectives. Then I will adapt the class depending on your level, your expectations. It could be either conversations to practice speaking, more school-oriented classes, more work-oriented ones...

Musical Theatre Classes - Singing, dance and acting
My name is Vanessa and I am an actress, teacher and producer currently based in London, United Kingdom. As well as training and performing within the Theatre industry since 2011, I have also taught art disciplines such as acting, singing and dance and dance fitness from the ages of 3 upwards. Some of my performance credits include, Motown The Musical, Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Hairspray and Legally Blonde to name a few. For those that have a keen passion for entering into the Theatre industry, I am able to use my experience to offer professional training across all disciplines and help equip them with tools needed to thrive as a performer. Similarly, for those that enjoy the arts as an extra curricular hobby/space to express themselves creatively, I take pride in holding a creative self space to help my students to unlock self confidence, self belief and their broader imagination as well as strengthening skills such as teamwork, singing, dancing and acting. I am able to hold online classes and work to an international timezone to reach all my students and for those based in London and prefer face to face lessons, I'm able to rent studios or arrange home visits where requested. If you have big goals within the theatre industry or if it's a hobby that you'd like to venture into or pick back up again, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Vanessa :)

Patrick
Acting Teacher / Drama facilitator / Workshop Leader
"Who knew gaining experience as an actor and experiencing performing in a dramatic fashion could be done with such quick results, passion and fun. Why didn't I start earlier? In saying that it might just be him." As a teacher, course leader and facilitator, I have taught all ages for over 20 years. Whether it's primary school children on a Saturday wanting fun games and dramatic exercises building confidence and dramatic experience or professional actors preparing for a series regular, my skills are hard to match. Still a professional actor at the cutting edge of the business, my experience remains invaluable and I still enjoy sharing it and passing it down.

Maria
French, affordable and for all levels and purposes!
For all levels, for both children and adults, and diploma preparation. All aspects of the language would be targeted during the lessons, emphasizing those desired by the student (ex: conversational, grammar) Depending on the level and the method of study will be adapted to each student, with outside-of-class follow up. The classes will be conducted in either English, French, or both, once again depending on the needs and the level of the student. Classes focused on the reinforcement of the language can also be organised, focused on specific topics that the student is interested in, which will allow the student not to lose the language and to develop further their knowledge of lexicon in the specific area. In what concerns diploma preparation, the lessons will focus on the particularities of the tests (timing, response format, lexicon, etc).
