If you’re looking to build confidence, skill, and knowledge within the drama and performing arts, I can help!
Working with you, I’ll tailor lessons to support your development. Whether you’re working on a specific performance project, you’re looking to audition somewhere, or you want to build confidence and skills. Let me work with you to help you achieve and explore your potential.

During the lesson, we’ll start with a warm up, followed by goal setting. That way we are clear on why we want to achieve in the time.
Classes are an hour long (can be 2hours at your request!) where I’ll include learning and teaching around key practitioners, their approaches in theory, and activities to support you to explore the theories practically.
I welcome students of all ages, but have most experience with upper secondary, college and university levels of study.
Sessions are £35 p/h and can be done remotely, or at my home. You will also have access to a Google Classroom area where you’ll access materials and tasks between sessions.
