Acting and Performance Coach
Acting Coaching
For Children
I have an up-to-date enhanced DBS and years of experience teaching acting to children. I can work with them on speech exams, creating and developing a character for a performance or for auditions and castings.
An initial Zoom or call with the parents to discuss what’s needed and then it’s either a 30 or 60 minute coaching session for the student. Parents are of course asked to stay on the Zoom and be around for the session.
Wedding Addresses
Coaching For
Are you a Groom, Father of the Bride, Best Man, Bride, Mother of the Bride, Bridesmaid, Relative or Friend that’s been asked to give either a reading or deliver a speech at a forthcoming wedding. Stressful right? The nerves are already kicking in! I can work with you on how to deal with those nerves, how to learn your lines, how to deliver that speech and finally to sit back down to rapturous applause! By talking through the stories that you want to tell I can help in the writing and editing of your speech.
​
We can work on delivery, vocal quality, performance and where needed comedy placement and timing of either your speech or the reading you’ve been asked to give. As well as my years of acting experience, I have had to deliver a best man’s speech 4 times, one of which became an original sketch involving all the groomsmen! I have had to deliver a brother of the bride (in place of father of the bride) speech for my sister and have been asked to deliver two poems as readings. There’s no character or acting role to hide behind, so I was just as terrified as you! But I delivered every time. I can help you to do the same and make it as stress free an experience as possible!
