Information About Alex - Chalfont St. Giles teacher

Personal Description:

Further to a Singing Diploma in Musical Theatre (MT) London College of Music and Diploma in Acting, I graduated from the prestigious Urdang Academy (London) with a BA Hons Degree in MT and Professional Dance. I have been on and off the stage since I was 13 yrs. old. Recent shows include: EVITA UK Tour and Copacabana. I also performed most recently in UrineTown The Musical at the Bernie Arts Theatre (London). I've achieved all acting grades up to grade 8, 7 of which have been distinctions. I am currently spending my time teaching and auditioning for TV/FILM as well as theatre.

Teaching Experience:

5 years of teaching experience. Whether students want to extend their acting range, polish material for an exam or need extra confidence to stand on a stage or camera, I see myself as the facilitator. I provide students with the tools and skills for strengthening their acting needs. My tuition is in a safe and professional way and environment. I firmly believe everyone can be able to act to a high standard and all actors can develop further regardless of their existing ability. All levels and age groups are welcome. Drama is inclusive, wether you want to reach a standard to get into drama school, help your current education or to increase the possibility of getting an acting job. I've got the facilities to help you achieve that.

Teaching Approach:

My approach begins with an assessment and understanding of your current knoladge and experience with drama. I would start showing you exercises on how to warm up in order to reduce the risk of injury. After an analysis of your voice the next stage is working towards a piece of dialogue or duologue which can be either of your choice or one of my suggestions (from all genres). When learning material certain aspects get revised, vocal delivery, style characterization and objective work. Whether our sessions are In person or online, or a combination of both, I adapt to student's preference. Together we set up SMART goals to help the student achieve gradually.
