English is not only the official language in 67 various countries, but in contemporary society English is vital to achieving jobs, broaden your mindset and improving opportunities in all aspects of life.
English is a core subject which requires 'thinking outside of the box' for every book that you read, every text you analyse and every communication that you listen to.
By teaching you the necessary skills for your specification and exam, you will develop a utilitarian skillset of knowledge to help you ace every english exam.

Approach to Teaching
– I favor a structured approach. I devise lesson plans in advance of every lesson, catering to the student's specific needs.
– Academic lessons tend to be structured around specific sections of the syllabus, or particular topics that students require help with.
– I employ a seminar-style format. I flesh out ideas with the aid of quotations, other audio-visual resources, and analytical commentary. I structure my lesson plans with a view to providing gaps, in which students are able to ask questions about the content. I am also happy for students to interrupt the flow of the lesson if a burning question arises.
– I use Powerpoint to provide students with a variety of resources and visual stimuli.

Lesson Structure
– Academic lessons tend to be 45 minutes to an hour in length, but I can adapt my teaching schedule to provide students with additional support if needed.
– Typically violin lessons range in length from 30 minutes to an hour, but I am flexible: I am more than happy to devise a lesson structure that caters to a student's requirements.

Academic Credentials
– I am a candidate for a Ph.D. in Music at the University of Cambridge.
– I hold an MPhil in Music from the University of Cambridge, where I specialized in Historical Musicology and Musical Aesthetics.
– I have a first-class music degree (74.4%) from the University of Manchester, where I won three Hargreaves Prizes for Academic Achievement.
– I have worked as an Assistant Music Teacher, which involved teaching Music A-Level students.

Professional Credentials
– I have worked as a private violin teacher for 7 years (since I was 17). I have taught a variety of students, from beginners starting their instrumental training to more advanced performers looking to improve their technical facility and performance skills.
– I have an extensive portfolio of performing credits on documentary films. Recent highlights include the BAFTA-nominated score for the BBC docuseries on Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein 'House of Maxwell' (BBC2, 2022), and 'Sir Alex Ferguson: Never Give In' (Netflix) (Passion Pictures / Universal Pictures) (2021).
– I have extensive experience as an orchestral musician and chamber music performer. I led the University of Cambridge Experimental Music Ensemble (CUEME) when I was studying for my master's degree at the University of Cambridge. I also led the University of Manchester Chamber Orchestra in the second year of my undergraduate degree at the University of Manchester and premiered a good deal of new music with The Eskandari String Quartet.
– I have performed at the West Road Concert Hall (University of Cambridge), the Lee Tseng Hall (Wolfson College Cambridge), the Buxton International Festival, the Manchester International Festival, and Bridgewater Hall.
– I achieved a distinction (92%) in my ATCL Diploma in violin performance, and a First (78%) in the final violin recital of my undergraduate degree.

Expected Ability of Students
– Academic level: Beginner through to GCSE, A-Level, and Undergraduate Music and History of Philosophy

Kwaku
I.m a RADA trained Actor/Producer/Acting Coach with 17 years experience teaching acting and coaching. I am currently an Audition Panel Member on the RADA 3 Year Acting Course.

What I offer:

Drama School Audition Preparation
Aspiring to train at a top drama school? I offer drama school audition prep, helping actors choose the right monologues, refine their delivery, and approach auditions with confidence and authenticity.

Preparation for Castings & Self-Tapes
Master the art of self-taping and auditioning with confidence. Whether you're preparing for a high-stakes casting or need to create a compelling self-tape for Spotlight UK, I’ll guide you through script choices, performance techniques, and the technical aspects to ensure your submission stands out.

Developing a Role & Character Work
Already cast in a role? Let’s dive deep into your character’s motivations, relationships, and emotional truth. I provide detailed script breakdowns and scene analysis, helping you make bold, authentic choices that bring your character to life.

On-Location & On-Set Coaching & Support
Acting on set comes with its own challenges. I offer real-time support for actors working on film, TV, and theatre projects, ensuring that your performance remains fresh, focused, and dynamic under professional conditions.

Voice & Speech Coaching for Actors
Finding your voice is essential to a compelling performance. I work with actors on clarity, diction, and enunciation, ensuring their voice is expressive, powerful, and precise. This is not an elocution class, but rather a deep exploration of how to use your voice effectively for performance. A strong, expressive voice is key to a compelling performance. Through breath work and floor work, I help actors connect with their natural voice, unlocking greater clarity, resonance, and control.

Why Work With Me?
I am passionate about helping actors unlock their full potential by providing a supportive, challenging, and professional coaching environment. Whether you're preparing for an audition, developing a role, or looking to strengthen your voice and speech, my coaching is tailored to meet your individual needs.

Let’s refine your craft and take your acting to the next level!
