Looking for an enthusiastic and patient music tutor? I am a violin, singing, piano and music theory tutor, who is classically trained musician with a Music degree. I can also teach Music GCSE and A-level and composition. I am especially passionate about song-writing, if that is something you or your child is looking for tutoring in.

The main aim of these lessons is to help singers from a wide range of prior experience and ability to further their passion for singing.

I am a recent MA Musical Theatre graduate from the Royal Academy of Music and have a wealth of performance experience in the genre. I am also classically trained and have achieved distinctions in classical voice grades as well as a BA (hons) Music degree from the University of Oxford where I achieved the cohort's highest grade for my performance recital in 2022. I have experience performing in operatic productions, another genre which keen students can gain tuition.

Songwriting is a fantastic skill whether you are a beginner or want to improve your songwriting capabilities. Not only will your musical abilities improve but so will you english language capabilities as we look to marry music and lyrics in the best possible way. Not only is it a great industry to get into, songwriting has enormous benefits to mental health as it provides a platform for creative expression which in my many years of experience has helped so many of my younger as well as older students. In my class, you will learn the foundations behind creating a great song including: Songwriting forms and structure in all genres, music theory and understanding chord progressions and modes, breaking music theory conventions in order to create a unique sound, great songwriting tools to help with 'writers block', performance coaching and how to convey your songs message on stage as well as all things music industry, including the importance of copyright and how to protect your songs. My students will be working with me on constructing songs as beginners and my more experienced songwriting students will work with professional music industry briefs that I will provide. Students will be able to write songs comfortably and autonomously after only a handful of lessons with me.

If you're looking to audition for drama school, excel in your Drama GCSE or A Level, become better at public speaking, improve your confidence or you simply want to try some acting in a safe environment, then I can help!
I'm a professional actor based in South West London and I trained at LAMDA, The Manchester School of Theatre, National Youth Theatre and The Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance. I have had excellent training in acting, voice and movement and would love to share what I've learnt with enthusiastic, open minded individuals who are up for a challenge.
I auditioned for lots of drama schools and know the process very well, so if going to drama school is your goal I can help you find fantastic pieces, get them to a high standard and give you the confidence to smash your auditions.
My background in dance means I have the tools to help you free up and engage your physicality, which can be crucial in auditions and presentations alike- whatever you need to focus on, we can break down and tackle together.

I also have experience in storytelling, working with and teaching children of all ages, as well as writing and producing theatre.

Starting drama classes as a teenager was one of the most important things I ever did. It help me build confidence, develop empathy and ground me as the person I am today.

I love performing and creating experiences for my audience - watching their faces as they're surprised, entertained or disgusted by the stories I tell.

But just as important as that is the opportunity to share some of the tools I learned from drama school with other people - tools that can be used every day in communication, emotional regulation and play.

I am more than happy to tailor classes to your specific needs, so if you think I can help you out, get in touch and we will talk!

Music graduate, session musician and musical director. Teaching all genres in piano/ keyboards/ synthesiser/ sound design. Personalised lessons for individual needs!

Unlock the core elements of powerful performance in this comprehensive class, designed for actors of all levels who want to deepen their understanding of text and fully embody their characters. Through a combination of practical exercises and in-depth script analysis, you'll learn how to dissect a script to uncover the motivations, relationships, and emotional nuances that bring your character to life.

In this class, you will:

Break down scenes and monologues to explore structure, themes, and subtext.
Develop a clear, actionable process for approaching new scripts and preparing for roles.
Identify key beats, objectives, and obstacles that drive the character’s journey.
Experiment with physicality and voice to find your character's unique traits and mannerisms.
Learn techniques for playing with stakes, intentions, and emotional truth.
Engage in improvisational exercises to discover organic, in-the-moment reactions.
Whether you're working on a classic play or a contemporary piece, this class will give you the tools to fully inhabit a role and deliver a compelling, authentic performance. You'll leave with a greater understanding of how to connect with text and the confidence to create dynamic characters from the page to the stage.

Perfect for: Aspiring actors, performers, or anyone looking to improve their skills in character work and script interpretation.

Looking to get into drama school? Prepare for an audition? Or just want to improve your acting skills? I offer tailored acting classes to suit your needs. I previously trained as an actor myself and now I work as acting coach and a director with both children and adults. I have worked in drama schools and with students hoping to gain entry so I understand the process and what's required from an audition. I am also a specialist in screen acting training being the head of acting for the Young Film Academy, working with children aged 10-17, so if this is your desired focus then get in touch.

My approach is a mix of traditional Stanislavski as well as physio-physical actor training, I aim to work within the needs of the student and understand their personal methodology and style. I have a special interest in working with neurodiverse actors and finding unique ways of approaching training for a variety of needs.

Singing is an important skill whether you are a beginner looking to build confidence or a seasoned performer looking to retain good technique.

We will build on techniques from the 'life after estill' principles. This will be subtly incorporated into the lesson and you will find that breathing and projection will improve quite quickly. This class is suitable for anyone of any age.

My lessons are primarily for adults. You can be needing a coach for an audition or a full production, maybe you want to find that spark again by trying a different method, or you might want to try acting out, great! I can adjust to whatever you need. My lessons are at least an hour or more. I have a vocal/light physical warm-up that I like to do at the beginning of subsequent lessons. I remember one of my first teachers saying "An actor should be a blank canvas." And this made sense at first. So I went up on our small stage to do a monologue and it was terrible. My teacher said, "Kamil, you didn't really do anything." "Well, yeah? I am a blank canvas" As a neurodiverse person, I am overanalytical, literal, incredibly anxious and have difficulty speaking with full confidence.

However, my Master's level education from Bristol Old Vic Theatre School has given me a toolkit where I can work towards placing my self-doubt and uncertainty behind 'The Work.' The Work is the hours you've spent in the text, the pencil markings in the script, the crinkled pages from taking it in and out of your backpack. It's the objective truth that you can rely on when your self-awareness doesn't want you to be the character, when you can feel an audience member looking at you, when the person behind the camera laughs at something you didn't inherently think was funny. It's your character's lifesaver.

For those that may require more structure when they receive text, I can help you deconstruct that overwhelming building into its key components. Whether it's from a play you've been newly cast in, a voiceover script you can't wrap your head around, or just a simple self-tape, we can work to break down text that lets BE that blank canvas on the day, but you know what paints you've used, what strokes you can utilise, you know the feel of the paintbrush from all the canvases you've practised on. Also, it's a good way to memorise lines. And that's just a nice bonus.

Looking to sharpen your skills, nail your auditions, or prepare for drama school? Join me for expert-led acting training designed to give you the confidence, technique, and clarity you need to succeed.

With a Drama Centre London background and extensive stage and screen experience as well as teaching across London Drama Schools, Sam specialises in:

🎭 Audition Coaching – Learn how to make bold, specific choices and bring authenticity to every performance.

Explore the captivating world of scriptwriting, acting, and poetry in this dynamic class ran by Tobi King!

Tobi King is an actor and writer, widely recognized for his roles in Temple (Sky One, Netflix), I May Destroy You (BBC1), and his recent West End performance in For Black Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When The Hue Gets Too Heavy (Garrick Theatre). As a writer, his debut play Before I Go (Brixton House Theatre, published by Bloomsbury) showcases his talent for impactful storytelling. Tobi brings a blend of industry experience and creative insight to his class. Offering guidance in scriptwriting, poetry, and acting, his sessions explore the craft of storytelling from multiple angles, empowering students to find their authentic voice and deepen their understanding of both performance and writing.

Whether you're looking to enhance your writing, performance skills, or deepen your understanding of literary works, this class offers an engaging and creative environment. Ideal for those who seek to express themselves through words and performance while gaining insight into the craft of writing and storytelling.

I am a classically trained pianist with a Bachelor’s degree in Classical Piano and a Master’s degree in Musical Directing, bringing over a decade of experience to both performance and teaching.

With more than 12 years of experience working with adults and children, including those with special needs and learning differences, I have developed a teaching style that is both patient and structured. I believe that a strong foundation in technique opens the door for true musical expression, allowing every student—no matter their age or ability—to discover the joy of making music.

I am well-versed with the different examination boards such as ABRSM/Trinity/Rockschool

Whether I am preparing a student for exams, guiding beginners through their first scales, or encouraging creativity through performance, my goal is always to foster confidence, discipline, and artistry at the piano.

I teach various styles and specialise in Classical, Operatic and Musical Theatre. I also work with singers who are in need of vocal rehabilitation after injury or other medical reasons.

Singing is an amazing skill to have, and it enriches one's life in so many ways. So if you're a beginner, you'll find how instantly rewarding it is when you see how quickly you develop and improve your ability to sing.

If you're an advanced singer or an industry professional, sometimes we can get lost with our technique and confidence. With the right guidance, it's amazing how quickly these issues can be resolved, and how a voice can be unlocked from certain constraints.

***About me***

I am a professional operatic tenor and a graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where I completed my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees, and continue to perform regularly throughout the country and internationally.

I encourage my students to develop healthy singing habits, while combining this with language coaching, interpretation and performance skills. I also work regularly with singers for audition preparation, industry professionals and also in vocal rehabilitation.

Learning to sing is the same as any other skill, and everyone is capable of singing well. Singing is unique to each person and I always adapt my lessons accordingly.
