About Akshay
Can't find HIGH VALUE, LOW COST Acting Coaching & Career Mentoring?
Looking to break in to the industry but have no idea where to start?
Have you been in the game a while but feel like you've hit a dead-end?
Are you looking for an AFFORDABLE coach/mentor with YEARS of real-world experience of the business to help you take your career to the next level? (and isn't fresh out of drama school :P)
Then let's get to work!
With over 15 years of experience working in film and television across major networks and studios, my career has taken me from critically acclaimed dramas to blockbuster films, giving me a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed in this industry.
As a coach, I bring a wealth of real-world industry experience and well-established acting methodologies to my sessions, offering practical, tailored guidance to help actors refine their craft, build confidence, and deliver compelling performances. All while guiding you on personal branding, how to be seen by the right people and how to avoid common professional pitfalls!
Whether you’re preparing for drama school auditions, shooting a self-tape, honing your screen presence, or just starting out, we will focus on enhancing technique, imagination & spontaneity to create a deeper, more authentic approach to your work.
Let’s take your craft & career to the next level!
Credits: (see showreel below)
On TV, I’ve worked on shows like Homeland (Showtime), Virdee (BBC), Count Abdulla (ITV), The Indian Detective (Netflix), Death in Paradise (BBC), and DEVS (FX). I have also been a series regular on the sci-fi drama, Pandora (The CW) and war-time drama, The Halcyon (ITV).
In film, I’ve worked alongside A-list actors on major productions, including billion-dollar franchise Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Disney/Lucasfilm), Irish psychological horror Double Blind and teen rom-com, Beautiful Disaster (Amazon Prime) & Unlocked (Netflix).
About the lesson
- All levels
- English
Languages in which the lesson is available :
English
As a Drama Centre London alum, I blend Stanislavski, Laban, Meisner & Jungian techniques into a flexible, personalised approach.
There’s no single “right” way to approach acting —I believe in working with the instincts and intuition of each of my actors to discover their preferred individual approach.
But more than just technique, I bring real-world industry experience to every lesson. I’m an open book—ask me anything. Whether it’s audition prep, character work, or navigating the business, I’m here to help.
Come with openness, vulnerability, and joy—because that’s what great acting is all about.
Reviews
All the reviews collected from students are verified by our team. They are therefore reliable and correspond to a real experience with Akshay.
Perfect! Akshay is a very talented actor and a fantastic tutor! And I have rarely come across an actor/tutor whom I am truly inspired by their knowledge and awareness of the relationship between acting to human behaviour, which has been most prolific for me because of Akshay's empathy. I am sincerely grateful

Akshay has been a great mentor for me throughout the early stages of my career. He has so much knowledge of the industry and is full of insider insights on audition prepping, approaching agents and utilising my own instincts and life experience to create stronger performances. And so affordable! Thank you Akshay!
Akshay is a highly professional, experienced and knowledgable tutor who is patient, encouraging and supportive. I would highly recommend him to actors at any stage in their career
Akshay's natural, friendly approach coupled with an attention to detail has helped me not only break down texts and characters but also dig deeper to make more interesting choices. A great teacher and mentor and I look forward to working with him for many more lessons! I cannot recommend Akshay highly enough!
Akshay has a wealth of experience under his belt.
I have watched him take his time with every student he works with, ensuring to personalise each tutoring experience.
He always strives to create a safe space for his tutees, guaranteeing that they feel comfortable to make mistakes & take risks within their work.
He’s awesome! Would absolutely recommend!See more recommendations
