About James

I have four years of experience as a tutor and practitioner. I tailor lessons to your specific needs and interests and if you have material to work on or a goal in mind we will work on that. I draw upon my experience as an acting coach to create engaging, artistic, and interesting lessons, I believe approaching public speaking through acting work leads to greater self-expression and helps students improve whilst losing inhibitions. For me, the most important thing about public speaking is inspiring your audience with your idea, one must plant a seed that grows in the mind of the listener long after one has spoken. I specialise in the methodologies of Stanislavski, Uta Hagen & Michael Chekhov. I have also used the Alexander Technique extensively and so can help with delivery, projection, and relaxation in public. I have a Law Degree, I am an avid reader of literature (from Shakespeare to Tolstoy) and a cinephile; I love the works of Kubrick, Sally Potter, Mike Leigh, Julia Ducournau & Bertolucci to name a few. I run my own theatre company in London, I've worked in projects for Netflix, Apple TV, had work screened at Cannes and worked across UK theatres, also winning The Stage Award for Acting Excellence at the Edinburgh Fringe. As well as training at Drama Centre London I also spent time training at The Boris Shchukin Theatre Institute, one of the foremost acting schools in the world, and have worked with a wide range of people with differing experiences. I have also been running English Speaking Clubs for a range of different levels and nationalities for the last few months, I find when students focus on a task or game rather than what they sound like, they more easily express themselves. I've spent the last year teaching 1-1, improving speaking skills and confidence and I've also worked with students preparing for IELTS and Cambridge Exams. I can tailor my lessons to meet your specific needs & interests and I will work with you every step of the way to achieve your goals. Book a lesson with me today and take the first step towards becoming a confident, effective and inspiring public speaker. Let's work together to unlock your full potential. If one would like to develop oneself as a speaker one must practise in effective ways. I have the tools and experience to help guide you, push you, challenge you and make sure you give the best account of yourself, inspiring your audience with your idea.

I am also able to help those working in business and academic environments who need help with specialist language. I work in Theatre and Film and trained at the prestigious Drama Centre London, alumni include Tom Hardy, Emilia Clarke & Colin Firth. I coach people from a range of professions from business people, to students, to actors who are looking to improve their public speaking skills and confidence. I am also a specialist in the works of Shakespeare and can assist with related queries. I have four years of experience as a tutor and practitioner.
