Selma helped me with my professional exams (medical OSCEs- timed acting exams).
She helped me so much with my confidence through a lot of different exercises and helped me to find my inner confidence (and spirit animal- a bear)! We experimented with loads of different approaches to approaching a scene or improvising with a scene partner. She helped me to troubleshoot issues with my delivery and how I expressed or communicated myself. She helped to put me in the right mindset and gave me tips on how to bring that frame of mind into the exam. She’s so encouraging and such positive energy which was exactly what I needed with my anxiety before the exam…Selma helped me so much with a recent audition, with exercises that allowed me to experiment and play freely, unlocking new ways of approaching my character. More importantly, she created a safe environment for me to trust my instincts and not be afraid to just go for it. Especially being a newer actor, there’s so much that Selma could break down easily for me to understand and respond to.
I have no acting experience before joining this class, and I wasn’t sure what to expect.
Selma was very supportive, encouraging and made the environment feel very comfortable for learning.
She provided so many valuable insights into acting, character development, script analysis, experimenting with different approaches and emotions that I had never considered before. Her feedback was always thoughtful, constructive, and encouraging.
She helped me to identify areas for improvement, which also helped me build confidence.
What I admired most was her passion for teaching, the craft itself and her genuine investment in each student’s progress.
I always doubted my ability to act, but she helped me realise that I was capable of it.
Thanks to Selma’s guidance, I have gained a much deeper appreciation for acting and feel far more confident stepping outside my comfort zone.
I would highly recommend her to anyone, whether you’re a complete beginner like I was or someone looking to further develop your acting skills.I’ve directed Selma in multiple productions and she is an extremely talented performer. She has fantastic range and depth - a rare quality in a performer to have both - and has a “yes and” attitude. I wish more actors I direct are like her. She collaborates really well and it would be a privilege to be taught by her.
Over the past five years, my son has had the privilege of being taught by Selma whose impact has extended far beyond the stage. What has always stood out to me is her remarkable ability to create an environment where every child feels seen, valued, and encouraged to express themselves with confidence.
Her classes are led with genuine kindness, compassion, and inclusivity, but also with an unmistakable passion for the craft of drama itself. She nurtures not only performance skills, but empathy, creativity, resilience, and collaboration — qualities that stay with children long after the lessons end.
What I find most telling is that after five years, my son still looks forward to every class with the same excitement and enthusiasm he had at the beginning. That sustained love for learning is a testament to the warmth, intelligence, and dedication she brings into the classroom every single week.
She is the kind of educator who leaves a lasting imprint on her students — not simply because she teaches drama so well, but because she understands children so deeply.See more recommendations
