About Tom
I am a professionally trained actor, writer and acting coach with extensive experience helping students develop confidence, performance skills and technical excellence. Alongside my acting background, I am a self-published author with novels available on Amazon, giving me a strong understanding of storytelling, character and communication.
As a tutor, I specialise in acting, public speaking, audition preparation and LAMDA examinations. I have successfully coached students from Grade 2 through to Gold Medal (Grade 8), with 100% of my students achieving Distinction in their examinations. Whether you are taking your first steps into acting or preparing for advanced performance qualifications, lessons are tailored to your individual goals and experience level.
My training draws upon respected practitioner techniques including Stanislavski, Laban and Yat Malmgren, helping students build believable characters, deepen emotional connection, strengthen physical presence and develop vocal confidence. I also provide coaching for drama school auditions, monologue preparation, public speaking and interview confidence.
Above all, I believe acting should be challenging, rewarding and enjoyable. My aim is to create a supportive environment where students feel empowered to take creative risks, build confidence and achieve their full potential both on stage and beyond.

My teaching style is personable, supportive and challenging, creating a safe environment in which students can develop confidence, creativity and technical skill. Drawing upon professional actor training, I tailor each lesson to the individual, helping students unlock truthful, engaging performances while building a strong understanding of character and text.
My approach incorporates a range of established acting techniques, including Stanislavski’s system, Laban movement analysis, voice and speech work inspired by Yat Malmgren, script analysis, emotional connection, objective-based acting and character development. Whether you are a complete beginner, preparing for drama school auditions, working towards LAMDA examinations, or looking to refine your craft, lessons are designed to meet your goals.
Alongside performance technique, I help students develop confidence, stage presence, audition skills and a deeper understanding of the acting profession. My aim is not only to improve performance but to equip students with the tools, discipline and self-awareness needed to succeed both on stage and in the audition room.
Lessons can be tailored for LAMDA examinations, GCSE and A-Level Drama, drama school preparation, monologue coaching, audition technique, public speaking and confidence building.

Tom is a conscientious acting coach with a unique approach and insight that offers drama school level teaching on a 1:1 basis. Highly recommended
Tom has been my son’s coach for almost 6 months and the progress he has made on my boy’s confidence and diction is staggering. Tom gives young people drama school standard skills in a way that is fun, approachable and provides results! Thank you Tom!
Tom is a credible LAMDA coach that has provided Distinction grades for every student he has coached. Not only is a versatile and knowledgable coach with an array of skills, he is also a working actor and so has been able to put these into practice! His tireless and unrelenting dedication to his students makes him a reliable and unique coach that will provide quality results.
Having witnessed his acting and teaching methods first hand I'd highly recommend Tom as an acting coach and mentor. He's helpful and really wants his pupils to succeed in what they want to achieve.
