About Caroline

As a professional actor, my work includes the RSC, West End, fringe, radio, television and film. I've been teaching theatre skills, public speaking, presentation skills, speech and accent improvement, and general confidence, for more than ten years to individuals as well as in schools and theatre groups.

PUBLIC SPEAKING:
Public Speaking is a skill which is becoming increasingly useful and relevant in people's lives - be it for work presentations, at a conference, online, or more informal settings.

I believe the best speakers are, more often than not, a confident, centred, vibrant version of themselves.

However reaching that level of confidence and being able to communicate in a way that engages your audience, takes practice and guidance - so that you can arrive at the stage of being able to walk out there and just speak, naturally, with energy and connecting with your audience.

ACCENT IMPROVEMENT:
I also help people who wish to define and improve their English accent. I've had a lot of success with both foreign and native speakers, helping them to achieve more accurate pronunciation, ironing out any accent related grammar problems, as well as working on stress, intonation and fluency.

My innate accent is RP (‘received pronunciation’, sometimes called BBC, standard, or Queen's English).

I will give you recordings to practise with between lessons, recorded specifically for you, using the content we cover during each session.

PERFORMANCE:
With performance, drama and acting, I tend to work as you would in a rehearsal, on the hoof and doing it. It’s easier and you get more done - it’s more energised - and more fun!

One of my strengths is helping actors and students make their way through Shakespeare: understanding the text, using the language and verse to support the speech, clarifying the thoughts that carry through the lines, and ultimately making it real.

GENERAL
All my lessons, whether they are for Public Speaking, accent improvement, theatre skills, Shakespeare, or simply sessions to help you build your confidence - are all entirely based on what you bring to me as a student and what your aims are. I work with people of all ages and ambitions; shy, confident, inexperienced or professional.

With any scenario, being able to see and hear what’s happening and give bite-size practical hooks - is something I do quickly and easily - as well as being able to offer the more detailed skills and insights accumulated over years as an actor. Often really straightforward, they’re the sort of things that enrich and lift a performance, a speech, or a simple but important interaction - and students are often fascinated by the insights they learn about themselves and others.

Whatever you're after, the best thing is simply to get in touch and we can have a chat about what you want. I am always happy to give advice.

About the lesson

Speech, accents, confidence. Online.

People come to me with quite a range of requests, often accent related or to do with various questions or concerns around self-confidence.

I always used to teach in person - and there’s no doubt that it is a more holistic experience. But teaching online (following the pandemic) has proved to have different advantages and offer different insights which have been really useful.

In either case, if the lessons are accent or intonation related, I will give you recordings to practise with between lessons, recorded specifically for you, using the content we cover during each session.

My own accent is British RP (‘received pronunciation’, sometimes called BBC, standard, or Queen's English).

The skills required for everyday speaking are very different from those used in reading or writing (our brains process language differently depending whether we need to code and de-code thoughts and words into a written/read format, or whether we can rely totally on our ear). However I have found there are often benefits in using both experiences to teach our brains what to listen out for - and so familiarise ourselves with more intuitive sound patterns as well as learn the more technical aspects. Either way, what we’re aiming for is a natural, truthful response or rendition in spoken English - whether you’re reading, presenting or just talking off the cuff with other people, employers or friends.

All my lessons, whether they are for accent improvement, public speaking, theatre skills, Shakespeare, or simply sessions to help you build your confidence - are all entirely based on what you bring to me as a student and what your aims are. I work with people of all ages and ambitions; shy, confident, inexperienced or professional.

But with any scenario, being able to see and hear what’s happening and give bite-size practical hooks - is something I do quickly and easily - as well as being able to offer the more detailed skills and insights accumulated over years as an actor. Often really straightforward, they’re the sort of things that enrich and lift a performance, an ordinary conversation, a speech, or a simple but important interaction - and students are often fascinated by the insights they learn about themselves and others.

Whatever you're after, the best thing is simply to get in touch and we can have a chat about what you want. I am always happy to give advice.

Please Note: I try not to teach at weekends - not least because I'm rarely available. Please bear this in mind as I can't share my availability with you until after we are in contact.

Perfect! I had a very positive experience interacting with Caroline, right from the first minute! She's clearly a very dedicated, attentive, and experienced tutor. As an example, when I faced a psychological barrier doing a vocal exercise, Caroline instantly found a way to loosen me up and put me in a place to do it. I was shocked by how easy it was for her, and how efficient the solution was! Also, a big thank you for a very personalised homework assignment.

Caroline's thoughtful lessons and advice have been a wonderful discovery. They have helped me tremendously to expand my horizons and I am now looking at things through a new prism. I am going through a really interesting experience and I love it!

Perfect! I recently had the privilege of working with Caroline, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of exceptional. Despite having lived all my life in the UK and being quite familiar with the nuances of the English language, Caroline's attention to detail and tailored approach to speech tutoring brought to light several areas of improvement I was previously unaware of.

Her expertise not only lies in her deep understanding of phonetics and linguistics but also in her ability to make complex concepts accessible and engaging. Caroline's patience and genuine dedication to her students' progress stood out remarkably during our sessions. She went above and beyond to ensure that I could not only grasp the theoretical aspects of speech but also apply them practically in everyday communication.

For anyone looking to refine their speech, regardless of their background or level of expertise, I cannot recommend Caroline highly enough.

Perfect! Caroline has taken me from being an extremely nervous presenter to a very confident one. Her methodology is not only to point out what I can do better but also how I can bring my own personality into presenting. I have seen the difference after only one session so I continued the coaching with Caroline.

Perfect! Caroline is the kind of tutor I have been wanting for ages to help me 1-1 with presentations and public speaking. Caroline is down-to-earth, honest and empathic - I felt comfortable with her straight away. Right from our first session she gave me guidance that had a significant impact on my view of situations and my confidence. And in my delivery she picked out numerous things, obvious and not so obvious to help me develop as a speaker/presenter. My first presentation after seeing her went really well and I got compliments from a colleague. I was also alot less scared which helped me to just get on with my message. I'm looking forward to our next session. Definitely give her a try.

Perfect! Best 30 pounds I've ever spent
Caroline is not only a master in this field, but she is also friendly, polite and very charismatic.

I work in a customer-facing role, and I came to this site to ensure I came across as clearly as possible.
Caroline immediately made me feel comfortable. She askes the right questions and was able to professionally diagnose areas of improvement with my speech and enunciation. She guided me through relevant exercises and left me with material to work on in my spare time.

I'm now confident and able to speak more clearly, given Caroline's tutelage.M

I would recommend her to anyone!

Caroline is an amazing coach. She has helped me gain confidence in presenting and positioning myself for job interviews and work presentations. She has given me a lot of direction with positive critique, which has been crucial in building my skills up. After one session I already felt more confident and in control of how I present.

Caroline is a superb teacher - friendly and knowledgable. She quickly put my shy daughter at ease and she came out beaming. She said she felt she had been let in on all sorts of secrets about acting (Caroline was a professional actress - and has an impressive list of credits but is really down to earth, adding in funny snippets of what happens in real rehearsals or performances) - and she said all Caroline’s ideas were really useful and made a lot of sense to her.

Caroline had asked my daughter to practise with me now and again (for her GCSE performance) and I must say when she did her scene with me after her lesson it really shone. My daughter’s a really good actress (well I think so!) but there was detail in there that really made me laugh and she just seemed so much more confident in everything she was doing - she took her time and you could almost see her thoughts. Just great.

Sorry, limited editing options on "rates", so here are more details: Packs aren't really a thing the way I teach, but the website gives these automatically! You can have as many or as few lessons as you like and I just charge for the time I spend working with you. With "travel costs" there is no option to put "at cost" which is what it would be, rather than the default £0. However normally sessions are either online or clients come to me in TW1. PLEASE NOTE - I try not to teach at weekends - not least because I’m rarely available!
