Why Private Coaching?
Perhaps you've been struggling with a particular challenge around your speaking for some time. You've researched the challenge and found exercises on YouTube that claim to fix the issue, you've bought books, you've purchased mini-courses, etc...and while you feel some improvement, the issue keeps showing up.
The truth is, we can’t really self-assess AND fix our own challenges. When it comes to speaking, it always feels more natural when we’re not self-conscious. We need an outside source (who is also an expert in their field) to help us discover what our goals and challenges are, and to give us tangible tools for achieving those goals. That's where I come in.
I have over a decade of experience teaching voice, accents, acting, and communication. My background in performance, MFA in acting, plus years of training as a coach in Fitzmaurice Voicework®, Knight-Thompson Speechwork, and Organic Intelligence® means I have a wealth of knowledge for assessing your speaking as it is now, and for providing a tailored arc of training that will help you achieve your specific goals.
Where will we meet?
Sessions are held in my home studio in East Los Angeles or via Zoom.
If you'd prefer me to work in your space in LA, contact me for my travel rates.
How long are sessions?
Generally sessions are one hour; however, for tailored programs we'll likely do a combination of different meeting times in order to best achieve your goals.
How often are sessions?
In general, I recommend building a tailored program with lessons and schedule based on your goals. You'll work on your specific skills multiple times a week, and we'll meet in person at least once per week with additional asynchronous lessons and feedback likely accompanying the 1:1 coaching.
What's your rate?
My rate for coaching varies depending on the program, length of time, and material of the coaching. Contact me or schedule a free consultation to learn more.
What will we cover?
Since private coaching is tailored to your needs, we'll discover together what we want to work on in each session. Before the first session, we'll talk about your goals and challenges, and I'll create a session plan. You can find out more about the types of coaching I do here.
What should I bring?
Before any sessions, we'll schedule a consultation so I can learn more about your goals and challenges, and so I can share more about my approach and suggested programs. If we both decide we're a good fit for each other, then I'll let you know what to prepare next.
