About James

- What kind of experience do you have?

I have been a private tutor since 2008, teaching acting, LAMDA Exams, Drama GCSE and A-level, English, Maths and Science.

Acting teaching credits include preparing students for drama school auditions and developing appropriate skills to deliver both classical and contemporary text. This involves breaking down the text to decipher meaning and voice and body warm ups in order to prepare vocally and physically for an audition.

Workshops taught include 'collaboration' at a Conservatoire for Dance and Drama workshop, as well as workshops on 'Creating Character from the Outside In' and 'Actioning Text' at OUDS (Oxford University Dramatic Society).

I have taught Stage Combat at LAMDA and Guildhall, and have assisted at ALRA, MTA and the Summer School course at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.

Teaching public speaking, I have prepared students through instruction with breathing techniques, vocal warm ups, accent reduction and relaxation methods for dinner and wedding speeches as well as for LAMDA Exams.

- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?

Yes, I have an up-to-date DBS Certificate.

- Where and with whom did you train?

I trained at the London Academy of Dramatic Art (LAMDA) on the three year BA (Hons) in Acting.

- Do you belong to any professional organisations?

Equity.
British Academy of Dramatic Combat (BADC).
