In a small, safe environment you will see your child’s confidence and courage soar.
Become a confident and effective public speaker & communicator, learn how to inform, persuade and entertain your audience.
My goal is to inspire and guide children and teenagers as they enhance their public speaking, presentation, and acting skills. Through engaging lessons and personalised coaching, I help students build confidence, find their voice, and express themselves with clarity and creativity. The journey is just as important as the results, with an emphasis on growth, enjoyment, and the development of lifelong communication skills. Students also have the opportunity to take part in prestigious examinations with Trinity College London or AMEB, gaining both experience and formal recognition for their achievements.

Private Coaching for Children
I am a dedicated Public Speaking and Voice Coach with a passion for helping students unlock their potential and express themselves with confidence and clarity. With 15+ years of experience in public speaking coaching, I specialise in transforming hesitant speakers into articulate communicators, empowering them to shine in any speaking scenario.
I believe that effective communication is a vital skill that can enhance personal and professional opportunities. My approach combines personalised coaching with practical techniques in vocal training, body language, and speech structure, tailored to meet the unique needs of each student.
Whether students are preparing for a presentation, aiming to improve their public speaking skills, or looking to refine their vocal techniques, I am here to guide them every step of the way.
My work as a Public Speaking and Voice Coach is dedicated to helping students build their confidence and increase their self-esteem. Through personalised coaching, I create a supportive environment where students can explore their unique voices and communication styles. By teaching practical skills in public speaking, vocal techniques, and effective body language, I empower students to overcome anxiety and express themselves authentically.
Each successful presentation and newfound ability fosters a sense of accomplishment, reinforcing their belief in themselves. As they learn to articulate their thoughts and connect with others, their confidence grows, leading to a positive impact on their academic performance and personal development.
Ultimately, my goal is to equip students with the tools they need to thrive both on stage and in everyday interactions.
