Stephen Mitchell is a great teacher for me.
He is
intelligent, insightful and perceptive, as well as generous and patient
with a great sense of humor. Add to these great qualities that he is full of
experiences and knowledge of how to be a great actor and how to
maneuver in this business. I feel so grateful to have found him as my
teacher!
For such a green person in this media business of
being an actress is quite challenging. I know talent gets me to the
first meeting or audition. I was going in with a feeling of trepidation
and not knowing what to do to best show I can get the job done. I knew I
needed professional directions. Now with only three individual
sessions, I feel I can perform like an actress with some legitimate
schooling, with some know-how.
Stephen's non-judgmental personality gets right
into teaching me the mechanics of how to perform right away from the
first class. I only recently got into acting because I was approached by
casting agents so this is a brand new world to me. I was stunned it
only took him about 10 minutes to come up with a branding statement for
me as an actress. He was able see what I have been trying to convey to
others, the kind of actress I'm most capable of being.
In the next few minutes he even crafted from scratch a monologue! That's a seasoned professional I'd say.
I am so happy my teacher cares about my acting career!
