Speech & Drama is an excellent way to improve your self-esteem and build confidence.
Lessons can be tailor made for you, based on your own particular interests and experiences.
We can go at your own or the group's pace,
explore your particular interests and experiences,
to give you a chance to flourish in a safe environment.
Speech and Drama doesn't always have to be about public performance and endless rehearsals.
Lessons can help improve your communication,
release your imagination,
develop useful life skills.
This course gives you an opportunity to explore the ups and downs of everyday life
whilst having fun.
