ENDORSEMENTS

"It is my pleasure to recommend ACT2 to all students who are seeking to pass the LAMDA exams. My daughter Ela had a wonderful experience while preparing for her LAMDA exams. She has had first-hand experience working with Valerie and Marshall (who is also the owner of ACT2). These teachers are licensed and certified to teach their subjects and in addition have completed official LAMDA training. I can promise you that the teachers are of extraordinary talent and dedication. ACT2 teachers set high, but not unreasonable, standards for their students and then give them the tools to succeed" - (2021-2024).

“Marshall really opens your eyes to the processes and skills necessary to perform at the highest level – and helps you get there. With each lesson you gain new insights, whether on how to analyze a text or delve deeply into the inner thoughts and passions of a given character. He encourages you to confidently explore different situations and reactions, to continually grow as an actor. The contexts may vary from contemporary writers to Shakespeare classics but always the lessons are enjoyable as they are challenging. With his dedicated and professional approach, I have been able to reach distinction in all my exams. But more than that, more than the deep insights, I have gained a real love of acting.”  - (2019-2024)
