About Ann
I am a highly motivated speech and drama tutor with 40 years of experience in coaching vocal technique within the arts, business, and education arenas. My areas of expertise include developing correct vocal technique to support public speaking, development of performance skills, and general communication. Within these areas I am able to help you pinpoint and refine skills - for example, in public speaking we can look at speech delivery, interviews, and confidence within oneself; within performance skills I can help with acting, drama, and exam and audition preparation; and within communication areas covered can include correct sound formation which will help with elocution and accent reduction, and developing vocal variety. If there are aspects of your voice that are problematic or you are not happy with how you sound, I can help you to achieve improvements through the utilisation of exercises that will focus on the targeted area. All lessons - no matter what the subject matter - will include body de-stressing, expanding and correcting breath support, muscular support of articulation, and development of vocal timbre. All of this will enable students to connect with their mind and body, which in turn will help them to ensure that their voice becomes an extension of who they are.

Ann is a professional but friendly coach. She is extremely knowledgeable, creative and versatile.
She was my Speech&Drama teacher for a few years and has prepared me for exams and festivals, building my confidence and extending my abilities with her suggestions.
I would highly recommend!Ann is a knowledgeable, fun & caring tutor. I really enjoyed my time learning with her and I found that the skills gained were easily transferable into other areas of work too (for example, acting, singing and presenting). Highly recommended!
Professional Actor and Voice Over Artist - Having worked with Ann for a number of years, I learnt so much that I still find myself going over her lessons today. Her professionalism was matched equally by her compassion, patience and Love for her students and what they are capable of. Through her guidance, I went from a strong silent young adult who grunted and mumbled, to an assertive, confident man who literally makes money selling his voice and public speaking ability. Public speaking is an ESSENTIAL skill to a fulfilling life/career and anyone would be blessed to have Ann as a mentor!
I initially approached Ann on the recommendation of a friend as being in the military I felt that I wasn't utilising my voice enough when having to take command in outside settings. I had a basic knowledge of voice and breath after having been involved with theatre and drama in my younger years, but Ann made sure to go over it all with me and ensure my understanding before we moved on to new exercises. Ann possesses a great knowledge of her subject and was very quickly able to identify problem areas and suggest exercises to help. If a certain exercise wasn't working, or I couldn't understand it fully, she would always come up with alternatives. Ann was very patient and understanding throughout, offering encouragement and lots of suggestions - she even helped with public speaking. I would highly recommend Ann.
Ann has been my voice coach for the last three years whilst being apart of a drama school. Whilst having Ann as a teacher I have nothing but amazing memories. Ann is amazing and supportive teacher in every way possible. And has helped me improve my voice massively, working with my tone, diaphragm and even accents. She truly is a great and lovely teacher to have.
I would highly recommend Ann as a tutor for anyone requiring vocal/speaking lessons after having tuition for three years at the Birmingham Theatre School. Ann is a lovely, trusting lady who really helps build your confidence through her support, kindness and expertise knowledge. Every lesson with Ann is always fun and if you put in the work you can progress so quickly with her help, she really does take the time to help each student learn about their vocals and how to reach their potential. I could not recommend her enough.
I initially approached Ann after a recommendation from a friend, as being in the military I felt that I wasn't utilising my voice fully when taking command in outdoor settings. I had a basic knowledge of the voice and breath as had been involved with theatre and drama in my early days, but Ann ensured that she ran through all the basics with me again to so that the foundations were solid. Ann is a friendly and understanding teacher - with a vast knowledge of her subject - and was quickly able to identify problem areas and give me relevant exercises to work on. If I didn't understand an exercise, or it wasn't working, Ann would present me with alternatives. Ann was patient throughout, always suggesting areas for improvement, and offering guidance in other areas so that I left feeling like I had a well rounded understanding of what I needed to do. I would highly recommend Ann.
