Perfect! Lorna Brown is a fantastic teacher who truly tailored her teaching to my circumstances as a mature student. This helped me prepare successfully for a number of U.K. drama school auditions where I received offers to attend postgraduate acting programmes. This also gave me the confidence to setup a not-for-profit acting company during the peak of the COVID-19 lockdown, which provided new talent with a virtual platform to showcase their artistic prowess when in-person performances were not possible. Additionally, working with Lorna also helped me professionally by honing my communication skills in a business setting. Aside from all that, I found Lorna to be a wonderful person to work with. She is personable, honest, and encouraging in her coaching style. I would recommend Lorna to anyone thinking or taking acting and/or professional communication coaching classes as she is the best.

Lorna is an excellent teacher. Her warm, understanding and reassuring approach has given me a safe environment to explore and develop myself as an artist. My time with Lorna completely transformed my acting.I have had multiple offers at top drama schools this year. I hope to continue working with Lorna for years to come and feel very lucky and proud to call her my mentor.
In the year or so that I've been seeing Lorna I went from being somebody with no training or confidence, only a desire to act and a feeling that I might be able to, to being accepted at RADA. I'm quite sure that I would never have done this had I not found her. Lorna is a natural teacher in that she knows when to push you to the very limits of what you're capable of (and she will!) and when to support you.
What I love most about Lorna's lessons is the fact that whilst she is a consummate professional and expert on the physical and technical aspects of singing, she also deals with the singer as a whole the spiritual, mental and the emotional being. Lorna's lessons gave me deeper insight into myself and pushed me physically and emotionally beyond anywhere I'd been before! Thank you so much Lorna
Lorna is the most inspiring, encouraging and talented teacher I have ever had. I found that Lorna really took the time to understand me as both a person and as an actress. Not only has she encouraged my strengths, she has also challenged me in my weaknesses, finding keys to unlock any creative blocks I have in my work. Since having lessons with Lorna, I feel much more confident in my abilities.I will continue having lessons with her for many years to come!!
