MEMORABLE FEEDBACK
from PARENTS & STUDENTS!

“I remember how caring Judy Berlin is toward her students and her impeccable eye for talent. I attended TV 1 and 2. Attending your school was one of my smartest moves. Dustin Pearson (Age 19) San Francisco

“Through esteem building and a well thought out curriculum Kids on Camera teaches their students that they too can overcome their self doubts and accomplish many goals while projecting a confident image of themselves."
Robyn King, Antioch

“I was very impressed with Judy Berlin’s passion as she worked with her students. I agreed with her methods and philosophy of teaching! It's a true win-win for everybody! We don't see enough that in the world today! All the "greats" that I have ever worked with have been people who radiate great kindness to others! Judy is a true professional who loves her work! My 7 yr old daughter wanted to attend. Thank you for a wonderful experience.”
Andy Arness, Sunnyvale

“Programs involving acting can be dodgy and every child is a "future star" and no assessment is honest. However, Judy Berlin and her staff knows what they are doing, knows talent when they see it and are honest in their assessments. Judy is really about teaching and creating a fun experience.”
Ms. Marsha Cohen, Hastings College of Law, San Francisco

“What a blessing your program has been for my 13 year old daughter. Kids-on-Camera is truly an extra curricular activity that has provided her with a stress release and not an additional burden. I appreciate your sensitive staff, unique curriculum, and honesty.
Mrs. Suzanne Batmale, Larkspur, CA

“Our 5 year old, Catrin, has improved her oral language skills and confidence since we began attending Kids on Camera. After she completed TV Acting 1 her teachers noticed improvements.”
Mrs. Logutova, San Francisco

“Having had two children attend, I wanted to share that Judy and her staff runs a fantastic program and the kids really have fun, gain confidence, develop TV and film acting and audition skills that will be helpful in whatever they decide to do.”
Judy Freeman, East Bay, GYMBOREE Executive
