MEMORABLE FEEDBACK
from PARENTS & STUDENTS!
Building your child's independence and seeing them succeed is the greatest gift.
Thank you for helping children become all they can be.
Mrs. Jill Plumb, Woodland, CA
My daughter, Tia, (13) has taken a lot of acting classes, but Kids on Camera has taught her more about acting than all of them combined. Your program has been the best thing for Tia. She is so happy with all the positive feedback she's been getting lately. Her confidence in her acting ability is growing by leaps and bounds. David Rosenthal is an amazing coach. He saw the potential in her and has really drawn it out of her. Thank you. Jodie Vashistha, Pleasanton
Programs involving acting can be dodgy and every child is a "future star" and no assessment is honest. However, Judy and her staff are honest in their assessments and focused on teaching and creating a fun and educational experience.
Ms. Marsha Cohen, Hastings College of Law, San Francisco
What I learned from you helped me succeed in TV news. I was a news anchor in Sacramento, then New York and now I am in Los Angeles. I credit your program with making me a comfortable communicator. What you teach is worthwhile and unique!
Mr. Chris Burrous, News Anchor, Los Angeles, KTLA, CH. 5 |
