Speaking with France’s is like a breath of fresh air. She’s eager to help with issues that I had and once I told her I knew she had experience with what I had trouble with. Expressing how she tackled it, step by step, just makes me appreciate her as an instructor. I’m excited to have her help moving forward!

I've only worked with Frances a short time to help me improve my public speaking, but so far I've learned a lot and have had a blast doing it! Five stars!

I love working with Frances Saxton! She was so quick to know what I needed as an actor and how to approach lessons with me in a way I’d understand. After just one lesson, I felt like I understood more than in my college acting classes. I look forward to learning more!

Im very new to the acting, and the entire experience. She was very quick to get back to me and reassure me of any insecurities I might have. If you’re looking for someone who takes their job seriously, and invests in you. She’s definitely the coach for you! I’m very excited for our upcoming lessons.
