Working with Amanda has been a wonderful experience. I felt lost before I started taking lessons. Moving at a pace catered to my learning style, Amanda has managed to break things down in a clear and concise manner. She is encouraging, patient, and straightforward which I really appreciate and I’ve seen much improvement in my work. I really look forward to our sessions and I feel my confidence expanding more and more. I’m incredibly thankful for her help and I’m looking forward for what is to come.

I hired Amanda to help me with a wedding speech and she couldn’t have been a better speech. Not only she taught a few exercises and helped boost my confidence, but she also helped with the speech itself quite a bit so it fit better my character. Amanda, it was a pleasure working with you - it went much between than I expected!!
