Actor/writer/director with 25 years experience coaching Presentation Skills and Interview Practice to Adults, face-to-face.

I have known David for 40 years plus, as a friend, a colleague and a fellow coach.
He is professional, patient, person focused and extremely insightful. He will draw on his training as an actor to help develop your vocal and communication skills and his years of experience as coach to build your confidence and presence. I would not hesitate in recommending him, in fact I have done so to a number of students, each of them has benefitted from his careful, supportive and considered approach.

I have known David for more than 40 years as a friend but he has also coached me for work interviews. David is a very professional, reliable and trustworthy person and I would have no hesitation recommending him for coaching in public speaking or presentation and interview preparation. He is very good at understanding the requirements of the task and working with individuals to identify their strengths and weaknesses then coaching them to ensure they come across effectively and positively.

I was mentored by David in preparation for an interview, and gained tons of insight throughout the experience that I will continue to take with me for the foreseeable future, thanks to his hands-on coaching style and iterative, practice-based approach to developing public speaking skills.

He's a seasoned professional with tons of anecdotal experience to bring home his points, and provided personalised advice, helping me work around my ADHD and anxiety when it comes to public speaking, which I found truly invaluable.

I couldn't recommend him more!

David is an excellent and caring tutor. I was really nervous about applying for a course which included an element of speaking to a large group, and David’s lessons gave me the confidence to apply and be successful. His intuition meant he could quickly sense where some of my blocks were and help me work through them. I would recommend David to anyone wanting to build confidence and skills for public presentations.
