Belinda won a scholarship to the Arts Educational School and graduated with a diploma in Musical Theatre. She was a founder member of the vocal harmony group Stutz Bear Cats. They appeared in over thirty television shows, including their own half hour special on BBC 2 and as weekly guest artists on the Cannon and Ball Show for ITV. They had their own radio show, ‘Night Music’ (BBC Radio 2) and performed at the Palladium, the Royal Albert Hall and the Royal Festival Hall. Belinda went on to devise and perform her own shows, the first of which was featured on Russell Harty’s Best Of The Fringe, Edinburgh Festival ’85. She was a member of the a cappella singing trio, Vox Humana with whom she appeared at the Capital Radio Music Festival and Battersea Arts Centre.

She has appeared in several television commercials (Canderel, Asda) and has been used as a voice over artist for many companies including the BBC Natural History Unit and Diverse Productions for Channel Four. Having integrated all of her own professional experiences as a performer, it is an absolute passion to share this knowledge and wisdom with the new generation of talent.

Since 1997 Belinda has been coaching students for LAMDA Exams in Acting, Musical Theatre, Verse and Prose and Shakespeare & her students have received excellent results, all of whom have achieved Distinctions & Merits for their work. She has also successfully coached numerous students who have gained places at several top drama schools including, LAMDA, Arts Educational, LIPA, and the Brit School. Some have also been accepted into the National Youth Theatre. She also coaches students for academic school entrance interviews.
LAMDA is the largest Speech and Drama Awarding Body in the United Kingdom. LAMDA Examinations are designed to equip students, whatever their age and aspirations, with a range of skills that will serve them through life. Students can enter for Graded Examinations in Speech: The Speaking of Verse and Prose or Graded Examinations in Drama: Acting (solo/duologue), Shakespeare or Musical Theatre. LAMDA Examinations have an eight grade structure and are part of the National Qualifications framework and Level 3 Medal Exams are included in the UCAS Tariff. Preparation for an examination can: *Unlock the imagination. *Develop memory and communication skills. *Build self-confidence and self-esteem. *Provide the student with an opportunity to receive a recognised certificate of personal achievement. *Be particularly useful for students taking GCSE and A Level Drama. For the exams, the students have to memorise and perform two contrasting pieces. Belinda works with her students on a private, one to one weekly basis, which takes place over a ten week term. For Grades 1-5 a half-hour session a week is recommended. Students who take Medal exams Grades 6-8, or working towards Drama School entry would be required to commit to 45 minutes - 1 hour a week.

Perfect! Belinda has been teaching my 6 yo for more than one year and it has been amazing to see how my son came out from himself of being someone who’s really shy. We are so lucky to have found Belinda as she’s so experienced, knowledgeable and absolutely brilliant with engaging with children. My son loves attending his weekly lessons with Belinda so much. He has just finished his first entry exam and has been looking forward to do the next level. Thank you Belinda x

Belinda has provided excellent LAMDA exam tuition and support for both my son and daughter, guiding them through solo acting medals from grade 1 through to Gold medal and Shakespeare Grade 5, achieving the highest standard of results across all grades. My son did not take Drama GCSE or A Level and yet with her support and guidance earned a place on the LAMDA foundation course. My daughter has been under Belinda's guidance since she was 11 and has attained professional acting roles on screen and stage plus was offered places at BRIT School and Arts Ed at Sixth form which was helped by Belinda's prep on audition pieces- she is currently applying for Drama schools at Degree level, again with Belinda’s support. I would highly recommend Belinda for LAMDA tuition - She works at a very high standard but also suggests and manages exceptions very much appropriate to age, experience and individual strengths of the child.
Belinda has been an outstanding coach to my daughter, Izzy, for the past six years. Under Belinda's guidance, Izzy has not only successfully completed multiple LAMDA levels but has consistently achieved Distinctions in all of them. As Izzy prepares to complete her GOLD qualification this academic year, she remains confident that the invaluable skills and techniques imparted by Belinda will continue to provide her with the strong foundation that has served her exceptionally well in the past.
Izzy consistently approaches her sessions with Belinda with great enthusiasm, making it the one extracurricular activity she has unwaveringly wanted to pursue. Belinda's support, encouragement, and her keen understanding of the unique strengths of each of her pupils have been instrumental in Izzy's growth and success.I worked with Belinda on LAMDA Acting exams from Grade 3 to Grade 8, (age 13 to 18). She helped me achieve very high Distinctions on all my exams and it was an absolute pleasure to be taught by her! Belinda is a wonderful acting coach. She is very attentive to detail and has a nurturing, encouraging and uplifting style of teaching which I greatly appreciate. She gives her students the confidence they need and is able to pull out the absolute best performances from them! I’ve known Belinda for 14 years now and she continues to be a wonderful mentor figure in my life. My passion for acting began to really take shape through Belinda’s coaching when I met her all those years ago. I really owe all my confidence and zest for acting in those formative years, to her, and the belief and encouragement she instilled in me. Can’t recommend her enough!
I worked with Belinda a few years ago to train me as a LAMDA coach.
She has a really beautiful approach and a kind nurturing energy when working with kids, which really inspired me with my own teaching.
She is a teacher I would highly recommend, as she has a wonderful reputation as well as her professional experience.View more recommendations
