About Charles
Hello! My name is Charles.
I'm a professional actor and LAMDA coach offering structured tuition for students aged 7–16, from Introductory level through to Grade 8, including medal examinations.
My training combines practical industry experience with a clear understanding of LAMDA assessment criteria and performance standards.
I have worked across screen and stage, including credits with major platforms and theatre productions (Netflix, Sky, The Old Vic), and bring that professional insight into every lesson.
I specialise in:
• LAMDA Acting Exams (Introductory – Grade 8)
• Medal Exam Preparation
• Audition & Monologue Coaching
• Public Speaking & Interview Technique
My approach is supportive but focused. Students are encouraged to develop strong vocal technique, clear interpretation and confident performance skills, while working towards structured, measurable progress.
Whether preparing for an exam, audition, or simply aiming to develop confidence and communication skills, sessions are tailored to each student’s level and goals.
I am DBS checked and teach both in-person (Buckhurst Hill, Essex) and online.

Lessons are structured, focused and tailored to each student’s level and goals.
For students preparing for LAMDA exams, sessions follow a clear progression aligned with examiner criteria.
We work on text selection, character interpretation, vocal clarity, physical presence and performance technique, ensuring students understand both the creative and technical aspects of their pieces.
A typical lesson may include:
• Vocal and articulation exercises
• Text analysis and intention work
• Character development and physical choices
• Performance refinement and detailed feedback
• Mock exam practice where appropriate
For medal exams and higher grades, sessions place greater emphasis on interpretation, independent thinking and polished performance standards.
For younger students or those building confidence, lessons remain structured but supportive, focusing on clear communication, expression and enjoyment of performance.
Each student receives guidance appropriate to their age and experience, with steady progression and measurable development over time.
Online and in-person lessons are available.

Charles has been tremendously helpful in my acting journey, not only by guiding me through the craft with effective and engaging techniques, but also by helping me unlock a new sense of confidence in myself. He is warm, kind, and genuine, but most of all: very professional, always working alongside you to help you achieve your goals. It’s always a pleasure to learn from him!
I directed Charles as the lead in a feature film. This was a 13 day shoot, independently produced, shot on location, sometimes on the fly and featuring a real rave. Charles adapted his performance to each environment with a fearlessness that all great actors must possess.
As a leading man, Charles attracts the camera. His command of the close up is astonishing. He engages and emotes effortlessly. I’ve never shot so many close ups before. Charles’ performance is naturalistic with extremes. He can switch on the darkness, but there’s also romance. Collaboration was key. Charles and I discussed backstory. Workshopped and rehearsed. There was some improvisation, developed over time. This was the last scene we shot- in a park, at night. It was freezing cold. It’s an eight page scene, shot almost entirely in close up. Charles’ breath is real. Fearlessness.
Charles is a star. Let him share this gift.Charles is a dedicated and disciplined actor, and teacher. He has excellent timekeeping and a loyalty to his students.
Coupled with this, his passion for helping others achieve their best in auditions and exams, makes it very easy for me to recommend him on Superprof.Charles is a wonderful tutor.

Charles is such a great coach! He makes every session fun, relaxed, and super helpful. I’ve learned so much about how to connect with characters and feel more confident in my performances. He gives honest, encouraging feedback and really cares about helping you grow.
Charles really helped my daughter with her audition preparation. He understands the pressures this whole process brings. He was calm, knowledgable, and gave great direction in bringing more depth to her pieces. She really appreciated his help in securing some new appropriate and suitable pieces to rehearse. I fully recommend him to anyone wanting useful and intelligent mentoring. Thank you Charles!
Charles has been a truly fantastic acting tutor, especially when it came to helping me navigate both my confidence challenges and the often daunting audition process. He has a real knack for creating a supportive and comfortable learning environment, where anxieties are acknowledged and addressed through practical exercises, insightful guidance, and targeted audition techniques. He possesses all the key qualities of an excellent tutor: patience, empathy, and a genuine passion for his craft. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend Charles to anyone looking to enhance their acting skills, particularly those facing the pressures of auditions :)
