About James
Accents are the first thing that separates you from others when you walk through that door to introduce yourself. In 5 seconds, a prospective employer/client will form an opinion about where you are from, your education level, and your social background. In order to reduce the chances of you being perceived in a negative way, it is essential to present yourself in the best way possible! That's where I come in... I am a professional actor and master of law graduate who wants to give you confidence in your ability to present yourself. I understand that public speaking and elocution pose challenges to some and I want to be able to help you perfect your natural gifts to excel in whatever performance that you give. Let's have a chat, and see how I can help you achieve your goals!

Perfect! It is difficult to put into words how much James has helped me.
He has an understanding of his students backgrounds challenges and eductational needs which is difficult to come by.
I am delighted he took me on as a student at very short notice.
If I have to score myself I would say I improved 100% in the first week and it is more evident in interactions I have both at a Personal and professional level and I am developing skills and habits that will lifelong.
I cannot recommend him highly enough.- Uche is a very determined student and it was a pleasure to teach him! I am very much looking forward to working with him as I know he will improve very quickly!James's response :
Perfect! It’s been an utter pleasure to work with James - his lesson was fun, productive, and practical all at once. James is such an enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher that his presence can be felt right across the screen even though we met online. His patient encouragements are great for moments when you’re struggling, couple that with his extensive feedback and it’s an ideal combination for making anyone as confident and articulate a public speaker as they can be. I’ve enjoyed and benefitted from his teaching, and I hope to see more of him in the future!
Perfect! Great stuff! James is excellent, he has helped me identify the areas where I have the most problems with and he's provided me with material like poems and story telling to read out Loud so to pinpoint words and the flow of my speach. I will be working on these until I see him again which I will be booking in the near future for more sessions.
- Mark is an enthusiastic student who is collaborative and keen on improving himself. A pleasure to get to know and to teach!James's response :

Recommendations

I met James through another friend who recommended his service, and I could not have found a better teacher to improve my public speaking skills! James made me feel comfortable during all our classes, I always felt motivated and supported by him and never judged which was important to me. He is very friendly and funny so the lessons are also very enjoyable. I feel like I improved so much in my abilities to speak in public since my classes with James so I can only recommend him:)
As a Phd student with English not as my first language, James has helped me immensely with my pronunciation and presentation skills. I have seen the change in my confidence to speak to large audiences and am very grateful for his help. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!
James is an extremely reliable tutor. He has helped me tremendously with my English as I have a strong Scottish accent and I am now much clearer when talking to others. I was able to gain a thorough understanding of what I specifically needed to work on. I was also given very extensive advice as well as feedback towards anything I felt that needed addressing towards.
James has helped me significantly, I had to pitch my children’s book and whilst I had all the ideas, my delivery was simply awful. With practice and guidance from James he taught me how to make sure my speech was effective and with intent whilst also help build my confidence of speaking to a room of strangers who could potentially make or break something really important to me.
James has been very helpful in my learning journey as he was a very thought provoking teacher. His lessons have given me the confidence which I needed to tackle my work-related challenges!
There is no one I trust more than James when it comes to help with auditions and improving on my performance! James genuinely cares about his students, and goes above and beyond. If you want to gain confidence and add edge to your performance or want help with public speaking, James is your man! I highly recommend him :)
James is an excellent tutor! I worked with him during my preparation for pupillage interviews, our sessions gave me confidence and instilled flair and originality into my advocacy. I highly recommend him for those wishing to improve their public speaking skills!
Recently I had to present a large to key partners at work ( a large consulting firm).
Whilst confident in my knowledge I had always struggled to articulate in a concise and confident manner. After a few sessions with James , I felt more prepared than I have ever been , and delivered possibly the best presentation of my life . James has a friendly and easy going nature but really knows his stuff , and I felt at ease explaining I had to him, before he discussed his plan to address some of my weakness . 5/5 would recommend to anyone.James is a charismatic individual with an extensive experience in delivering passionate speeches and sound arguments. His experience as a lawyer has taught him how to successfully present and develop clear arguments. His role at the Debate Society at the University of Manchester has demonstrated just that. As a professional actor, James knows how to maintain a certain image and get the correct emotion across the board. The combination of these two worlds allow James to be in a uniquely privileged position when it comes to social interactions, public speaking and more. I, myself, have benefited from being around James and am lucky to be able to call him a friend. With that being said, I highly recommend getting in touch with James. The insights he can provide to his students are second to none.
