3 Shakespeare lessons

I had a drama school audition and needed to prepare two Shakespeare pieces. I was looking for someone knowledgeable in Shakespeare, with the ability to dive deep and unpack the deeper meaning of the text. Liesl did an amazing job going through the scenes with me! She helped me understand the meaning of obscure words, unpack complicated wordplay, and really dissect the images that are GOLD when preparing a drama school monologue.

1 Shakespeare lesson

We went over Macbeth by Shakespeare, and she really helped me understand the language, characters, and deeper meaning behind the play. Tara was always super motivated and brought so much energy to every session, which made learning a lot more enjoyable. She explained everything clearly and made sure I really understood before moving on. Thanks to her help, I felt much more confident reading and analyzing Shakespeare. I highly recommend Tara if you need support in English!

You will certainly be lucky to get her. My son, a high school senior, was struggling with the analytical aspect of British Literature/Shakespeare. Jane, who is very knowledgeable about the subject matter, came in and immediately established a positive working relationship with my son, gaining his trust and respect. She was able to tailor her tutoring style to help strengthen his skills in order to assist him in understanding, interpreting and analyzing the complex works of Shakespeare.
