Acting tutors help you to become an effective and engaging actor that your audience can relate to. If you have already won an audition and set to perform soon, a private acting coach can also help hone your skills and make sure you deliver your best performance on stage! Here are some of the acting classes you can book through Airtasker:

Classical acting

Professional actors who work in theatre take classical acting lessons to help them become compelling characters on stage. So if you are pursuing a similar field, you are in the right place! For this course, acting teachers focus on enhancing your body movements and speaking and singing voice to embody a role effectively. They also provide training to sharpen your memory since this type of acting requires you to stick with the dialogue and bring to life the exact words and emotions without adlibs. After your classical acting training, expect improvements in your movement, speech delivery, and gestures on stage.

Diction and accent are also vital in professional acting. If you have a strong regional dialect, you can also book elocution classes on our platform to help soften your accent and improve your pronunciation. 

Method acting

Unlike classical acting workshops in which you rely on extensive training to build your role, method acting lessons use real experiences to produce sincere emotions and expressive performances. While this acting technique is prevalent for screen actors, some theatre practitioners are also starting to adopt this method, especially in modern acting schools and acting studios. Most method acting instructors provide techniques on how you can bring out past emotions and memories. You may take part in scripted and improvisation exercises to bring out a truthful voice and realistic movement with courage and confidence. You can practice with your instructor alone, although it is also ideal to work with other aspiring actors.

Comedy acting

If you are keen to join the comedy world, we also have instructors who can perform supportive exercises to develop your satire and comedic movement. You can learn different acting concepts, comedy approaches, and creative methods of interacting with the audience! There may be a lot of games, practice rehearsals, and even comic improvisation with your instructor. At the end of the course, you may learn how to act with natural humour and launch comedic dialogues confidently and at the right timing. 

Both stage and screen actors need to be physically fit to look good and gain the stamina required to complete shows and shooting schedules. Combine your acting class with personal fitness training so you can perform more effectively on stage or in front of the camera!
