Homework
1-2 hours per week. Students are given a song to learn during the week by the teacher. The student should enter the classroom having practiced and learned this song on their own. We will take the class time to work on the song and make it better. A karaoke video with lyrics will be given to the student so we work on the same version of the song.Assessment
The teacher will give specific feedback to the student on things that need to be worked on. The teacher will also focus on giving positive feedback to encourage the student and build their confidence.Class Experience
The student will join Broadway performer and Teacher Billy as he leads him through all of the skills needed to be successful in theatre! This class is only 25 minutes, but intense and filled with lots of homework for your child to complete. Subjects worked on: - Acting - Singing - Vocal health Students will know: - how to take care of their voice so it is healthy. - what to do with your voice when it is sick or tired. - how to properly take care of your body so it is ready to perform. - learn proper vocal techniques, that work! - different dance movements to help the student perform better with their whole body. (this is not a dance technique class) - learn new music each week. ***PLEASE NOTE: Homework will be given and this is extremely important for your child to become successful. Your child will be given: - Exercises - Warmup methods - Songs (picked specifically for them and their voice type) Please, please, please help me make sure your child does their homework so together they can become an OUTSTANDING singer and performer! ---------------------------------

Hey there! I’m Billy, your child’s creative adventure buddy! Every week, I work to create a fun and supportive space where your child can look forward to learning and growing. I make sure each class is an exciting, safe environment where they can express themselves, make new friends, and build confidence through art.
For over 12 years, I’ve traveled the globe, soaking up vibrant cultures and creative experiences. I’m currently living in Egypt, where I’ve been for 7 years, teaching and inspiring young minds from all over the world.
With 30+ years of experience as an actor, singer, director, and choreographer, I’ve had the chance to teach the kids of movie stars! But my heart belongs to helping kids express themselves through drawing.
I’ve had the privilege of studying animation and storytelling with some of the best in the business—Disney, Nickelodeon, and DreamWorks. Through internships and collaborations, I’ve learned the magic of creating characters, telling stories, and designing visually compelling art, and I bring those lessons into my classes, helping students unlock their own creativity.
I’ve proudly taught on Outschool for over 4 years, and I’m honored to be recognized as a top teaching contributor. My classes blend artistic skills with storytelling, turning each lesson into an adventure. My students have gone on to shine on Broadway, star in TV shows, and become amazing artists themselves!
I hold a Bachelor’s in Performing Arts/Dance and a Master’s in Education. My teaching philosophy? Spark imagination, make learning fun, and encourage kids to grow in confidence and creativity.
I’m so proud of my students and can’t wait to bring that same energy to your child’s creative journey! Let’s explore the world of art together as part of the OUTSCHOOL family!
