In this interactive class, students will learn from a professional actor how to use different feelings to bring a performance to life. First, we will discuss feelings and why they are important. After a short warm-up, we'll have fun expressing different emotions through a series of acting games and exercises. Finally, the student actors will perform short improvisations to show off what they have learned. It's bound to be an emotive time! The class concludes with a unifying game. All exercises are modeled for the student and self-expression is encouraged!

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Hello! I'm Cherita Armstrong. I am a professional actor from New York City. I use acting techniques as a vehicle for young people to increase their presentation and communication skills as well as encourage their overall self-expression. It's quite wonderful to see how students blossom in a short amount of time. I will be teaching Acting Skills and Public Speaking.
I have over 10 years of teaching experience. For over 7 years I worked as a teaching artist in the New York City public schools. As a teaching artist, I taught acting, reading and writing skills, poetry performance, and public speaking. I worked with history teachers to create short theatrical scenes that reinforced what the students were learning. I have also directed after-school drama programs for middle school students. I have worked with primary school children teaching letters and numbers via storytelling. I have taught ESL online to children 4-16.years of age. I'm also an audition coach for kids.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Speech Communications/Dramatic Arts with a minor in Theatre from Utica College of Syracuse University. As a professional actor, I have worked at NY and regional theatres, on network television shows, films, and commercials.
Learning acting techniques can help in building a child's confidence as they learn communication and presentation skills that will last a lifetime. I believe in creating a fun and encouraging environment so they can flourish! When I am not teaching or performing I love reading a good book, yoga, hiking, thrift shopping, and eating guacamole!
I am also the author of OUT OF THE BOX FUN. 25 Creative Activities To Help You Connect With Your Young People.
