Acting teaches confidence, empathy, creativity, teamwork, listening skills, and much more! In this class, we will play fun theater games, learn how to train our voices for the stage, learn how to move expressively to play a character, and learn some of the basic techniques of acting. There will also be some scene work with no memorization required. Every day, we will begin by "checking in": sharing how we're feeling mentally, physically, and emotionally. We will complete a vocal and physical warm-up every day, then turn to our main lesson of the day. We will finish each class with at least one theater game. Week One: How to Move Expressively Week Two: How to Speak Expressively Week Three: ROOTS/How to Think Like an Actor Week Four: Character Work Week Five: Scene Work Week Six: Scene Work Week Seven: Performance of Scene Work I have been a professional actor and theater teacher for many years, and I specialize in children's theater. I am a kind, patient, and encouraging teacher. I have a lot of experience with shy students, as well as with students with a lot of energy. Through this class, students will learn to trust themselves and follow their impulses. They will be expected to treat their fellow classmates with respect. Listening is a huge part of acting, and students will be expected to listen to their classmates and work as a team. No previous theater experience is required! This class is designed as an after-school or weekend class, or a weekday class for homeschoolers.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Hello!
My name is Maura, and I'm an actor, musician, poet, and teacher. I have been teaching and tutoring for fifteen years. I'm always excited to share what I've learned with my students!
I graduated summa cum laude from Carthage College with degrees in Music and Theater Performance, and have been performing professionally as an actor and musician. I regularly perform with a children's theater that teaches kids about conservation!
I am also a published poet, and a professional ghostwriter and freelance book editor. As a huge nerd, I have read and am currently reading countless books, and I have an in-depth knowledge of plot creation and good literary structure.
I also teach life skills, particularly cultivating motivation and dealing with overwhelming or negative emotions. I was home-schooled until college, and I am an extremely self-motivated person, as well as a problem-solver. As a highly sensitive person, I have to deal with stress often and have discovered numerous ways to deal with the inevitable tensions that life brings to us! I learned to be a positive person in high school, and I love teaching students ways to appreciate what is good even in the midst of negative situations.
I am a very kind, patient, and encouraging teacher. I do well with both quiet and energetic students. My approach is question based, and I not only teach my students new information, I teach them how to arrive at valuable conclusions themselves. I use time efficiently, and am well prepared for every lesson I teach. I was homeschooled through high school, and I have a lot of respect for homeschooling parents and students.
I hope to see you virtually soon!
Maura
