I love working with Frances Saxton! She was so quick to know what I needed as an actor and how to approach lessons with me in a way I’d understand. After just one lesson, I felt like I understood more than in my college acting classes. I look forward to learning more!

Im very new to the acting, and the entire experience. She was very quick to get back to me and reassure me of any insecurities I might have. If you’re looking for someone who takes their job seriously, and invests in you. She’s definitely the coach for you! I’m very excited for our upcoming lessons.
