Throughout my time, I believe I have grown into a completely different performer from the person I came in as. The course has helped me to understand my strengths but pushed me to work on my weaknesses and I have now evolved to be a confident and well-rounded performer. Finally, I have experienced some incredible opportunities whilst studying such as touring New York and getting to perform in the Netherlands.
