Teaching experience: I have been teaching for over 10 years. I have taught kids acting classes in New York City at LREI,
P.S. 3, Berkley Carroll, and C.A.S.T (Children's Acting Space Tribeca). I coach adults in the Birth a Book program, helping new writers give book readings and speeches. I've taught private classes online for all ages. I hold a B.A. in Theater and Education Studies from The New School.
Price: 30 minute for $50 / 1 hr for $90

Testimonials:
Jessy's classes really teach children the fundamentals of acting which are fundamentals for life. She teaches my children to observe carefully emotions and the world around them, to later use in scenes. She encourages my children to be silly and loud and quiet and different, allowing them to tap into, own, and expand their creativity. And she builds their confidence, both from helping them speak more confidently, but also by the way she encourages them. She responds to their efforts with genuine enthusiasm and admiration. After working with her, my children like themselves better and believe in themselves more. Jessy teaches acting, but also so much more!" - Cindy C.
"I'm not sure how I would've done my first public speech without your coaching! You helped me to feel comfortable and confident. Thank you for being a great motivator!" - Chisa L.
"Jessy is an amazing teacher, talented actress and is absolutely fantastic with young children. She is a nurturing, kind teacher who adores children. Jessy encourages creativity while stimulating your child's active imagination."
