Speak Easily's Coaches

Our Coaches' Qualifications

Our coaches are all qualified with MAs in Voice Studies from the Central School of Speech and Drama, London (PG Diplomas if qualified before 1998, as the course changed its title then). Most of the leading voice coaches in the world have been trained on this course. It is one of the only professional qualifications in voice teaching found worldwide. We pride ourselves on employing the 'creme de la creme' of Central's voice coaching graduates.

Our coaches bring a wealth of their own experience, creativity and expertise to their coaching and are positive, friendly, intelligent people who are a pleasure to spend time with.
