SOME STUDENT ACCOLADES:
I absolutely enjoyed being a student in your class today. I walked away with more knowledge about the business end of acting and learned new elements about the craft. Thank you for your energy. I look forward to participating in your other classes.
Regards,
Arlene Sparaco Colli
Jagger, I just wanted to thank you again for a wonderful class and reception. Your energy inspires me and your commitment to your students and
their success amazes me! In less than one week, I've been made to feel like part of your extended family, which is very reassuring in this, not so
friendly and often times, superficial business. I am absolutely convinced that your lessons and advice will prove invaluable for me very soon. I hope you take some time to yourself, after having given so much to others. You deserve it! Thanks so much!
All my best,
Fabio Taliercio
Jagger
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your class last night. Getting a 360 perspective was invaluable. More often than not, instructors don�t
pay attention to the minute, yet essential details which help the first timer. It�s those �goods� that can make the difference between feeling comfortable, or
not, during what can be a stressful time for the uninitiated.
Best
Debbie Friedlander
Today was terrific. Your classes are always chock full of good stuff, and today was no exception. You not only got fantastic results out of each of us, you
taught us how to "own" that ability. In a way, you took us all behind the magician's curtain, and showed us how to perform the tricks on our own. Amazing.
Mimi Weisbond
Jagger
Your classes are easily the most fun and the most worthwhile acting lessons I've ever taken! The price of course is phenomenal - but really irrelevant. Above all else, the classes are both fun and valuable- a powerful combination! Your unbelievable level of energy- coupled with your perceptive and valuable observations and constructive feedback- tough, necessary but also nurturing- contribute to an atmosphere of learning which just blows away the competition. Other acting classes I've taken were relatively boring, usually with just a minimum time to perform - 5 minutes in a 3 hour class? - and were long on theory, short on execution. (Sometimes there was ALL theory and virtually little time devoted to actually acting.) In your classes we roll up our sleeves and get right to work learning how to become a character and tell the story, there is a maximum time for everyone to perform, which is great!- and when it's time to watch others, your feedback and guidance regarding their performances is so on-the -money (I think you're a f'n genius!) well, watching the other class members work on a scene and then perform has become a tremendously valuable - and very enjoyable learning experience.
Stevenn Beck
Jagger,
I was really impressed by your class today. I've kind of been bragging about it all night! I just re-entered the legit world this fall, and of all the workshops I've taken, I learned the most from yours. I am soooo sold on your classes and excited to be in your Comedic Acting Class now!
You are a sweet, endearing and supportive acting coach who will fight for talent to discover new levels of their character.
Thanks again!
Jewel Elizabeth
Jagger,
What can I say.....I've taken several of your classes and each time I learn something new and worthwhile. Your most recent Comedic Class did wonders for me. You taught me how to 'act' by not acting and to be myself so that my natural talent and personality shine through. Because of your unique teaching, I've been called for more auditions and have had call-backs. I'm now waiting to hear if I got a role in a new Indie film. Thank you Jagger for being there for me, you're the best. You can count on me to take more of your classes and spread the word about you to my friends in the acting community.
Catherine Pierce
Hi Jagger
How do you keep up that incredible energy? This morning I feel like I got hit by a truck. Yesterday took out a lot out energy, (but put back in far more :) It
was fun and exciting, but not without some high anxiety. I am a little shell shocked today, the class stirred up the bees in my emotional hive. I want you to
know that in braving your acting class was just what I needed, and I thank you so much for that. Have a good week, and will see you again on Sunday
D. Mayer
You can be just as happy & excited to be part of a class ... IMAGINE THAT ;)
From ACTORSLIFE
Q - There�s no shortage of acting classes in New York. What should an actor be looking for in a class? How do I know what class is right for me?
A - Well outside of the obvious (what the class teaches), price, class size, hours and the teacher all should be bullet points. Also as stated above, make sure the instructor is someone you feel comfortable working with, just because a peer recommended him/her or he has a known student that does not mean he is a perfect fit for you. Weigh everything out and see which one will give you the biggest �bang for your buck�. I�ll put my bang for the buck against anybody but that does not mean I�ll be the perfect fit for you.In my case go to www.AffordableActingClasses. com and read the testimonials, view the video accolades and go to the FAQ page and after that you will get an idea of what I offer. If you feel it is right for you, than contact me and we can meet. My blue-collar, working class style is not for everyone and I accept that and so should any potential instructor.
From ACTORSCONNECT
Q - What sets you apart from other acting schools?
A - Affordability, the variety of classes offered, the �blue-collar roll up your sleeves� approach and the biggest separation is the fun we have. Go to AffordableActingClasses.com and read �some� of the accolades and look at the video of students discussing our various classes and then and only then look at the affordability � I put our bang for the buck against ANYBODY! What else separates us from other classes/instructors is the fact that in our classes we do not tell you how to act � we help you find the truth and the reality and your own method. I find too many �instructors� have their way to do things and that is it and/or they tell you what to do � there is very little learning when you tell someone what to do, but you see a major difference when you help the actor find it themselves and that is part of what makes our classes unique.Our classes (as mentioned) are FUN. Most people do not realize you can have both fun & work hard. If these classes were not �fun�, I would discontinue ASAP. Also I make sure all students concentrate on their fellow students work (instead of reading their script in class and not paying attention), because you learn so much from watching. I also I become friends with my students and usually after the first week its less of a �teacher-student� relationship and more that I am a �Leader of my peers� & that is how I want it.
From GETTHEPROGRAM
Q - What is affordableactingclasses.com?
A - The best value in teaching in NYC baby! We teach Beginner, Scene, Commercial, On-Camera Audition, Intro To Shakespeare, Monologue & Comedic Acting Classes as well as Coach & have Industry Nights. I suggest visiting the site and seeing our accolades and reviewing our FAQ's & if you think we might be a fit contact us. Hopefully it's a fit and you can see how our approach of "having fun but still working hard" adds to the learning experience & remember the true art is "never let them see you act!"
