What other Actors have said about Voice Acting Courses in Glasgow @ Acting Coach Scotland
“Absolutely brilliant experience. Having some looked at voice acting a little before I knew I wanted to explore that more, I had heard good things about ACS so when I saw they were offering a Voice Acting course I decided to go for it. One of the best decisions I have ever made. Nick and Jake were fantastic, we were up on our feet very quickly from day one and everyone was given proper time, feedback and effective encouragement the whole way through. I learnt so much and it has really grown my confidence, even in just 5 relatively short sessions. If you're considering it I would 100% recommend, I just wish I could do it all again!”
