The Newson Academy makes learning fun, in a safe environment, but please do not just take our words, see what others are saying!
My daughter has really enjoyed ‘Drama’ since she started in November 08. Many an occasion the class has been a great threat for good behaviour; ‘if you are naughty you won’t go to drama this Saturday’ is generally followed by ‘but I want to go to drama Mummy’. The recent showcase event was a great way to see just how much Georgie seemed both confident and to enjoy herself – the big grin on her face throughout said it all. I even felt that her confidence had increased since the Christmas stage show. Sometimes I wonder if my 3yr old (going on 13yr old fast) daughter needs too much more confidence but it is certainly a worthy attribute through out life – and one which I feel the Newson Academy enhances.
Many thanks Jo Anne and Charlotte.

When I first started with Joanne, I had little knowledge of Drama. She gave me direction, and understanding. Joanne makes learning enjoyable and easy, her teaching methods are creative and practical.
Miss S of Woking (private pupil)
Joanne came into our school to give an afternoon workshop. This was a huge success, with Joanne encouraging full participation from all our students. Indeed, so successful and productive was the drama input, we have decided to expand our courses, and working in collaboration with Joanne, will run several more drama programmes.
We feel the benefits in confidence; self belief and fluency are immense.
Mrs J Pilkington, Principal Harven School of English, Woking
Joanne has the potential of greater things with this drama school.
More children should sign up and take drama classes.
Not only are they vital in a child's education, social life and keen interest in the theatre arts but they are also enjoyable!'

My daughter really enjoys her Saturday morning drama class – thank you
Mrs W of Addlestone
My husband was very impressed with what the children did this morning’s Saturday class and very proud of our daughter. Having said that, our daughter was very proud of herself! She has had a big smile on her face all afternoon.
Her confidence has grown since attending your drama classes
