<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I just wanted to write a note of public appreciation for the training I have received from Brian Zoldessy. I have been working with him for several years as a private acting student. After passing the West Virginia screening auditions, I went to SETC in Lexington, KY. There, I received callbacks from 6 graduate programs, including the University of Alabama, and two professional theatre companies. I have also been accepted to the Stella Adler Studio in New York City, the Mlitt/MFA program at Mary Baldwin College, and the apprentice company at the Shakespeare Festival of New Jersey. </div>

<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Brian worked with me extensively on the monologues I used for those auditions, and I largely credit him with my accomplishments thus far. What I enjoy most about his method of teaching is how he trains me to coach myself. By listening to my own evaluations of my performance, and then offering his own input, I can begin to understand for myself how to prepare my pieces. Brian uses the time we have efficiently, and helps me create a battle plan for each audition. Besides working the pieces themselves, he also shares his extensive experience with me. Mental preparation is also part of the training I have received from Brian. I would recommend him to any acting student at any level of training.</div>
