READ MALECIA ADU'S COMMENTS ON TELLY FACES BELOW

"Gaining my TV presenter experience and doing my show reel with Rod Lucas was by far a truly amazing experience. It was an absolute pleasure to spend the day with Rod. He really put a lot of time and effort into the day and was full of ideas and with his help and guidance I managed to put a nice little package together. I really did get a taste of what life would be like as a TV Journalist/presenter and my experience started weeks before we met as I had to do research. 
 
I love his passion for what he does and his straight talking really guided me and gave me a clear understanding of what would be or will be expected from me should I ever be lucky enough to gain a career out of this. What I love about Rods training session is that it really is all about you and the fact that you are outside on location presenting something real. You are not inside with a bunch of other students doing "role play" I felt like a presenter for the day and Rod gave me such confidence and I just absolutely love his way of teaching.
 
I would recommend this course to anybody who is considering getting some show reel. You won't get better than this and the amount that you learn in a day is unbelievable. Rod really put a lot of his time and effort into the day and does his absolute most to help you get the most out of it. He also gave me some really good advice and I love his straight to the point no nonsense approach. He was easy to get along with, fun, entertaining and REAL. I came away thinking it was all a dream."

Having just a pretty face won't make you a TV presenter, you'll need other talents too, including personality. Because TV presenting requires much personal skill we don't think it can be taught as a "group session" so all we do is one to one under the coaching skills of Rod Lucas.
