“The challenge of starting a career in acting can seem impossible. While there are countless resources for actors looking to learn, this is the first course I've seen with the beginner in mind. Gloria Garayua's Acting For True Beginners Video Series is an excellent resource that introduces its student to the terms and techniques of professional acting. Gloria teaches her students the fundamentals and sets a new actor up with great habits. If you're looking to build a foundation for a professional acting career, this is a great place to start."”
