"Katherine is absolutely amazing with the children and so friendly and enthusiastic. Itβs clear she is very passionate and that resonates with her students. My daughter has had a fabulous term taking part in a musical theatre class. Itβs a warm and welcoming environment and she is looking forward to next term already! xxx"

"Katherine has been working with my son throughout his first year at Ponsonby Intermediate on Maths tutoring and he does her writing club on Wednesdays. He loves her style, and her enthusiasm and says she gives him the confidence to take on more challenging math problems and find strategies to take back to his classroom. Sheβs kind, patient and fun and we love the Prosford Studio space too"

"These are small, welcoming classes with a range of ages. Katherine is kind and fun (according to my son) and he really enjoys going every week. Perfect for someone wanting to try drama in a small and supportive environment while learning skills and techniques."
