Gregory is amazing! He really knows how to teach his students in the way they need to be taught! 10/10 would recommend his class.

Had a great experience going to this class! Very insightful and focused instructor who will get straight to the point. I attended for a few months and in the process, I learned a lot about acting and myself. It helped a lot in my personal life since I learned a core message I still go by, which I lacked before going into this class. It is: Get out of your head and pay attention!

Prepare to be embarrassed because the exercises will show you the realest you which you will learn to tame with time and honesty! This class is great for introverted people who are looking for a way to break out of their shell just like I was. Although Im no longer attending, the lessons stuck with me and hope to return some day in the future!

Gregory is an amazing teacher, I have studied acting from him for the last three years, and continue to be involved in his classes to keep my acting skills sharp. He is experienced, easy to work with and always gives attention and care to your individual progress. If you are serious about acting Gregory is the right teacher. I am now a professional actor with regular bookings thanks to Gregory

It’s has been a really nice experience working with Metropolitan acting studio, my acting coach Mr. Korostishevsky has been awesome. His talent and ability to teaching is obviously in all that he does. He also cares personally about how his students succeed. I highly recommend this studio for up and coming actors.

Mr.k is a brilliant acting teacher who is very committed to the craft and his students. He is very understanding with tough love. I have intermediate experience with the repotion technique but working with Mr. K really gave me the wisdom to apply more effectively in my acting. He is very devoted to his lessons and his class. From his notable experience in the industry, I felt I was in great hands in learning how to better myself. He is no byllshit kind of fella. During covid 19, he was very flexible and considerate of all his students time and unique situations. He puts in the hours if you are willing to put in the effort. Strongly recommend studying with Mr. K
