Barry is an excellent teacher. I've had previous coaches that were very intimidating which in the world of acting makes things VERY difficult. Luckily, Barry is a very kind and down to earth man. However, he isn't so kind that he just praises you no matter what. Barry is very honest in his critiques and gives clear instructions when needed. His prices for lessons are also fantastic! I've only taken a few lessons with Barry so far, but I have learned so much already and am always eagerly looking forward to our next lesson together!
