Reading and writing
Perform can boost reading and writing skills
Research shows that children who participate in drama, dance and singing have better reading and writing skills.
This may be because they have learnt to create images in their minds while reading or developed their imagination thereby improving their creative writing. Whatever the reason, drama is now seen as essential in teaching literacy skills and giving children a lasting love of books and language.
And it's not just literacy. A study by the National Theatre showed children with experience of drama workshops scored higher in Maths SATS as well. So regular Perform classes could make a big difference to your child's performance at school.
Olivia is just brilliant! My son and daughter are very different characters; Olivia is marvellous with them both. She is encouraging, fun and extremely professional. I have recommended this class to many of my friends and will continue to do so.
Charlotte was fantastic with all of the children. The level of engagement was a joy to see in all of the children.
Annabelle is great - she is extremely professional and seems very interested in maximizing Claudio's experience with Perform.
Ollie and his team are fantastic. My daughter Florence is quite shy but absolutely loves going to Perform and has really grown in confidence.
Helena is just wonderful. Her enthusiasm is boundless and my children count down the days till Thursday.
Very interactive. Not easy to gather so many children, different ages and backgrounds and keep them engaged. In that respect, the team do a fantastic job.
I am astounded at the amount of energy David and Molly both have each week. Their stamina and enthusiasm engage the children from beginning to end.
Matt and Becky are amazing ambassadors for Perform ....the security they provide around the room and the quality of teaching is outstanding. A complete privilege that Sophia's little life is being influenced by such special people. Thank you.
Lucy is great. Full of enthusiasm and a desire to please both children and parents alike.
Gemma is brilliant, she has been amazing with Neve and her brother Luke who has been attending for 2 years. Can't praise her enough!
It's brilliant. Karen is a sensational teacher - you should clone her. Her enthusiasm is second to none. She is perfect and we are very lucky that we have her. She deserves an award for energizing the kids and being brilliant. Sam loves her and so did Jack.
Charlotte and Georgia are super - really professional and a credit to Perform.
Clearly contact with parents is built into the Perform structure, but Melissa's kindness and enthusiasm has been amazing. Melissa has been so helpful, offering great advice and being on hand to reassure Viva (and me!). I could not have asked for a better response
The teachers are absolutely brilliant
Both my boys absolutely love their Perform teachers and were particularly excited to have a male teacher! We couldn't be happier.
The teachers are very enthusiastic which makes it fun for the children. We decided to sign Esme up to Perform to help improve her confidence and encourage her to speak up in a crowd. I was really pleased to hear feedback today that she had said her lines very loudly.
Vicky and Emily both seem to really engage with both my children and make them both feel important. Building their confidence and improving their skills.
I cannot praise highly enough the enthusiasm Karen and Annie have in the class, which makes for a thoroughly enjoyable and really fun Sunday morning for our Ava!
I'm so impressed with Perform & especially Oli & Sophie who have the children completely captivated, engaged, happy, interacting, confident....just magnificent.
