My daughter (9 years) has discovered a new passion thanks to Speranza and I'm amazed how much she has learned in just a few months of studio classes with Mr. Nick. His dedication and highly professional acting education skills make the students excel and grow. The beautiful location of the Apple Tree house with its warmth and historic charm is just the cherry on top. Highly recommend!
My child absolutely loves the Speranza class and camps he attends! The teacher is fantastic, making every session both fun and educational. The location is beautiful, providing a great atmosphere for learning and creativity. My child has learned a lot and developed some impressive skills since joining. My classmates are wonderful, and they create a supportive and enjoyable environment. Highly recommend this class for anyone interested in theater!!!
