"Hi there, I'm Tanya! I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Drama and a Masters in Fine Arts in Theatre Arts with an emphasis in Performance. Growing up my favorite teachers were those who were patient, creative, and made each lesson fun while instilling confidence and that what I aim to do with my teaching and tutoring.

I have spent over 25 years in the theatre Industry working as an Actor, Designer, Choreographer and Director and Educator. I have spent 5 years working with University Students, and over 20 years working with children ages 5-18 in various live production settings. I am currently living my dream job, teaching Voice and Acting at a private University in Central Illinois specializing in Fitzmaurice Voicework and Stanislavski Acting Techniques. I am adept at meeting students where they are, working with them to discover their goals, and create actionable plans to achieve those goals." less...
