About Mike
I am a retired Theatre and TV writer/director (and an ex- English teacher) - now restarting my career as a Tutor .
I am happy to travel (within reason) or to teach in my Edinburgh flat which is very central and within walking distance of Waverley Station.
I have extensive experience in directing and writing for the theatre - notably musical theatre: most recent work includes a UK tour of 'Jackie: the Musical' written by me with Arlene Philips' choreography.
I am more than qualified to assist in Drama at O or A level or indeed to coach students for drama school entry ( preparing both pieces for singing and acting). Or indeed for existing professional actors who wish to prepare more thoroughly for upcoming auditions.
Even though drama is my first love I trained originally as an English teacher and have, in addition, I have considerable musical experience.
