more testimonials

The majority of these written Testimonials were rather lengthy (and very flattering… and some mushy – LOL).  I’ll spare you all of that and just give you the Highlights and Greatest Hits.  * They are in no particular order...

Julie Dolan

“I booked a huge Video Game (VO).  Really GREAT part with a lot of emotional range.  Can’t say what it is because I signed an NDA but it’s a big one. :-D  

Talk soon and thank you!” 

Dyana Liu

“The technique he has created simply works and is both intuitive and easily adaptable to different material and genres of performance.  Worth mentioning as well are his rates – the value in what his coaching provides far surpasses what he charges to work with you.  There is a reason why his students continuously book and return to him.  I hesitate to share him with too many people, yet I know more actors ought to work with him, because he is superb.”

Ginny Jones

“Oh how I love this man.  He genuinely cares about getting you booking and taking your work from ‘good enough’ to great.  His rates are very reasonable and the one-on-one attention you get just can’t be matched by any acting class I’ve ever taken.  I feel like I’m sharing my little secret with the world.  Don’t audition without him!”

Kenton Duty

“Tom is a great coach!  He has taught me how to go beyond the pages and really understand my character and we always have a blast working on the sides!”

Andrew Katers

“One and done.  They loved it and said I hit all the notes they were giving to everyone else.  Thank you, Sir” 

Annie Abrams

“Your coaching and encouragement reaches far beyond any single audition you help me on. I’m lucky to know you.”

Yasmine Giles

“EXCELLENT Teacher!!!  I’ve taken many classes but found myself booking more roles from Private Coaching with Thomas.  His approach and method of teaching – along with his quick wit and wonderful sense of humor is unmatched.” 

Jennifer Delaeo

“Very professional and efficient!  He is fun to work with and his Technique is very easy to understand.  He is the audition master!  I always get callbacks and bookings when I coach with Tom!” 

Cheryl Dent

“I spoke to the director for the film we worked on and he said I DID THE BEST AUDITION OF ALL THE ACTRESSES – but unfortunately they must go with a ‘Name Actress’ for the lead role.  He is bringing me back for another character. I am thrilled!”

Ari Davis

“Thomas Garner is by far the best in the Biz.  He will also tell you straight up what you are doing right and what you are doing wrong.  After going to twenty different acting coaches and thousands of dollars later, I now spend my money wisely and book jobs with Thomas Garner’s technique.” 

Lane Walton

“Tom’s unique approach has made all the difference for my son.  He’s truly our secret weapon.”

Erica Zodtner

“Finding you as a Teacher has been a Godsend.  Seriously.”

Trevor Kimball

“By the way (and this is said without the intention of kissing up), I want you to know that I’ve really enjoyed working with you. Your straightforwardness and sense of humor is a bonus and greatly appreciated. I’ve referred several people to you. Thanks very much.”

Joanne Chew

“Thank you very much for everything you have taught me - it’s unlike anything anybody has tried to teach me before, and I had a lot of fun too!”

Delilah Andre

“Thanks for the awesome knowledge and great support that you have provided me in the acting biz.  Your enthusiasm and humor is truly delightful!”

Gus Bemberry

“A moment to suck-up please: Finally, a teacher who talks like me – and doesn’t require a constant ego stroking.  In general, I am not a good student.  I tend to get bored and eventually dream of other things… Not so here! Thanks for keeping me enthralled for hours. I feel like I am actually learning something.”

Helen Au

“Every time I work with you, I get lightheaded.  That’s a good thing!”

June Romans

“Tom is a very talented, hardworking and dedicated coach.  Tom is very honest and straight forward and that is a great quality that is hard to find in this business.  I continually see great improvement in my son’s acting abilities.”
