TV Hosting Level One-Intro to On-Camera
Reviewed by Nick D. on 1/23/2019
Stop thinking about it and sign-up now! This class is great!
Barbara is a wonderful instructor with real-world experience to back up her lessons. She was patient, encouraging and provided equal time and attention to everyone... she even stayed an extra hour-and-a-half to make sure we all got as much out of it as we could!
You get in front of the camera, which was my favorite part. Barbara coaches you through fun exercises that provide an interesting perspective on, well... you. Who knew "tell me a little bit about you" could be such a difficult request? Within a week, you get emailed a copy of your videos with feedback so you can review.
This course gave me exactly what I was looking for:
• Help figuring out where I fit in in this business
• Recognizing my current strengths and weaknesses
• Resources for getting started and how to properly utilize them
• The obstacles to expect and how to overcome them
In summary, if you are like I was -- wanting to be a part of the "talent," on-camera hosting world and wondering where to begin -- THIS is where you begin!

I loved the class! The instructors Barbara & Sean are experts in the industry and help you with everything from auditioning to getting the job. You learn a lot from the other students as well who vary from entry level to pro. For me it helped me determine where my skill set needs to be to get on a home shopping network and inspired me to create my own content. I love this dynamic duo & would definitely take a class with them again.
