Testimonials
“3 of my children joined The Drama Factory and absolutely love it! All 3 are very different personalities and have different levels of confidence, and yet I have definitely noticed the enthusiasm and enjoyment after each session!
The teachers are beyond excellent at being able to bring kids out of their shells!
My son is exceptionally shy and is with Miss Debbie! I have noticed such a positive change in him and he adores her!
It’s the one extra curricular activity they don’t want to miss!
As a parent I’m so happy!”
“Thank you so much, my two kids never had such fun! You made them love their sessions although they are by distance. You made them laugh, enjoy and wait for the sessions every week.
Thank you for simply being so amazing.”
“My teen son loves the classes and is very excited to attend every week no matter how tired or grumpy he is after school! He always comes out of class re-energised and with a big smile. His teachers are very welcoming, approachable and kind. “The only failure is not to try”.
Thank you TDF team.”
“After such a long and challenging time for our young people, I cannot begin to tell you how incredible The Drama Factory has been for my teenage daughter.
To see her and her friends so excited to attend each week has been amazing and so needed after what they have been through.
The teachers are simply wonderful – I will forever be grateful for their commitment to The Drama Factory and our children since their launch. The standard of teaching and quality of sessions is second to none.
Thank you The Drama Factory for playing a massive part in building my daughters confidence, helping her to develop her social skills and bringing so much enjoyment to her week.”
“My daughter loves her weekly drama class and the chance to have some fun, whilst learning new skills, outside of normal school lessons.
I know the classes will be invaluable to her as she grows and I am so pleased she gets to be creative in a different setting. Staff are so welcoming, friendly and full of energy too!”
“I’d been looking for something to help build my son’s confidence, to enable him to meet new people and have fun doing what he likes best – acting!! I am so pleased we found The Drama Factory – from the start all of the teachers he has had have been super supportive, enthusiastic and help to bring a great energy to every session.”
“My 5 year old daughter absolutely loves her Drama class at The Drama Factory. She skips into class with a big smile on her face. She didn’t know anyone before we went so I thought she’d be nervous, but the teachers enthusiasm and approach to the classes meant she quickly settled in.
I highly recommend their classes!”
“The team at TDF are just amazing, the care and attention shown to each child is exceptional. My daughter has been with them for 2 years and had learned so much, met great friends, and her teachers are wonderful mentors. Keep up the great work and see you next term!”
“Thank you so much Debbie for your kind words!! We are very sad to leave the UAE where we spent the past 12 years but also very excited to start a new life in Geneva! Arthur really enjoyed his drama classes with you guys and it definitively helped him to gain confidence We will continue in Geneva and we already signed him up for classes in September I wish you and all the members of Drama Factory all the best and keep doing what you do it is so much fun!! 👍👏”
