Jenny is a wonderful teacher and coach. She coached me on my song & monologue selections for college auditions. She really helped me to understand the context of each piece, and allowed me to connect myself to it ~ she works with you to make sure it really resonates with you. And she knows when you’re faking it and not actually in it! She’s got a great sense of humor and took a lot of the pressure out of it, actually made me relax a bit and enjoy the process. After my big audition I was called back to numerous schools and received an acting scholarship to the school I’ll be attending in the fall 😊. Thank you Jenny! I am sooo grateful to you and your team for helping me make it all happen! ❤️

Ever since those teachers laid eyes on me, I had been totally invested into, intellectually and emotionally. They’ve reminded me of my reason to perform, go live, to breathe. I love the training, teachers, and the overall experience, and I swear you all will too!

Working with someone like Jordan Fetter, who really believes in your potential and abilities, has been absolutely crucial to developing my confidence as a performer. The safe and open environment that he allows for is conducive to growth as a theatre artist. Any boldness or originality in my work as a performer is a direct effect of my training with Fetter. I was always encouraged and pushed to find my own voice and have complete confidence in it! I would absolutely recommend any actor to work with such a phenomenal director!!

The teachers are incredible and passionate about there work. So fantastic!

This is a program that has excellent teachers that have not only had many years of experience working with students and helping students reach their full potential, but all of these teachers are also constantly working. They are seeing how the business is changing, which helps these teachers be much more helpful to students providing them with the tools that they need for success. They are dedicated to each individual student and are fully invested in your success and growth not only as a performer, but also as a human being.

The instructors were very nice and helpful and helped me expand on my skill set in ways unimaginable. They clearly want the best for you and want you to succeed!!! I would most definitely recommend!

One of the most influential people in my life and a joy to work with.

These teachers will go above and beyond to help you succeed. They care so much about theatre, have a passion like no other, and fully driven to help you

They were consummate professionals and some of the friendliest people I’ve ever met! They were constantly giving me tips and helping me improve in my craft. There was never a time where I felt bored or that I was wasting my money. I love how passionate everyone is about helping me improve and being a better actor.

The instructors at AAMT embrace each students uniqueness, and allows each artist to fully develop a sense of confidence in who they are as a performer.

I used to be a shy kid, but I've grown to be outgoing and confident and none of it would be possible without The Academy!

I loved that I was constantly pushed outside of my comfort zone! It was truly an experience like no other and I loved every second of it. :)

Jordan Fetter and the other directors leading the program are intelligent and caring people who have your best interest in mind. They know what they’re doing and are 100% devoted to shaping young performers and bettering them.
