“David is an insightful teacher who can set the bar high and empower the students. He is an empathetic communicator who can feel the crowd and quickly change gears if needed. I enjoyed all the tools he offered us in the voice classes as well as his patience and guidance while exploring Meisner technique. What makes David a great teacher is his thirst for continuous improvement, which is valuable and inspiring for everybody working alongside him.”

David is a remarkable acting teacher who brings a patient and gentle heart to his work. He has sought out and learned the best techniques from around the world and uses them in his own unique approach to actor training. Any actor would be lucky to have him as a teacher.

"David is one of the few who can easily jump from knowledge and experience as a teacher to exploring, feeling, guiding as an actor. In his Meisner classes one can feel empowered by his presence and commitment, guiding his students every step of the way. David is not afraid to risk and is encouraging his students to pursue the truth within ourselves. His supportive nature, dedication and everlasting desire to improve, to become better as a specialist and as a human being it's an immense source of inspiration."

David’s approach to teaching is exquisite. He has a real skill for balancing the space to take in the individual needs of the group, while also using each student's development to educate the whole class—a kind and engaging teacher.

"I can’t express how mind-opening and transformative taking voice class with David this past summer was for me. Not only did it totally change the way I thought about vocal training and acting, but it revolutionized my understanding of human interaction—instilling in me a deep desire to continue with this work."

Training with David was remarkable! The way he demystified and distilled the deep knowledge he has into practical advice changed the way I look at voice practice. Every session was fun and engaging in a way I never experienced with voice training before. Having applied what I learned from our sessions into my stage debut, I can attest to the results, which wouldn't have been the same without his help. I very much look forward to working with David again.

I had the opportunity to study the Meisner Technique with David for about three months at LAMDA. David led each session with exceptional structure, passion, and sincerity. His classes were always dynamic and purposeful, creating a space where students felt encouraged to ask questions and explore deeply. One moment that stands out vividly for me was our final session, which I shared with my scene partner. In that moment, I wasn’t performing, I truly believed and responded with honesty. This wasn’t a sudden breakthrough, but the result of David’s patient and detailed guidance through each foundational stage. He never rushed the process, and every step felt intentional and meaningful. Without a doubt, David is one of the most inspiring teachers I’ve had the privilege to work with. He offers his students the time, tools, and trust they need to grow, and he possesses the rare ability to lead that journey with both skill and genuine care. I’m truly grateful for the time I spent training with him.
