Tiwa L.

I recently graduated from The American Academy of Dramatic Arts and have been invited to join the 3rd year with the Acting Company. Prior to coming to study in New York, I was in the UK where I was born and raised.

While home I had a great opportunity to work closely with children at my old school, I was also a dance and drama mentor for 11-16 year olds in addition to fulfilling classroom assistant duties. Some of the children I worked with at the Northampton School for Girls, were children aged between 11and15 with varying degrees of learning difficulties like, ADHD and Aspergers.

Working under these circumstances strengthened my patience and enhanced my knowledge, patience and admiration for those looking after young and vulnerable children.

On a more personal level, I am the oldest of 4 girls, so intuitively have always had a seemingly natural responsibility to be sensible and caring, especially with the 13 year gap between myself and my younger sister who is now 8. I have an idea personality traits of that age group having had a wealth if experience with one who is also the last born.

Given the opportunity, I believe I have a lot to offer in addition to the fact that young people are a source of knowledge in all their ever interesting ways .
