Example questions:

  • My daughter is 16 years old and would love a career in musical theatre. She has had limited private dance lessons, so there is a big gap in her training. She needs to find a somewhere that will teach her from the basics up. Can you help us?
  • I am seeking funding for my son who has been offered a place at a vocational school on a three year professional training course. I dont know where to turn for more help because I can't afford to pay the fees myself. Please can you advise me?
  • I want to find out more about becoming a dance teacher. I have been dancing since I was four and it is all I ever wanted to do. Where can I get some advice?
  • My daughter attends a local dancing school where the teacher advertises that she has a lot of qualifications. How do I know if these are real or not?
  • I am new to the area and need to find a dancing school for my son. I want to be sure that the school is safe and that he will be taught properly. There are lots of schools in the area. How do I know which one to choose?
