Testimonials
I have had the opportunity to be taught by Andriana for the past two years in LAMDA Public Speaking and her impact on my skills has been remarkable. Under her guidance, I have completed Grades 5 through 8, achieving distinctions. Throughout our weekly lessons, Andriana provided encouragement and constructive feedback helping me enhance my speech-writing and delivery, even in impromptu situations. She is excellent at customising lessons to meet specific needs, which has been beneficial. I highly recommend her teaching to anyone serious about improving their public speaking skills.

Andriana is an amazing drama teacher. She is always so inspiring and encouraging and provides a lot of detailed feedback. My 7 year old son absolutely loves his weekly lessons with Andriana.
Madina
These lessons are helping my daughter with her general speech and confidence. When she was younger she needed a bit of speech therapy and although she has come a long way since, this is really building on that. I would highly recommend Bright Lights.

Lessons whether face to face or via the internet are fun and interactive. After each class my daughter always says she has had so much fun. Since she started lessons her confidence, expression and communication have blossomed. I would highly recommend lessons with Bright Lights School of Performance.

Andriana is a very engaging Lamda teacher. She has been teaching my daughter, aged 6, for a term and has really boasted her confidence in public speaking. My daughter feels very relaxed and at ease in the lesson. Andriana is always very professional and punctual. My daughter looks forward to her lesson each week and it’s lovely to see her progression.

Andriana is an excellent teacher for LAMDA. She has been teaching my kids (9 & 12 year old) for past 6 years. Andriana has been helping me in my presentation skills and elocution that enabled me to delivery better training/coaching sessions at work. She is pragmatic in designing different sessions, understanding our needs. She is flexible in re-arranging sessions. My kids love her and enjoy every single session. I would definitely recommend Andriana!
Lokesh Kataria
Andriana is an excellent teacher and strives to steadily improve the children's performance levels in a constructive and friendly manner. Session feedback is always prompt even during remote lessons which helps facilitate improvements for the next lesson. Andriana's methods have secured consistently high exam results with distinctions and high merits earned. The skills being learned by the children will be invaluable for the years to come.

Yamuna Kataria
I have been with Andriana for almost 10 years now and it has been one of the best experiences ever. I have grown in confidence and in articulation. Her classes are very enjoyable with an amazing teaching style and great feedback on my work and exams. Andriana has a friendly and loving energy and I have a developed a wonderful relationship with her. I confidently recommend her to all.
Shriya Bhudia
Andriana is an amazing Lamda teacher, who I cannot recommend enough. Patient, engaging, lots of fun and extremely professional in her role. As well as being very supportive and encouraging. The results she achieves with her students speak for themselves. In my daughters last exam she received a Distinction. This was a real boost for my daughter's confidence, and now she is very much looking forward to her next graded exam.
D. Bhamra
Thank you ever so much Andriana for everything you’ve done for Abinaya! She’s learnt so much from you and has enjoyed every lesson!

Thank you ever so much Andriana for everything - she and I definitely appreciate it so much :)

Hiral Khoda Vyas
Andriana has been an amazing drama teacher. She is very friendly and approachable. She has a wealth of knowledge and articulation which both our son and daughter have benefited from. They have been with her for several years. My son has now completed the lamda program to grade 8 successfully. My daughter is on Grade 8 currently. They both have had either merits or distinction in their lamda exams.
Nishita Shah
5 STARS all the way. My daughter was with Andriana, the founder of Bright Lights School of Performance for almost 10 years. Her help, guidance, encouragement and expert tutelage had resulted in my daughter achieving 4 Grade 8 exams at LAMDA, 3 of which were at Distinction (the last was only yesterday, so results are still pending). She'd also won 2 Gold, 1 Silver, 1 Bronze Medals and numerous Merit Awards at the Watford Festival. As a parent, I can not recommend Andriana highly enough! Her approach, patience, and dedication had resulted in addition to the above in a girl who isn't afraid to stand up in front of hundreds of people, who is confident and self-assured. These are life skills! Not to mention that it made my daughter appreciate the written and spoken word, helped train her memory and is now an avid reader and Theatre goer. The best extracurricular activity we had embarked on. Thank you Andriana!!
Judith Faludy Igary
Andriana is an excellent teacher for LAMDA. We are with her for past 4 or 5 years. She always encourages and give positive feedback. She knows exactly where to improve and pinpoints every detail. She is flexible to arrange classes. My children loves her and enjoys every lesson. I will definitely recommend Andriana.
Kyshaan Ravikumar
I was a student at Bright Lights and gained so much confidence through the classes I received, all the way up until I finished all my grades. The standard of teaching was very high, with support throughout through feedback, comments, mock exams, resources etc. Being a student at Bright Lights has given me confidence, intellect and creativity, as I was taught with guidance and encouraged to input my own ideas into all my pieces. She works excellently with all age groups and builds a fundamental relationship with her students. I have continually spoken highly of her teaching and effort put into all her lessons! Would strongly recommend to anyone!
Kynthia Ravikumar
My daughter was fortunate enough to gain a place with Andriana at Bright Lights School of Performance in January 2017, and we cannot praise her highly enough. My daughter is very keen on acting and performing and Andriana has successfully helped her to pass every exam taken so far with a distinction - one of them even gaining maximum 100 marks! Andriana ensures her pupils are well prepared for their exams, without making them feel under pressure, and this helps enormously with any nerves on exam day. Andriana is empathetic to her pupils and brings out the best in them. My daughter wants to become a LAMDA teacher like Andriana when she is older.
Sue Terry
I've been with Andriana for 3 years now and I think the classes are great. Everyone is so friendly, and she makes the exam preparation fun. Sometimes we play a game if we have spare time at the end of the lesson, which I think helps the nerves if you are preparing to take your chosen LAMDA exam. I would definitely recommend Brightlights school to anyone who loves performing, public speaking or wants to gain confidence.
Lauren Terry (student - aged 12)
Andriana is a fantastic teacher. She's taught our daughter from the age of eleven to sixteen culminating in her gaining a Distinction in her Grade 8 Gold Medal award. She's gained a distinction in every exam and it's thanks to Andriana's excellent standard of teaching, calm and encouraging manner and organised approach. The whole experience has been so positive and has helped to boost our daughter's self-confidence and given her a great sense of achievement. Thank you so much Andriana. We're really going to miss you!
Lisa Daitz
Andriana Loizou has been a fantastic positive influence in Dana's speech and drama development. Dana started to be tutored by Andriana in primary school and now 3 years through secondary school. In particular Dana's dyslexia is a great challenge for her and the sessions with Andriana helped a lot to gain confidence and improved her over all learning abilities.
Andriana's super pleasant nature and skills, both in dramatic arts and teaching, are brilliant. We don't think Dana would be where she is today without her support. We as parents consider ourselves privileged to have our daughter shining to that extend under Andriana's guidance and are looking forward to a long future of that partnership.
John and Sheila Carlisle (Parents)
Andriana is an an amazing teacher. She is spot on with the technical knowledge of getting them to enunciate, speak with expression, make eye contact, hold good posture etc. What really sets Andriana apart though is her style. She is fun and really invests time and energy to make each class individually suited to my child. I have two very different children and she adjusts her teaching so she brings out the best in each of them. Andriana is gentle, positive and really gets results. I have seen a huge progression in the way my children communicate and I know this is a crucial skill for life. I would highly recommend Andriana as I have done so to many of my friends and family already!
S.P. (Parent)
Thank you Andriana for bringing out the best in my Shnour. Your way of teaching had enabled her to become a very confident young girl and believe in herself. She enjoys your lessons and always looks forward them.
Nazneen Lakhani (Parent)
My children all study LAMDA with Bright Lights School. Andriana has really helped each of my children flourish and grow in confidence. She brings vitality, humour and connects superbly with the children. Andriana has helped them achieve a fantastic standard that has resulted in them winning awards. She is focused, constructive and supportive.
Jay Thakkar (Parent)
My daughter has attended drama lessons at Bright Lights School of Performance for the last four years. During this time there has been an enormous growth in her development, her reading and speech now reflect her understanding through use of articulation, pause and emotion. Jessica has demonstrated this at her LAMDA examinations and on stage at The Watford Festival, which Andriana fully arranged and prepared her for, both of which have returned excellent results.
My daughter thoroughly enjoys her lessons; her relationship with Andriana is superb. Andriana is very helpful, with a warm, friendly and bubbly personality. She has great subject knowledge, experience, enthusiasm and passion for teaching children.
Phil Sheehan (Parent)
I enjoy practising and learning new drama skills. I have definitely improved since starting classes, I started in year 4 (I’m now in year 7) and was under-confident, but now I feel confident and love getting up to perform! Andriana is the best teacher and has helped me to be able to perform in front of an audience. If I hadn’t joined classes I would never have realised how much fun it is and I wouldn’t have met the friends I have made through my years at Bright Lights. Thank you Andriana!
Jessica Sheehan (Student, Aged 13, 4 years of classes)
After starting classes with Andriana I can now speak articulately and with confidence. I really enjoy my classes, as my teacher always has a smile and we have humorous lessons.
Kiyan Mody (Student, Aged 12, 1 year of classes)
My teacher created enjoyable lessons, through which I have gained confidence and important new skills.
Meenaka Sivaharan (Student, Aged 15, 2 years of classes)
I have fun playing games with Andriana and bringing my toys in to show and speak about! I meet other children and make friends too!
Iliana Hill (Student, Aged 6, 3 years of classes)
I would highly recommend Andriana, she is an excellent teacher. She's always encouraging and her teaching is a very high standard. We would highly recommend her lessons to everyone, my children love her!!
