The Teacher

Hello! I’m Fi. I trained as an actor at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, after graduating with a degree in English from the University of Oxford. I have written and performed for stage, radio and TV and bring my experience of performing to live audiences ranging in size from 9 (!) to 2500 people.

Since having my own children I have seen first-hand how enjoyable and enriching it is for them to engage with poetry, public speaking and acting from a young age. From connecting with literature outside a school setting, to speaking publicly with clarity and confidence, and developing their own self-expression, these are valuable life skills that are fun to learn.
