MT Audition Course - help

I can understand your comment bb43. I don't know the circumstances influencing your comments but one thing is certain - there are so many variables in people's experiences of these situations. Isn't the old adage there's three sides to a story - yours, their's and somewhere in the middle what really happened. From what I have read, there are some impressive graduates of the NIDA SDA course, as in every major course, also many who are rarely heard from again. I do know that not all courses, no matter how great, are suitable for every person and that doesn't just apply to performing arts. Some students thrive in slightly less "prestigious" courses. Although I am not a teacher, I have a great deal of respect for them and feel that in fact, it's not the instiution that is the success it's the teachers and they don't always reside at "prestigious" institutions nor wish to teach within "prestigious" courses. Is it possible that your comment was regarding a situation in which the whole scenario just didn't click. Perhaps someone auditioned well but didn't move on from that, maybe there was a personality clash with the teacher concerned which wasn't resolved. It's a scenario one has to be able to judge with complete honesty taking consideration of all the facts, which I obviously can't do as I don't know them all. More information than you needed I know, but thought may as well throw in further thoughts. They are intended to be respectful to all concerned. Cheers
