Silvana

I have been a Mentor and Coach for Arts Emergency for many years, assisting and guiding young people who want to gain experience and a better understanding of the Performing Arts, but also needing support in building confidence and exploring options for their future.


I have worked in Corporate Role Play for a number of organisations, which have included the United Nations Candidate Assessment Centres, the STFC Talent Assessment Programme and the Ministry of Justice Officer Recruitment Programme.

I have participated in a number of Medical Role Play sessions for The Royal College of GPs, the NHS North East London Foundation Trust and the Queen Mary Refugee and Overseas Trained Doctors Programme. Most recently I was a Role Player/Assessor for the Kaplan Solicitors Qualifying Exams.

I am a skilled performer, deviser and improviser, using the skills developed and honed in the Arts to assist people in confidence building and achieving goals, be they professional or personal.

I adopt a dynamic approach, specific to each individual, through clear communication and mutual assessment at regular intervals to ensure the desired progress and outcomes are being achieved.

I have worked with all age ranges and have an Enhanced DBS Certificate, registered on the Update Services, so that it is current and valid.

I have worked in Theatre in Education and run workshops for School children as well as trained with Reminiscence Arts in Dementia Care, which is part of the European Reminiscence Network, accredited in partnership with the University of Greenwich.


I am also a Certified Master Celebrant through the Academy of Modern Celebrancy. This has allowed me to continue developing my love of words and the English Language, by creating bespoke ceremonies for these special landmark occassions.
