Media Mentor has already helped many people establish themselves in the media and progress their career.
ELEANOR FROST – Producer/Chief Sub Sky News – “From technical voice training to career advice and guidance, David has been such a support as a mentor and I feel really positive about the results we have achieved. It’s so helpful to have someone from within the industry to suggest ideas, different approaches and give you perspective on where your strengths lie and where there is room for improvement. In months, I feel my voice has greater confidence and the mentoring has helped me open my mind to different aspects of the industry that I wouldn’t have thought of working in before. It’s been a great experience and I’m really grateful to David for his insight and contacts, I wish I had started media mentoring years ago.”
BECKY TALBOT – Broadcaster and writer – “Without the media mentor I would not have had the opportunities to really kick start my career. David’s frank and honest advice and practical guidance has definitely pointed me in the right direction. It has been great to work alongside David; he is just the most genuine and easy going person.”
GEMMA MORRIS – Presenter at SKY NEWS – describes David Spencer’s help at the beginning of her career as ‘invaluable’.
CAROLINE EDEY (Sky News producer) – said “David is a patient, knowledgeable voice coach who knows how to get the best out of his students.”
Mentoring is a great way for individuals to build confidence, expand their portfolio, and progress their career. We like to take time with each client and build a relationship – and unlike an agent, don’t forget about you! Media Mentor is there to care.
