"I see so many students of all ages with stars in their eyes. Talent is only about half of the reason someone can make a career in this business. The other half is the business work. My goal is always to walk students and parents as well as many professionals, through this work in "bite sized" pieces so that it doesn't seem overwhelming." says Huffman.

Thus class is appropriate for anyone interested in learning about applying to colleges, or auditioning professionally.
