ROB BATEMAN
Actor ~ Director ~ Coach
' This year Rob worked as the theatre director on the Eurobridge summer camp for Spanish children and teens. He produced a wonderful play "the Heroes of Troy" which both parents and children enjoyed enormously. Apart from being able to produce a successful play, Rob's main talent is his ability to motivate students and make the whole process of learning and performing great fun. Every day, the students on the camp really looked forward to Rob's theatre workshops. In a very short space of time Rob was able to create a high quality play with original music, colourful costumes and plenty of humour. I have no doubt that his success is due to his positive personality and his ability to motiviate students in such an enjoyable way'

…Rob has an extremely creative approach to teaching Drama and his love & energy for the subject are boundless. He also infects his pupils with a love of acting and the theatre. He is a natural leader of young people and they respond wholly positively to him. He has very high expectations of each of his pupils and supports or challenges them sensitively in order to bring out a love of drama in them. Rob 's Acting Shakespeare adults’ classes for non-actors were also highly popular and inspiring. His gift for drama was very much appreciated wherever he taught in and around Barcelona.
