Question
What accting schools would you recommend as far as in Simi Valley, Agora, La, Hollywood? And would you recommend private lessons?

Answer
Hi Alexandra.  Well, the acting schools I recommend in LA are The Acting without Agony Academy and The Tony Barr Studio. I am not familiar with acting studios in Simi Vallen or Agora.  If you give me the name of some studios in these areas, I will evaluate them for you if I can.  I think that acting experience in amateur plays and student films and indie films is much more important than schools or classes in acting until you are ready to seriously try to become an actor.  So I need to know much more about you and your acting background.  If you are under 18, you need your parents' help in becoming an actor.  Write me at kencosp@aol.com to continue our discussion. Best wishes and God bless, Doc
