Answer
Hello David, First you do not tell me how old you are. You sound very young.  Second, you do not make it clear upon what basis you have decided you have 'alot' of talent.  Have you ever been in a play? Third, why do I get the feeling you do not want to be in the school plays?  Fourth, you need to improve your writing as English is the language of acting in this country and you need to know how to use it. Finally, why aren't your parents helping you become an actor?  No teen ever becomes a professional without their parents making it happen for them.  So my ideas are: be in all the school plays and get your parents involved.  Experience is more important than classes.  Best wishes and God bless, Doc
