      <image:title>Stand-Up Comedy Coaching with Ross Bennett - “It is nearly impossible to find a successful comedian who is also a generous and supportive teacher. Ross is that comedian. We met over Zoom for a 1:1 coaching session.  With patience, generosity and a commitment to the funny, Ross coached me through the revisions. It was the best hour of comedy writing I have experienced as a new comic. At the end of the session, I had a set of revised jokes that sounded like me and were much funnier. I left without feeling like I had compromised my "voice"…something I'm working on in my life….  thank you for respecting that in me and other comedians.“</image:title>
