It’s hard to argue with the results: the final class show was very funny, and everyone delivered. I didn’t though that would be possible, but here we are. I also enjoyed every minute of every class, even if it pushed me from my comfort zone. 10/10 would do it again - Nikita
An insanely transformative experience. Caroline does an amazing job of turning total noobs into stage-ready stand-up comedians. - Svenja
I have only phenomenal things to say about this class and Caroline. When I started I was petrified, had very little knowledge about stand-up, and really wanted to challenge myself and build some confidence. I got such a confidence boost from the whole experience, as well as a drive to continue doing stand up whch I didn't expect at all! Caroline is truly an incredible teacher, so encouraging, honest and authentic. I felt in safe hands from the moment the course began. She is so knowledgeable, articulate and brilliantly funny, whilst always being accessible, warm and present. Her feedback was invaluable, always able to coax you into finding your voice, emotional point of view and what is actually funny within the material. She could get to the crux of your joke and help you improve it immediately which continuously blew my mind! Her methods for creating honest material, and notes on editing, made the whole writing process really enjoyable as well as challenging. I had an absolute blast and would recommend this to anyone. My friends who attended the final show were blown away! How Caroline got the material from us she got with just a few weeks is astounding to me, and really speaks to her brilliance as a comic and a teacher. - Tash Lee-Dowd
Everyone who has dreamed about doing standup has to take this class! By the end, you will have a very good sense of how to get from a bunch of your random thoughts to a presentable and even funny performance. Most importantly, you will discover your authentic voice which was almost therapeutic for me - all this will happen under Caroline’s kind and subtle guidance and with support from your group. It’s a wonderful experience! I highly recommend Berlin Standup School to anyone who wants to do standup! - Anon
I truly enjoyed every minute of this class! Caroline is an amazing teacher. She makes everyone feel welcome – kudos to how well issues of consent and inclusive language are handled in class – and has a very charming and warm way of encouraging you to get over your inner saboteur, as RuPaul might say. The writing exercises were incredibly helpful too. Especially since the threshold to get started is very low at the beginning. Then week after week you chip away at your material and it gradually gets better and better. What I liked the most was the emphasis on writing about real stuff that is authentic to me and not gimmicky. I never felt so at ease when doing something creative before (imposter syndrome was shaking in its boots haha). The class is very high value for money and I would really encourage anyone to go for it. Thank you so much, Caroline! - Kathi
"I had considered trying stand-up for years but was always too scared to take the plunge. While I knew how to make my friends laugh, I had no idea how to write material for a show. Caroline's class became the perfect bridge for me. It provided a safe space where I could learn how to write, and receive valuable feedback on my material. I transformed from writing okay one-liners to creating a flowing five-minute set that I was genuinely proud of. The value of the class comes not only from Caroline’s guidance but also from the classmates. Being surrounded by fellow newcomers allows you to support each other, create new friends and improve your skills much faster than if you were alone. The class-show at the end nothing short of incredible. It was so special to witness the final product of everyone's hard work and finally get to experience what it's like to perform on stage! If you’re curious about stand-up but unsure how to get started, I couldn't recommend this course enough." - Joe
It would be enough to say how consistently hilarious everyone's sets were by the end of the course, but even more impressive was how diverse their styles were! A crappier class would have churned out identikit clones of the instructor but instead everyone was encouraged to flourish into the funniest versions of themselves. I hope this feedback is half as good as the feedback we got in class. - Richie Murphy
