John-Pierre Clark
Founder and curator of Learn Dot London
I created Learn Dot London after taking improv, acting, singing and voice classes across London and discovering how difficult it was to compare what was available.
Today, I research London’s learning providers, organise their classes into a consistent catalogue and create guides to help people find the right place to start.
What I do at Learn Dot London
- Find and review learning providers across London
- Organise classes by subject, level, format, location and schedule
- Check and update catalogue information
- Speak with providers, teachers and learners
- Create learning guides and curated collections
My learning journey
On 12 January 2026, I walked into my first beginner improv class at Hoopla. I was sweating just because I had to stand in a circle and say my name.
Over the following months, I took acting classes at City Academy and voice classes at City Lit. Five months later, I performed as Konstantin in a production of The Seagull.
That experience showed me how much the right class can change someone, and why finding the right first step matters.
