Monica Garcia is a brilliant acting teacher, the most important thing that Monica has that is essential within being a teacher is that she believes that anyone can be as great of an actor as they want to be, if they put in the work. The work is what she stresses and that is the most vital part of acting, the fact that you want to be an actor is all that she needs to then push you to the next level. For me, Monica has been life changing because she has helped me become a complete actor. She loves her students and wants them to get out and take their career by the throat. She gives you her best, every single moment she is with you. That is everything. Monica has given me the chance to stretch my instrument, my body, by challenging me every class. She will challenge you every class, anyone can be an elite level actor and she makes it tangible.  She's an Adler Woman and has taught me to be an Adler Man. I’m very proud to say that she is my teacher and will always be my teacher. I say this again because it’s very important, Monica loves her students and she welcomes every student in with open arms and an open heart. She’s the guidance counselor that gives you first priority registration, she's the cool aunt that you can tell everything too, she's the amazing sister that will give you free advice, she will love you but more importantly teach you. She demands respect and should be respected because she is a remarkable talent that knows how to make complete actors that then can go on and become good and great actors by giving themselves to the work.
