Audio plays, radio drama producers, London, UK

Peter Brown has spent his whole career working in education, learning and training.

He began his career as a teacher in a comprehensive school, and became a head of year responsible for 300 pupils and a team of 10 form tutors. He also held a variety of other roles including teacher governor, and chairman of varous committees.

After 11 years of teaching, Peter decided to change careers and trained with a government agency to design computer based training programmes.

Since then, he's spent more than 20 years producing a variety of multimedia programmes on a wide range of subjects covering interviewing skills, financial management, marketing, selling skills, operations management and even an edutainment programme about Sherlock Holmes!

Peter has set up and run several businesses, and produced well over a hundred training programmes which have been used by thousands of individuals and organisations around the world.

Peter spends a great deal of his time helping writers, actors and directors produce audio drama and to bring their flair and creativity in front of the general public as well as producers. Last year, he worked with two very well-known actors - Sir Derek Jacobi and Joanna Lumley - to help a new director and writer get a play produced for radio.

Peter is a graduate of the Certificate in Professional Coaching Practice course run by New-U Coaching Ltd, which is fully accredited by the International Coach Federation. His ambition is to become a 'Master Coach'.

Peter believes passionately in professional development and undertakes regular training in coaching practice and techniques. He also receives coaching supervision and mentoring.

Peter is an associate member of the Association for Coaching, and a member of the Euro Coach List.

I found Peter really motivational and I
was impressed by his ability to put me
at ease and steer me back on course. He
coached me at a time of uncertainty,
helping me to make significant changes in
my life. His approach was impressive,
and two months after the end of our
sessions, I continue to make changes,
which is a credit to Peter.
