Everyone hates their acting coach. Why? Because your acting coach is the person who forces you to get real with yourself. They are the person that looks at you after you have half sleep-walked your way through a monologue and tells you "do it again, that was BS". Well, what did you expect? It's not their job to tell you that everything you do is wonderful and your acting skills are the best they've ever seen. If such were the case, what would you need an acting coach for?
Hopefully, you have gotten an acting coach because you want to fine-tune and add depth to your acting skills by working with a professional who is taking you through a process of improving yourself on a one to one basis. If you have gotten an acting coach because you need someone to artificially inflate your ego, you have made an error in judgment.
Even people who we consider to be the greatest actors in the world have an acting coach. They recognize that acting is an ever-evolving process that one may never perfect even if you were to live one hundred years. They see that there is always room for improvement and something new to learn as an artist, and that's what a true actor is. An acting coach can make the difference between being a mediocre actor and a great actor, and they help some of the greatest actors stay great.
