"During her time at The Vancouver Academy of Dramatic Arts, Liesl was the most hard working among her class and the results were a pleasure to watch. I have complete confidence that her work ethic, intellect, personality and God given talents will make her an asset to anyone that chooses to work with her.Vancouver's loss is your gain."

​"It has been a very true pleasure to coach Liesl for the Dramatic Arts Program. Liesl is one of those people; that when she walks into a room, it lights up.  She had the best laugh of the class and probably has on the whole of Africa :).  It’s contagious.  Regarding her work ethic - she’s a hard worker, focused, resourceful, persistent and it’s clear that she shares a great passion for acting.  She’s extremely dedicated and eager to learn.  Liesl takes direction very well, can certainly have a subtlety about her work and strives for truth and believability as a standard.  I would recommend her without reservation to anyone that would have the privilege of working with her." - Daniel Boileau

"I am the founder of the Vancouver Academy of Dramatic Arts. Liesl is an extremely dedicated and focused Actor. Liesl always set the standard in class. Rehearsing everyday after class and taking her assignments to the fullest. She clearly demonstrates the actor who finds joy in the process and not the outcome. Not only was Liesl at the top of her class but she also was a passionate and inspiring person to have in the studio. She is quick to learn, emotionally available, and a pleasure to have as a student. I have no hesitation in referring Liesl to you and I am sure she will bring the same vigor to you as she brought to our studio." - Simon Longmore

"I have been coaching Liesl for 4 and a half years, she has a dazzling career ahead - she is focused, dedicated and takes direction extremely well. She is always prepared and has an engaging personality. I can recommend her highly."- Fiona Ramsay 

"Liesl is a very attentive and willing actress. She is creative and generous, and works well with her fellow actors. She listens well to direction and is capable of intelligently grasping the subtle nuances that are often expressed by directors on set. Liesl has cultivated a keen awareness of the camera as a tool to allow her characters to come to life. She is passionate and talented and given the opportunities, Liesl will continue with her determination and develop her already impressive gift even further. Liesl is fun and easy to work with and with her positive attitude she is a joy to be around for both her fellow students and instructors. I trust that Liesl will do her very best in all auditions and that she will book work. If allowed the privilege to exercise her talent, she will be a great asset to the acting profession. It was a privilege to have her as a student in my class and I recommend that she be offered a chance to express her gifts as an actress. I look forward to having her as a colleague and fellow professional in the film and television industry."

"It was a pleasure to coach Liesl!  She is very talented, bubbly, and has a really nice look for the camera.  She can ably handle both comedy and drama, and she worked her accent so well that it virtually vanished to the North American ear. At VADA she developed many skills and techniques that I am sure will serve her well as she pursues her acting career. I truly wish Liesl well in all her future endeavors and highly recommend her as an emerging talent with great promise."- Andy Thompson
