The best way to become better at your craft is to constantly challenge yourself.
The best actors in the world today are the ones that ensure they play different roles. For example, Johnny Depp, who has played a surreal created man with hands made of scissors, a juvenile delinquent, a detective and most recently a pirate, among other things.
Tom Hanks, who has played a mentally challenged character, Death Row Warden, a bumbling businessman and a small boy who turned into an adult overnight.
You cannot learn to do something better without constantly challenging yourself. If you realise you're starting to get very good at playing one type of character, try doing something totally different. Don't be afraid to go from Shakesperian to something a little more 'fun' or something a little risque.
Try also to learn from the experiences and mistakes of other actors. If they did something that you think was a mistake and you notice it, you can keep yourself from doing the same thing.

I personally think that a good actresses is confident, strong, and imaginative.
Practice your skills by doing improv with your class or maybe a bunch of friends. If you are in a theatre class at school they should have improv warmups. Dont be shy, if you think you are going to say something stupid, say it anyways!
I think if you can make people laugh, you are a good actress, because making people laugh is easier than doing a dramatic role. If you can master the art of making people laugh, then your confidence will be up and you can try out for a dramatic play, and if you practise enough, you will probably do just fine.
Just remember to be outgoing and confident. You will do fine.

Just be confident.
&& believe in yourself.
Those are key =]

This quote really affected me when I saw it on the wal of my Acting Coach's studio:
"Acting is living truthfully under imaginary circumstances."
This quote is so right...when you act you can't really act...you need to be true to the way that character would act. You basically need to react the way you would in a circumstance, but still keep in mind how your character might act differntly as well. Let's say you are doing a scene where you need to cry because your great grandmother died, but in real life this has never happened to you. I know that makes it really hard to react, because you've never experienced that before. However, if you think of something similar...let's say a pet dying, or even a breakup (something sad that HAS happened to you) then you can sort of feel the way the character would feel (sad). However, the object is not to try & "fake cry"...instead you need to REACT to the situation like you would in real life & your reaction will natuarlly lead to the fake crying, instaead of just fake crying being your objective. The same thing goes for happy, excited, scared, ext. If you need more help just IM me at emalieee x3
hope i helped!
