Hein Lottering – Biography

I am a drama practitioner, educator, and producer with a BA in Drama and a Higher Diploma in Speech and Drama from the University of Cape Town, as well as a Masterclass qualification in Feature Film Script Development through the European Audio-Visual Entrepreneurs (EAVE) program.

For over two decades, I have worked across the African continent, using the power of storytelling in film and television to support health and education initiatives. I was a producer on the acclaimed and award-winning Soul City and Soul Buddyz television series, which were broadcast in nine Southern African Development Community (SADC) countries.

I have lectured in script writing, drama, and visual literacy, and served as Head of Film and Television Studies at CityVarsity Johannesburg from 2014 to 2018. I also produced the Arts Alive documentary series, showcasing African performers who have made their mark on the international stage.

Currently, I teach conversational English online, designing personalized programs that respond to each student’s level, interests, and goals.

Now, drawing on my creative background and lived experience, I have begun a new chapter of study in Addiction Counseling. As a person in recovery, I am passionate about integrating storytelling and therapeutic practice to create meaningful opportunities for individuals navigating addiction. My vision is to guide others on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and hope
