Answer 1

The do not give you talent. most acting classes consist of doing monologues and scenes and having them critiqued.  some do various exercises and tech other techniques like in any class.  but  you need experience more than classes, get in all the plays you can. Doc

Answer 2

Most of it is just getting comfortable getting infront of a group of people and trying to convince them you are that character you are playing.  They also try to do excercises where you scream something and try to act really pissed off.
