Hi,
TV anchor is not easy. You may have all the skills for being a TV anchor but the most important one is to get recognised by good people from the industry to get good jobs.

All the best.

Dear,
To become an anchor, there is no specific course but your personality, communication skills and confidence. Mass Communication is a co related field not 100% specific to anchoring.

All the best.
