You need to do all the speech and drama things at school including the competitions and plays, You need in a couple of years to find some professional classes. You do not hire an agent. You sign a representation contract with an agent if they will take you. You have to be 18 or a parent has to do it for you. But that is much later, after you have built an impressive resume and roles played in plays and professinal training.

take classes to shapen your skills, experience is key audition for things in your area and network yourself

The acting couch is always an initiation allegedly.

Only you know the steps of becoming an actress because that is your dream. No one can tell your future but you. Plus I am not an actress how would I know. :)>-

Go to a good theatrical school like The Royal Acadmy of Dramatic Art (RADA)
You can find out about it by Googling.
Alternatively, The Bristol Old Vic Theatre school where I believe Peter O'Toole started.
