Are you interested in poetry but not sure how or where to begin? Have you always loved creative writing but thought the 'poetry world' was not for you? Perhaps you have ideas about what you'd like to explore but you have no idea how to get them on paper? Or perhaps you aspire to perform your poetry but you don't feel confident enough? Well this might just be the class for you! I'm a published poet & professional actor. I have over fifteen years experience performing professionally in all contexts- from Shakespeare (recently at the Globe with 'As You Like It') to Spoken Word. I also have lots of experience teaching poetry masterclasses and I have delivered these classes with various arts organisations including with The Poetry School and Southbank Centre. I teach beginners to advanced level and I'm currently writing my full legth poetry collection. My awards include Ledbury Poetry Prize 2021 (winner), Creative Future Writers' Award 2021 (silver) and Out-Spoken Prize for Poetry, 2023 (winner). My classes will be tailored to your needs and each workshop will be designed specfically to help you in areas that you would like to improve and develop. We will work with your specific interests and lessons will centre different areas including but not limited to; poetic form and structure, contemporary poetry and free verse, finding you poetic voice, the poetic line, rhyme, ways to get started, titles, and editing. In terms of spoken word- I can teach you perfromance technique and help you craft brilliant spoken word pieces that you can share with audiences far and wide! My classes are also focsed on supporting anyone with access needs including learning differences such as dyslexia or ADHD.

Understanding Poetry Forms and Techniques: Students will learn about different forms of poetry such as sonnets, haikus, free verse, and more. They'll explore poetic devices like rhyme, meter, imagery, symbolism, and metaphor, and how these elements contribute to the overall meaning and impact of a poem. 2. Writing Poetry: Students will have opportunities to write their own poems, experimenting with different forms, styles, and themes. They'll receive feedback from peers and instructors to improve their craft and develop their unique voice as poets. 3. Exploring Poetic Themes and Subjects: Students will delve into various themes commonly found in poetry, such as love, nature, identity, social justice, and existentialism. They will analyse how poets explore and express these themes through their work. 4. Studying Poetic Traditions and Movements: Students will learn about the history of poetry, including major poetic movements and influential poets from different time periods and cultural backgrounds. They'll examine how poetry has evolved over time and its role in shaping society and culture. 5. Analysing and Interpreting Poetry: Students will develop skills in close reading and critical analysis, learning how to interpret poems and uncover deeper layers of meaning. They'll explore different approaches to literary criticism and apply these methods to a range of poetic texts. 6. Engaging with Contemporary Poetry: Students will engage with contemporary poetry from diverse voices and perspectives, exploring current trends and developments in the world of poetry. They'll discuss the relevance of poetry in today's society and its potential to address pressing issues and provoke thought and discussion. 7. Performing and Sharing Poetry: Students will be given opportunities to perform their own poems or those of others in spoken word events, poetry slams, or readings. They'll learn techniques for effective oral delivery and how to connect with an audience through their poetry.
