Lina - Tilburg, Netherlands£31

£31Learning Korean Language ( K-pop / K-Drama / K-Literature)

Trusted teacher: I am a South Korean poet and actor. I currently live in the Netherlands. Last year, I taught children at a Korean language school in Eindhoven. Because I was an actor, my Korean pronunciation is very accurate and can be of great help in developing your Korean conversation skills. Also, since I am a poet, I can also teach classes on Korean literature. In the Netherlands I make a living as a musician. So, it is possible to take classes to learn Korean while learning K-pop. I express my gratitude to all of you who love the Korean language and love Korea, and I will be ready to experience the beauty of the Korean language with you and actively help you!

Jessica - Belsize Park, United Kingdom£36

£36A glorious journey into poetry: creative writing and learning

Trusted teacher: My classes involve a mixture of discovering poetry in its diverse forms and responding to writing exercises. All activities have the aim of expanding the student's personal relationship with this incredible art form and developing their power to self-express creatively. We will look at how poetry continues to challenge the status quo and can act as a space for connection, emotional healing and rebirth in climates of limitation and struggle. I am passionate about teaching poetry writing because I have seen how beneficial the sharing and crafting of poetry is for mental health; I want to bring this passion into people's lives and am as excited to learn from each student's insights and creations as I am to impart knowledge and feedback. I am an experienced tutor and published poet with a first-class honours degree in English and Spanish from Durham University. My anthology "Poems of Hope", on the subject of mental health, was published in 2019 to fundraise for Mind UK. I am currently studying part-time postgraduate course in teaching creative writing with Cambridge University to complement writing and teaching. I have 5+ years of experience tutoring English and have devised and delivered poetry workshops for vulnerable adults as well as tutored creative writing throughout the pandemic. I have also spent a year working with SEN students in secondary education as a teaching assistant. I welcome teenagers and adults who identify as neurodivergent, disabled or struggling with mental health. I hope to hear from you and look forward to journeying into poetry together.

Anthoni - United Kingdom£26

£26Poetry: explore structure and writing style with a published author.

Trusted teacher: Poetry is as much a tool of personal expression as it is a creative discipline. While the importance of learning about style, stanzas, and sibilance is undeniably important, so is discovering your own authorial voice. These sessions are designed to support you in discovering what makes your poetry 'yours'. Together we will look at examples of other's poems to dissect how the authors use various techniques and linguistic devices to construct poems before looking at how to apply those devices in ways that help us achieve our desired outcomes. We will also break down what poetry means to us individually, recap different types of and form within poetry, complete writing sprints, and more. You will also have the opportunity to 'workshop' examples of your work with me, if desired. I first had poetry published in 2016, and have been featured in several magazines and journals in the past few years - throughout 2020/21 I was featured in a number of publications including the prestigious Train River Publishing Quarterly, Creatures Magazine, Felan Zine, Fresh Froot mag, and more. I am also versed in writing prose and lyrics, and I have extensive experience teaching English.

Haitham - Islington, United Kingdom£24

£24Learn how to really read poetry and infer different meanings while understanding different Literatures!

Trusted teacher: Preview the poem by reading the title and paying attention to the poem's form: shape on the page, stanzas, number of lines and ending punctuation. Read poem aloud several times to hear rhyme, rhythm, and the overall sound of the poem. This makes it easier to understand the poem. Inferring is how we enter into those holes and spaces as we read. When we infer, we figure out what the author might have meant when information isn’t explicitly stated. In Strategies That Work, we make inferences by combining our background knowledge with clues from the words on the page. Novels tend to be easy to read. You can sit down and become absorbed by a book for an hour or more. Poems, on the other hand, typically require slow and careful study to glean their full meaning. The lines of a poem tend to be more complex, more “packed with meaning,” than lines of text in other types of literature.

Vocal Training (Jazz / K-pop / Pop / Theater / Vocology ) (Tilburg)

Lina

I have been taking vocal lessons with Lina for some time now, and I can definitely say she is a very professional and cultured teacher. I mostly appreciate her keen observation, which helps her make her classes tailored to your goals and needs. Lina is the type of teacher who inspires and empowers you to take control of your own learning journey, as she says, 'to become a teacher of your own.' Joyful and enthusiastic, with a very warm presence, she makes you walk out of her lesson equipped with clear goals, positive energy, and determination.
