    About Me

    My primary focus has always been working within an educational context with young people and, in the course of my varied career, I have experience both in direct teaching and educational support in both Art, Film and Photography. This includes leading/designing workshops both within a traditional school setting, out in the community; being both a Teaching Assistant and technical support and also while working freelance in a multitude of guises over many years.

    On the side, I am a freelance filmmaker predominately working with musicians to make music videos, documenting Q+A's for various organisations and also collaborating with others to make more experimental projects. Since moving to Caen, I wish to become involved in the festivals and film scene here.

    Experience / Qualifications

    FILM WORKSHOP/PARTY LEADER
    06/07/18 - 18/11/18

    Enabling young children to bring to life a script they had written, often within a birthday party context. During the summer months, I also enrolled to teach on their week long courses, facilitating a learning environment where the participants learn to script, produce and shoot a film in a week; as well as cultivate other skills such as teamwork, acting and play games.

    ART TECHNICIAN
    06/11/17 - 18/11/18

    Art/Photography/Ceramic Technician: supporting year 7-11 (ages 11-16) in their creative endeavours. I lead an 'enrichment' class one day a week which explores drawing on film as a medium coupled with darkroom duties and assisting teachers in managing the classroom:

    FREELANCE FILMMAKER
    04/25/17 - PRESENT
    EPIK MUSIC/VARIOUS:

    I have made several music videos in collaboration with Epik Music. By pushing the envelope with regards style, content and experimentation, I also have developed my skills with professional equipment and gained valuable experience co-ordinating pre-production, script writing and casting.


    MEDIA ARTS TECHNICIAN
    14/11/16 - 04/25/17

    Technician at Media specialist school. My duties include: running and designing tutorials/workshops and specific student help during Film/Media lessons, encompassing all aspects of film production from DSLR camera work, genre specific lighting setups in conjunction with editing and post production techniques. The school has a TV broadcast studio that I have helped setup/maintain and lead workshops inducting students in its use.

    This is a varied role that also includes filming/editing a range of promotional and instructional films within the school itself. I have just completed a documentary in collaboration between the school and Tate modern:

    FILM WORKSHOP LEADER/PRACTITIONER
    NATIONAL CITIZENS SERVICE + LOCAL COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS
    06/07/16 - PRESENT

    NCS Workshops (ages 14-16): Running film based workshops during the school summer holidays. This involved taking a group of young people of different backgrounds, abilities and ages to visit a 'community partner' and make a film for that organisation to use. The main onus being that the young people take charge of their productions and learn how to
    interact with people outside their usual social framework. On one occasion this was a nursing home specialising in conditions such as dementia so the participants decided that they would make a free-form documentary consisting of interviews that could be shown as an event within the home itself. The final films were then shown as a showcase to their parents and the other groups to demonstrate their interaction with the community and a skill they had no prior knowledge of.

    Tottenham Hale After School Community Workshops:
    Working with local organisations and after school clubs to teach children artistic skills or facilitate group projects

    FILM TECHNICIAN
    06/01/14 - 25/06/16

    I helped support, teach and induct students with kit such as HDSLR cameras, lighting, support rigs and audio equipment to use within their BTEC or A-Level Film/Media coursework. I was on hand to support the students both inside and outside lessons to help with their practical and theoretical applications, from the beginnings of planning/pre- production,Health and Safety forms through to the editing/export of their final films. I also taught two 'Complimentary Study' lessons once a week; 'Basic Photography' and 'Super 8 Analogue Film'. The latter involved teaching Super 8 filmmaking combined with modern digital techniques.

    Learn how to conjugate in English/Apprendre à conjuguer en anglais
    Knowing how to conjugate in English is a persistent difficulty for many people, not only people who are learning but also people who already speak English, mastering the different tenses in English seems to be a difficult even an impossible mission for many English speakers. Mastering all tenses in English must be seen under 2 different concepts : First there is the mastery of tenses in theoretical way, which means retaining all the structures, all the tenses, in the other hand the second concept is the mastery of tenses in practical way, it means not necessarily retaining the structures of all tenses but being able to conjugate all tenses.

    Bonjour, Je suis un anglophone originaire de Bombay, en Inde. Je vis en France depuis plus de 3 ans. J'ai terminé ma maîtrise en psychologie à Bombay. J'ai donné des cours particuliers en anglais à Grenoble où j'ai vécu 3 ans. J'ai également enseigné l'anglais pendant deux ans à Bombay dans un institut privé. Je suis actuellement en train de passer le diplôme TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) qui m'enseigne différentes manières d'enseigner l'anglais aux francophones. J'ai un niveau B1 (intermédiaire) en français que je travaille à améliorer. J'adore enseigner et je veux continuer à travailler dans le domaine de l'éducation. Merci. Sumana.

    Learn Spanish culture and language
    The teaching of Spanish targets several skills: listening and understanding Spanish, expressing oneself orally continuously, taking part in a conversation in Spanish, reading and understanding Spanish. The objective is to practice the language concretely in order to allow a more controlled and natural use of Spanish.

    English lessons for all levels - aim to become comfortable speaking and overcome the fear of the French accent
    Hello to you. I am a research master's student in English, and have just returned from a teaching assignment in the United States. I propose to help you in your learning of English, through practice and oral exercises, which will be based on different types of media (videos, music, films, podcasts, books and comics). I can also offer you written practice, to help you reinforce your theory, and help you with your general understanding of English. I can also offer you an apprenticeship in the cultures of the English-speaking world, in particular the United States and the United Kingdom, if that is your wish. My goal is to help you enjoy speaking English, and overcome your fears of speaking it in public. The teaching of English in France leads most students to fear the gaze of others when it comes to their pronunciation and their accent, when this is the least of the problems. The important thing is to be able to both make yourself understood and to clearly understand English-speaking interlocutors.

    Private lessons in English and Homework help.
    This course is for those who want to progress in English and / or who want to check the understanding of certain concepts before the test (such as a video of the good teachers before entering class). As I have an LLCE in English and have been a private teacher for almost two years, I want to do my best for you. It is personalized according to the student and his needs. This course is not made to stress or distress you but on the contrary to reconcile you with English with interactive quizzes for example. I can also help with the methodology.
