Arts and Culture: Literature, Film, Critical Thinking and Discourse Analysis

From 231.84 C$ /h

The class consists of lessons where we discuss previously assigned works of literature, movies and TV shows. If you are a student, this class might help you in preparing assignments for your language and literature classes, as well as developing interpretative skills and critical thinking. In this sense, the class might cover anything from interpreting poetry to discussing 20th-century philosophy. The works we focus on is up to you and your needs as a student, but if you are more interested in discussions and critical thinking, I will come up with a plan that fits your interests.

About Me

I am currently a student of Film and Media at the University of Copenhagen, and I have previously graduated in English Language and Comparative Literature at the University of Zagreb. I have been in theater for years and have taken part in different workshops on stage fright, public speaking, psychodrama and group dynamics, as well as organized several academic conferences and published scholarly articles. I can help you with any issue related to language, literature, culture and arts, communication, public performance, presentations and writing. I always try to adapt to my students, learn how you function and then help you improve your skills, as well as keep an informal atmosphere because I want you to feel good and even have fun while learning something you might have difficulties with. Even though the level of flexibility of these classes is high, all of them share a common goal, and that is helping you realize and reflect upon your potential, improve on what you have, and become more confident and independent, be it in writing, speaking or presenting.
