About Me
With a master's degree in educational sciences, I have been teaching Brazilian Portuguese and French (school and FLE) for several years, in person and online.

I have lived, studied, worked, and traveled extensively in Brazil, a country whose language I speak fluently. My many trips to different states in this country have given me a good understanding of its cultural diversity and history.

Passionate about languages and cultures, I set up multilingual and intercultural projects to promote new forms of inter-relations between the cultures of the world.

Author of bilingual poetry, I have been published in Brazil and France, where I work for the promotion of popular poetic traditions. Poetry is for me a way of life, of existing and thinking about the world.

Let yourself be carried away into my multicultural universe :)

In the modern world, the significance of poetry is overlooked. From Aristotle to Derrida (the range is not comprehensive), literary theory has maintained that a poem's power is measured in its affect. Throughout this course, our goal will not be to make inscrutable poetic analysis - though the first part of the lesson will be spent analysing word choice, meter, line length and spaces of an English poem written between pre-modernism and postmodernism. Rather, through our perusal of poetic form we will be able to ground our work, somewhat modestly, in the English poetic tradition.

Before the first class you will send me some of your own work so I know how to build or refine aesthetic temperament. I have been writing poetry for ten years and two years ago I published a chapbook at a press with competitive standards, and I am currently working on a full-length collection. If you wish to take up poetry seriously, time is needed and an eye for detail is essential.

I look forward to us broadening our aesthetic sensibilities together.

I specialise in teaching rap skills and lyric writing.
If you enjoy rap music and would like to learn how to improve your technique then I am here to help you!
I have many years of experience teaching, performing and recording my own music. I sing, rap, write lyrics and have performed with a band in the past.
I can cover different styles including Hip Hop and Grime.
We will also cover lyric writing where I can help you with your flows and technique to create your own original material. There is an option to get custom made beats to help you create your own original tracks.
I really enjoy teaching and like to make the lessons challenging and fun.

People often do not know where to start with poetry, and the books give contradictory advice. I am a widely published poet and experienced and knowledgeable teacher, able to give advice, exercises, constructive feedback, and engaged classes with a no-nonsense approach to what works in a poem, and how to structure and revise effectively.

I studied Language Sciences and Literature in Paris, where I also did tutoring sessions for students in difficulty.
I also studied Game Design and Narrative Design.

Being a musician, I write song lyrics for several projects.
I have been writing poetry and freelance writing for over 10 years.
I am also a content creator for a French-speaking Belgian webzine; Shoot Me Again.

My background in literature and linguistics helped me to have a sensitivity to language. I bring a lot of importance to the weight of the words and to the rhythm in my writings.
My diverse experience has helped me build a solid background.
I can teach poetry, how to write song lyrics, spontaneous writing for the Spoken Word for example but also how to structure an article, a dissertation or any other writing.
I can also help you write a lore, a scenario and dialogues for a video game.

Write to me to have access to a piece of my portfolio!

See you soon :)

I taught Turkish to three people before. A Greek, an Arab and a German learned Turkish with me. They began to read Turkish poems and listen to songs. One of them even gives me song recommendations.
You can too. You can learn language step by step. Turkish is a difficult language. I am aware. I'm not going to crush you under the grammatical walls. Step by step, I can prove how easily you can speak a language by speaking, singing, reading poetry. Let's try it.

Poetry is a powerful creative outlet, a deeply rewarding practice, and an avenue to practice the English language at a high conceptual level. For the young or old student who is seeking to read and discuss poetry in English, as well as write and workshop their own creative writing in a structured and positive environment, this is the perfect course. Readings will primarily be selected from contemporary and 20th century American and English poets. This course can be adapted for younger students with skill-appropriate material.

About me: I was recognized as an outstanding Yale Student Poet in my graduating year, with my writing put in a chapbook alongside other students. I took multiple poetry writing courses at university and have self-published two zines of my writing, funded by Yale.

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!

Welcome to the Spanish Poetry course, a linguistic and literary journey specially designed for adults and young people who wish to immerse themselves in the rich poetic tradition of Spain and deepen their knowledge of peninsular literature.
In this course, we will delve into the vast and varied poetic production that has flourished in the Iberian Peninsula over the centuries. From medieval songs to innovative contemporary works, we will explore the voices of the most prominent Spanish poets who have left an indelible mark on the literary history of Spain.
Throughout our classes, we will closely analyze the different styles, themes and literary movements that have characterized Spanish poetry over time. From the mystery of the Romancero to the depth of baroque poetry and the passion of modernism, we will immerse ourselves in the many facets of Spanish poetry, discovering how it has evolved and transformed over the centuries.
Through readings, discussions and practical exercises, participants will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of Spanish literature and develop their skills of critical analysis and aesthetic appreciation. Additionally, intercultural and linguistic dialogue will be encouraged among students, thus enriching the learning experience and promoting a deeper and broader understanding of Spain's rich literary heritage.

Creative writing is more than just putting words on paper—it's a journey into your inner world. In this course, we’ll go beyond the technical aspects of writing like grammar, phrasing, and literary forms, and dive deep into self-expression and emotional release. Whether you're not sure where your strengths lie or have a story waiting to be told, I'll help you uncover your voice.

Expect a healing experience as we explore storytelling, poetry, and the power of language. This isn't just about writing; it's about discovering yourself through your words. Let's bring out the stories that live within you, together.

I am an experienced lecturer and tutor in creative writing, including poetry, fiction and non-fiction. I am offering on-going one-to-one online tutorials, which would involve close-readings of your creative work, critical friendship, editing and feedback. In between tutorials, I will set suitable creative writing tasks and share bespoke resources to extend and improve your writing.

Alternatively, I can offer a suite of weekly creative writing activities and resources which you can explore independently in your own time before sharing your work-in-progress with me for written editorial feedback. I can offer activities and resources that will help you explore different forms, themes and styles.

Everyone learns differently. That's why I teach the way you want. You decide what you want to learn and how, including when your lesson takes place and how long it lasts.

I teach creative writing to anyone who wants it, regardless of age, online or at my home in Velp. I can help you write fiction, nonfiction, poetry, song lyrics or theatre text. I can teach you writing techniques or we can work on a writing project. Whether it's a book, blog, fan fiction or thesis, I can help you. Anything is possible.

I'm a trained writer and teacher. I have over 10 years of experience in education and have taught creative writing, literature, art history, and other subjects at a small secondary school, where I'm also a team member. I write teaching materials that are used at various secondary and higher education schools. I have extensive experience with innovative teaching methods and one-on-one teaching.

If you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Besides creative writing, you can also come to me for lessons in music theory, art history and mathematics.

The title of class itself speaks volume. I am looking for crazy romantics and intellectual insiders to join me on this journey. Where we will merge into all kinds of things we find interesting. Things which are degrading and losing value. Things we find less people to talk about every next day. I am establishing here a platform for all kinds of artists and thinkers, eccentrics and cast outs so can share each other's company helping us ease existential burden. Learning together, Growing together. Discover together. Moving forward together. Get ready to create some new gods and remember some old ones.
