About Me

I am passionate about helping students develop confidence, overcome difficulties and achieve their full potential. I am an experienced A-Level Media Studies lecturer and Eduqas/WJEC examiner, with extensive experience of one-to-one tutoring, classroom teaching and academic mentoring.

My specialist areas include Media Studies, Film and Television Studies, media theory, analytical writing, examination preparation and scriptwriting. I can help students understand challenging concepts, analyse media products in greater depth, structure effective responses and improve their performance in assessments and examinations.

My approach begins with listening. I consider the whole student, identify the particular challenges they are facing and work with them to create a realistic plan for progress. Lessons are supportive, structured and adapted to each student’s learning needs, current level and target grade.

One 16-year-old student said that she valued my lessons because I listened to her and helped prepare her for life after school. A university student whom I mentored said that our sessions helped him become more confident, make friends and participate more fully in university life.

I hold a PhD in Communications, Culture and Media Studies, an MA with Distinction in Television Scriptwriting and a BA (Hons) in Film and Media. I am also a published media writer and have professional experience as a newspaper editor and digital magazine publisher.

Born in Wiltshire and having lived and worked for many years in Jamaica, I bring a broad cultural perspective to my teaching. My academic interests include representation, identity, British Caribbean history and the social and cultural influence of television.

I offer:

• One-to-one A-Level Media Studies tuition
• Specialist support for Eduqas/WJEC students
• Media theory and textual analysis
• Examination technique and structured analytical writing
• Assignment, coursework and project support
• Film, television and scriptwriting tuition
• Academic mentoring and confidence-building
• Support for students aiming to progress from foundational understanding to A and A* performance

My aim is not simply to help students pass an examination, but to help them become confident, thoughtful and independent learners.

Stories are as old as we are, but if you want to put a story on paper or portray a story, it turns out to be more difficult than talking to your friends. How about now?
Not what you tell, but HOW you tell it is the most important.
The basics and how to use psychology to write a story, this is what you will learn anyway. Those who want to continue afterwards will learn how to write a script. Fiction or facts, you decide what you want to learn.

How to prepare for a media interview? What means should be used to fight his fear of the camera and improve his image? How to present yourself and your project in front of a camera?

How to present yourself and your project to the media?

Targeted content according to your project: Verbal and/or gestural communication; Seduction of the lens and/or microphone; Improvisation in front of a microphone and/or camera; Voice & gaze; One or two camera games; Chronic; Animation; Reporting; Live radio & TV; Interview; Narration; Speech in all its forms (...).

In short, several objectives:
◾ Confront your shyness in front of the microphone/camera.
◾ Understand his speech and diction.
◾ Tame the media environment (radio/tv).
◾ Become familiar with your image and voice.
◾ Manage your speaking time.

Through exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentations, time management), role plays, simulated interviews and familiarization with their image and voice, participants evolve at their own pace within a framework flexible teaching.

Please note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed gradually on the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Indeed, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, which, while taking care of its image, is based on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations ) reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech. How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression?

Knowing how to speak, act and interact in public is almost a necessity today: your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and impactful messages.

Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering confidence ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups ● overcoming shyness by assimilating 3 CRV axes (body-breathing-voice) ● better manage disagreement or conflict.

Mastered, the method allows:
• to improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's (verbal-corporal) ease, his public speaking skills and his sense of repartee and improvisation.
• to work on their ease, leadership, charisma, creativity and personal development through role-playing scenarios.
* to improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitches, intention, flow).
* convey your message through your image, while gaining improvisation skills and responsiveness.

Supplemented by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management), role plays, improvisations and simulations. With the key word: pronunciation, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee.

Do you have ideas, texts, or memories lying dormant in your drawers or on your computer?

Are you passionate about writing, active in an association, or simply curious to understand current developments?

I will support you in transforming these desires into concrete achievements.

The digital world is evolving rapidly, and the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) can fascinate, impress, or even worry. When used properly, it's a powerful tool for creating, organizing, and expressing yourself. Whether you want to stay current or fulfill a long-held creative dream, technology can be a driving force for your projects.

What I wish to offer you (my methodology):

My role is not to do things for you, but to give you the tools to become independent. My approach is based on:
- Project-based learning: we don't learn for the sake of learning, we learn to achieve.
- Clarity: no unnecessary technical jargon. I explain concepts with simple words and concrete images.
- Critical thinking: I help you use AI consciously, understanding its limitations and always keeping your personal touch.
- Patience: we progress at your pace, on your equipment, in a spirit of kindness and exchange.

Specific examples of what we can accomplish together:

- For writing: have you written memoirs or stories? Let's use AI to correct the style, create a professional layout and finalize the story.
- For image and sound: bring your stories to life by creating unique and original illustrations, podcasts, or music.
- For everyday life: mastering communication tools (social networks, websites) to promote an association or a personal project.
- For exploration: learn to "chat" with an AI (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, etc.) to conduct in-depth research or organize a complex trip.
