Workshop poetry for everyone. Singer songwriting.
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
In the Poetry workshop you will learn the basics of writing poetry. The form, the content and the theme are widely discussed.But we also discuss the history of literature, we pay attention to reading, and we analyze poems.
After this workshop you will be able to write poems in a convincing way.
For my poetry, below is a review by Hans Franse in Meander.
EXTENDED
The sun so exuberant and the people
the nakedness of the trees and the thaw
the coming of spring and the prey
of a seagull in the shining river
boats in the harbor and a wind keyboard
under a deck of steel-grey clouds
the people delighted and the trees
on melodious streets and the quay
the glamorous sparkle of the glass
in blue storefronts God's grace
the people one on their exuberant terrace
Somehow this poem reminds me of Marsman in music and rhythm 'and in the floodplains / the horses gallop / with billowing tails / over billowing grass'. Every now and then I seem to recognize JC Bloem's gloomy outlook on life, but those are compliments.
In summary, I think this collection is very readable. They are well-constructed and musically formed poems that sometimes conceal a strong social feeling through a mild irony. It seems to me that the poet suffers from this world, that he seeks the "entrance of heaven." Perhaps the poet also suffers as a Brabander in Amsterdam: no greater contrast than a warm Brabant village pub and the Hoppe café on Spuistraat. A beautiful book, beautifully arranged. After an initial hesitation about a melancholy that I mistakenly regarded as negativity, which I recognized too late, I read it with great pleasure and sometimes emotion.

Due to my more than twenty years of experience as a professional musician, I master both the theoretical and the performing (stage) part. During my lessons I coach you to become a stage artist. But perhaps you prefer to write songs in your attic; no problem, I'm a singer-songwriter and can guide you in this. If you have few basic qualifications, I will also help you on the right track within a few months, so that you can finally play your favorite songs yourself.

➤ On the telephone, in a meeting, in front of a client, his family (...), relevant and successful speaking must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and impactful messages, creating a balance between the message received and message sent. Coherence between form and content.
➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and make an impression, enhance your content, address your audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, of simple intervention or of 'one to one` exchange, aiming to challenge your audience or interlocutor, by taking care of the substance as well as the form. , all in a professional or personal context. For this, there are verbal and non-verbal communication techniques.
➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-assurance, ease by overcoming discomfort and controlling his emotion in public. But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.
➤ So, in this context, after having precisely defined your objective & gone through the blockages encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques & a targeted methodology:
✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee
✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders
✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of public speaking (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma) to ensure consistency between substance & form

Latin as a Living Language: from Zero to Cicero. Latin for Linguists and Polyglots💜 Salvē quīcumque haec legis et linguam Latīnam discere cupis! 💜
Greetings to you, dear reader of these lines! Some say that I have travelled here from Ancient Rome to help bring the Latin language back to life. "But", you say, "Latin is dead and has been for 1.5 millenia!" If that's what you think, let me change your mind! =)
I offer classes for all levels and topics, including but not limited to:
◈ Latin for complete beginners taught through guided reading and discussion, with a minimum of translation. You will be using the language to learn the language from the beginning;
◈ Latin for those who have studied grammar, but still don't know the language itself;
◈ Latin for those ready to approach non-adapted literature;
◈ Latin for those who can already read, but want to learn to speak and use the language actively;
◈ Latin for those who want to understand poetry (from Virgil and Plautus right up to modern Latin poets) and quantitative metrics intuitively, in the same way as they were understood by the Romans themselves;
◈ Latin for researchers, historians and anyone working with Latin texts and primary sources or writing academic papers;
◈ Latin for linguists: I have deep theoretical and practical knowledge of the phonetics and phonology of Latin as well as Latin historical linguistics.
◈ Latin for those not ready to commit, but interested in learning the Reconstructed Classical Pronunciation. Or the traditional Italian (aka Ecclesiastical), or the Germanic-Slavic, or even the Middle French pronunciation - whatever takes your fancy :-)
◈ conversational Latin and composition practice.
💡 About me and my lessons:
I've long been part of the international community of Latin speakers, have produced videos in Latin and resources for learning it, as well co-authoring a graded poetry reader "Erictho: Tartarorum Terror" aimed at students who wish to transition away from reading adapted texts and tackle authentic poetry without the help of dictionaries or translation. Thanks to my deep interest in phonetics and phonology, I have put major emphasis on researching, modelling and teaching the sounds and rhythms of Republican Latin speech in order to make Latin poetry and prose sound the way the authors intended.
I teach Latin through Latin using the singular series "Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata" as well as various adapted and authentic texts. The goal of my lessons is simple: holistic acquisition of the language in order to allow you, the learner, to read Latin fluently, understand it at a deep level, and be able to communicate in it should the opportunity arise. Except at early stages, grammar instruction will also take place in Latin.

Приветствую тебя, кто читаешь эти строки! Есть мнение, что я явился сюда из Древнего Рима, чтобы помочь воскресить из мёртвых латинский язык. Не веришь, что на латыни сегодня вообще кто-то говорит? Позволь мне тебя переубедить! =)
Я предлагаю занятия любого уровня и тематики, включая:
◈ с полного нуля через чтение, обсуждение и спонтанную речь с первых занятий, с минимумом перевода;
◈ для тех, кто выучил грамматику, но до сих пор не знает язык;
◈ для тех, кто переходит к чтению неадаптированной литературы;
◈ для тех, кто уже умеет читать, но хочет научиться говорить и использовать латынь активно;
◈ для тех, кто хочет понять латинскую поэзию (от Вергилия и Плавта вплоть до современных латинских поэтов) и квантитативную метрику, как понимали её носители;
◈ для исследователей, историков и всех, кто работает с латинскими текстами и первоисточниками и пишет академические работы;
◈ для лингвистов: историческое языкознание, фонетика и фонология латинского, в которых я не только первоклассно разбираюсь, но владею близко к совершенству.
◈ для тех, кто лишь интересуется языком и хочет по крайней мере выучить аутентичное, восстановленное произношение классического латинского (или традиционное итальянское, германо-российское, да хоть среднефранцузское, хехе);
◈ практика разговорной речи и упражнения в сочинении.
💡 Обо мне и моих уроках:
Я давно являюсь частью международного сообщества латинистов, делаю видео на латинском и стал соавтором graded reader (3х-уровневой читалки) поэзии Лукана под названием «Erictho: Tartarorum Terror» для тех, кто желает сделать шаг от адаптированных текстов к чтению классической поэзии. Я преподаю латынь через латынь с использованием несравненной серии «Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata» и множества других адаптированных и аутентичных текстов; большое внимание уделяю произношению и ритму языка. За исключением начальной стадии, грамматика тоже будет объясняться на латинском, откуда к нам и пришла ;-)
Цель наших занятий простая: целостное и всестороннее освоение языка с тем, чтобы читать любые латинские тексты без перевода и злоупотребления словарём, с естественной лёгкостью и эстетическим удовольствием. А при возможности и поддержать беседу на латинском - ведь таких возможностей становится всё больше!

French private lessons by university graduate in LettersHolder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to:
- consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling
- improve their language skills (allophone students)
- improve their speaking skills (conversation classes)
-profect the written expression
- prepare for ECR exams
- prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion)
- help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation
- work on argumentative texts
- acquire a method to analyze literary texts
- learn how to perform bibliographic research
The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing.
For help with writing:
The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson.
For analyzes of oral literary texts:
In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage.
For the corrections of end of studies work:
so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting.
Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone.
For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages.
For adults (FLE):
In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website).
The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling.
Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.
