About the lesson

What Sets Me Apart as a Tutor:
What sets me apart is my blend of practical experience and academic background. With an M.Phil. in Film and Screen Studies and an M.A. in Modern History and Art History, I provide a well-rounded perspective that enriches the learning experience. My experience as a researcher and art administrator allows me to offer insights that go beyond textbooks, connecting students to real-world applications and contemporary discussions in the arts.

Additionally, my strong organizational skills and attention to detail ensure that lessons are structured, focused, and productive, catering to individual learning styles and paces.

Target Audience:
My lessons are designed for a diverse range of students, including:

Undergraduate and Graduate Students: Those studying art history, film studies, or media production looking for supplementary support or advanced insights.

High School Students: Individuals preparing for AP Art History or similar courses who need guidance in critical analysis and research skills.

Adult Learners: Anyone interested in deepening their understanding of art and media, whether for personal enrichment or professional development.

In summary, my tutoring approach is dynamic, engaging, and tailored to meet the unique needs of each student, leveraging my background in the arts to foster a deeper appreciation and understanding of the subject matter.

As a tutor, my approach is rooted in fostering a deep understanding of the subject matter while encouraging creativity and critical thinking. Drawing from my extensive experience in media, research, and arts administration, I emphasize a collaborative learning environment that empowers students to explore their ideas and develop their skills.

Teaching Method and Techniques:
I employ a variety of teaching methods tailored to the individual needs of my students. These include:

Interactive Learning: I encourage active participation through discussions, Q&A sessions, and hands-on projects. This method helps students apply concepts in real-world contexts, particularly in art history and media production.

Visual and Multimedia Resources: Leveraging my background in multimedia production, I incorporate visual aids, videos, and digital content to enhance comprehension and engagement. This is particularly effective for subjects like art history, where visual analysis is key.

Goal-Oriented Guidance: I work with students to set specific, achievable goals for each session, whether it’s improving their writing skills, mastering a particular art concept, or preparing for an exam.

Typical Lesson Plan:
A typical lesson plan would follow this structure:

Introduction (5-10 minutes): Brief overview of the session’s objectives and any relevant prior knowledge.

Main Content (20-30 minutes): Dive into the core topic, using interactive methods such as discussions, multimedia presentations, or case studies. For example, if we’re exploring a specific art movement, I might present key works and encourage students to use visual analysis and historical context to understand the work.

Practical Application (15-20 minutes): Assign a relevant project or activity, such as creating a visual presentation or writing an analysis of an artwork. This allows students to apply what they’ve learned in a creative way.

Feedback and Reflection (10-15 minutes): Conclude with a discussion on what was learned, providing constructive feedback and addressing any questions. This reflection helps reinforce knowledge and builds confidence.
