Hi! I'm someone who loves learning and talking about culture, and I offer casual tutoring sessions for anyone who wants to explore the world of film, art, music, and history in an enjoyable and relaxed way. If you're curious about cinema beyond the latest blockbusters, we can dive into art house films and discover directors like Ingmar Bergman, Kurosawa, Haneke, Andrei Tarkovsky, Kubrick, Agnès Varda, Jean-Luc Godard, David Lynch, or Wong Kar-wai. Whether you're just getting started or already a film lover, we can discuss storytelling, symbolism, cinematography, and the ideas behind great movies. Art is another passion of mine. We can explore the works of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Francisco Goya, Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, Frida Kahlo, Edward Hopper, and many others. Together, we'll look at different artistic movements, from the Renaissance to Impressionism, Cubism, Surrealism, and contemporary art. . If classical music interests you, we can explore the masterpieces of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Debussy, and Stravinsky, learning how their music shaped history and still influences artists today. History connects everything. From Ancient Greece and Rome to the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the French Revolution, World War I and II, the Cold War, and modern global events, we can explore the people, ideas, and moments that changed the world. My tutoring style is friendly, interactive, and based on conversation rather than memorization. I believe learning should be enjoyable, inspiring, and adapted to your interests. Whether you're preparing for school, improving your English through cultural topics, or simply expanding your knowledge for fun, I'm happy to help. No pressure, no boring lectures, just interesting conversations, great recommendations, and the chance to discover some of the most fascinating works of human creativity together.

Very thankful that our paths have crossed, Antoine is a mature, approachable young guy who knows a lot about filmmaking and writing screenplays. He has helped me out tremendously with my screenplay! He knows his stuff and has inspired me a lot. We will meet again soon :)

5/5 – Absolute superstar. If you want someone who can make your story soar, Dan is the person to call. He is incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of storytelling and provides insightful, actionable feedback. I couldn't recommend him more highly.

The lessons with Johnny are teaching me exactly what I was seeking to learn. He gets straight to the point and quickly shows me the best way to go for a particular effect in editing, which is what I was looking for.
