Creative writing - Poetry in English - Learn how to write beautiful poetry
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.

Learn Turkish language | from basic level to 16th century Turkish.
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.

English grammar, morphology, syntax. Poetry sonnet, rhyme, free verse.
Poetry is a way of life. Poetry allows you to express emotions, thoughts, and experiences in a creative and meaningful way. Poetry can help individuals develop their language skills, enhance their creativity, and gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them. Additionally, reading and writing poetry can be a therapeutic and cathartic process, providing a means of self-reflection and emotional release. English poetry has become phenomenal and has grown over the years, since the medieval times. I specialised in teaching English language as a second language, from grammar to composition. I am also enthusiastic about teaching poetry, showing people the beauty of writing, especially poetry.

Learn Poetry for everyone - from beginners to advanced
Poetry is a powerful tool to use to understand ourselves and the world around us better. It creates beautiful work from everything - nature, comedy, love, anger, grief - it allows us to process our emotions and to help others too. With poetry, you can teach others more about you or raise awareness of important issues, it is up to you what you make of it. You can go on to perform poetry or publish it in collections, even your own anthology. The world is truly your oyster.
In this class, we will be looking at how to write and perform poetry. How do we grab the attention of readers and the audience? As a winner of a spoken word competition and a published poet, I can teach you all you need to know about structure, rhythm, form and more! I have a fun and dynamic way of tutoring that is interactive and engaging!

Rhymes and charms: Exploring Spanish poetry through the centuries
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.

Learning Korean Language ( K-pop / K-Drama / K-Literature)
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!
