Information about Joseph
I graduated the University of Dundee with a 1st Class MA in English and Film Studies in 2015 and an MLitt with Distiction in Film Studies in 2016, during which five years my biggest regret was not picking up any of the Scottish accent. I specialised in my course in cross-media, adaptation, and genre fiction, and I try my best to bring that adaptability and fun to the classroom.
I have recently completed certificates in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (the TEFL Org) and Screenwriting (the NFTS).
I have freelance tutored English Literature and Language and worked as a Part-Time Drama Teacher with the Helen O`Grady Drama Academy. I am pleased to say that all my students saw a marked increase in their confidence, command of the English language, and knowledge of narrative culture.
Feel free to contact me if you are interested in discussing further how I might be able to help you develop skills in English Language, narrative media, and performance.
