Class experience
US Grade 8 - 11
We may cheer for the hero, but it is a good villain that drives the story and makes a movie great. In this 15-week, ongoing course, we will examine, analyze, and discuss a different villain (and film) each week. Many factors were taken into consideration in choosing the villains, including multiple ranking lists, teacher preference, and social impact. Another key factor was choosing characters and films that students are less likely to be familiar with (eg: "the one who shall not be named"...
This class is taught in English.
Students will be able to... Identify and explain character archetypes. Identify and explain symbolic representations in film and literature. formulate character descriptions, profiles, and analysis both on a surface level and in depth. understand what makes a good villain a good villain and how that villain drives the story. understand and analyze the inner workings of a villain and what makes them a villain, on a personal and psychological level.
I have been a high school English teacher and speech and debate coach for almost 20 years.

"I am not the teacher that you are looking for," as I wave my hand ever so slightly. I will not fill your students with rainbows and sunshine. I am not super high tech in the computer age. I don't offer fluff and I have no gimmicks. No puppies,...
