El poema del saltamontes: descomponerlo para construirlo (análisis y debate)
Una clase de poesía única en la que se utilizará el infame poema "GRASSHOPPER" de EE Cummings. Después de una "lectura" introductoria, se les pedirá a los estudiantes que analicen e interpreten esta forma confusa de poesía.

Learn about one of the most challenging topics in poetry: how to interpret a poem that "contains typographical, grammatical, and syntactical eccentricities" (poemanalysis.com). This poem is experimental to the point of being almost unreadable; a true challenge for those looking to flex their English comprehension skills! The class will be a short, deep dive into a compelling example of free form poetry and its analysis, similar to the experience of sitting in on a university class. We will explore different interpretations, engage in discussion, and look at the different techniques the poet used (and why he used them). Topics will include the poem's structure, vertical vs. horizontal reading, broken sentences & words, use of spacing, "Is this a concrete poem", and a final conversation about the artistic choices in this poem and their effect on the reader.

On a serious note, my philosophy of teaching is based on the personal belief that any subject can be exciting, given a good teacher. I strive to encourage curiousity and love of learning in all my students, and I hope that by guiding young minds to achieve greatness, the next generation will be kinder, wiser, and happier.
Also, I am an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and a member of the aforementioned community, so if that bothers you, I would respectfully suggest choosing a different teacher. ^_^b
I have twelve years of ESL tutoring experience (adults and children), as well as one-on-one tutoring with young people and kids with special needs (core curriculum). I have a B.A. in English and many years as an editor for university-level publications.
I'm an educator by nature, and my main goal is to make learning fun (while making sure the facts are accurately presented). My main resource is flexibility; everyone learns differently, and sometimes all it takes is a little extra time and effort for things to click. One-on-one tutoring is my favourite form of teaching, so please let me know if there's anything I can do for you!
P.S. Although I currently have turned off auto-scheduling, if you have any requests for a class, please don't hesitate to reach out! I will try to accommodate every request. Thanks! :)Reseñas
