About

Welcome! Our club is for those who are passionate in forms of creative media - whether it's music, podcasts, games, anime, comics, film, literature or art, all is here! 🎨 We will pick a form of creative media to analyze together through voting, consume the piece in our own time and create an analysis then after a week or two we will discuss our interpretations, what we loved about it and decide on what to analyze next. We encourage an open environment as there is no one right way to consume media and there is no one correct interpretations, the point of this club is to discuss possibilities and find fascination in each other's different views!

✨Late members are always welcome✨

Tutor Qualifications

About the Tutors

Hello! I am an ocean loving homeschooler from Indonesia following the Cambridge curriculum. I have finished my English as a First Language and Business IGCSEs and I will be taking Environmental Management, Maths and ICT soon. I am also currently doing my Psychology and English Language A-Levels. I want to pursue media studies as a major and study abroad some day. My favorite things to learn about are: writing, psychology, media and marine bio! Feel free to message me if you need help!
