Historically film, and Hollywood screenwriters, and filmmaking, has been considered one of the most influential mediums on society as a whole and has continued to influence societies throughout the world. As a film critic with more than a decade of covering films, understanding film, the film industry, its evolution, origins, and blacklist period, its effects and influence on society, attending studio media days and seeing first-hand the advances across the medium, I am qualified to assist students seeking to understand film studies, the film industry, its history and influences.

Theater qualifications encompass a wide range from knowledge of stage plays and playwrights to actual training for theatrical presentation. Having studied at Circle in The Square Theater School, an acceptance by audition only thespian program, the curriculum consisted of study of Classical and Contemporary playwrights such as Shakespeare and Tennessee Williams and performance skills to bring the words to life. At the end of each year a scene night which showcased each student was performed in front of industry professionals. Additionally, we were required to study the history of theater as it evolved from ancient civilization through modern times and the evolution of performing styles. Having lived in New York City for some time, the home to Broadway allowed the opportunity to attend many Broadway plays.

Absolutely Amazing To Work With

I simply cannot say enough great things about Janet. After not having written college-level papers for several years, Janet got me back on track. Through her incredibly helpful feedback, reviews, and coaching, I went from a "B" in my last class to an "A" with my most recent. Whenever I needed her and her patience she was there and I am very grateful for her. I plan to start my Master’s Thesis soon and you better believe I'm going to keep working with Janet! An update: I just recently finished my Master's Thesis and Janet was instrumental in assisting me through each phase of the process, theory selection, research methods and design, literature review, and proofreading and review. Her tutelage significantly increased my research and writing abilities.
