Paying it forward

Teaching philosophy

Every class room presents a unique community of learners that varies not only in abilities, but also in learning styles. My role as a teacher is to give students the tools with which to cultivate their own garden of knowledge. I will present a curriculum that involves the interests of the students and make learning relevant to their lives and future profession beyond the class room.

Course development

Through the course of my teaching I have been asked to develop new ways of looking at the process of learning the complex demand's of a film director. I have developed a smart phone film making course, a modern cinema studies program focusing on different genres. The commercial film making process and application, The directors chair, The producers chair.  Other courses are in the making as of this writing.

George also teaches film directing, film production, film studies and acting at The University of Toronto, The Raindance Film Institute, The Toronto Academy of Acting, and Humber College.
