Introduction to Journalism / Introduction to Journalism
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Journalism has been, is, and will be an ever-evolving activity, in a world that we know as changing. History records that the fundamental form of communication at the dawn of humanity was oral-written, but in the recent past, journalistic activity found an expansion in film, television, and radio. However, Teletext and the digital press open up a formidable field of possibilities for communications in the 21st century. So the historical panorama of journalism is broad enough to write much more than just a chronicle.Do you want to be a journalist? Do you want to learn the ins and outs of this activity as old as it is necessary? In the Introduction to Journalism class, you will have the basic tools to train yourself as an excellent communicator. As a journalist and graduate student, I am interested in academic research in the areas of Humanities and Social Sciences, as well as historical, philosophical, linguistic and communicative research on the media, and my main goal now is to continue studying this and other gnoseological phenomena in various postgraduate lines.
Join my class! In the end, life is a beautiful chronicle, and you will have the tools to describe it.

About Me
I recently graduated with a Journalism degree, from the Universidad Central “Marta Abreu” de Las Villas (Central University “Marta Abreu” of Las Villas), Cuba, with excellent results and with honors, as I obtained a 4.90 GPA (from a 5.0 scale) that qualified me to hold the Título de Oro (Golden Title). Furthermore, I was recognized by the academic institution with the Premio al Mérito Científico-Técnico (Scientific-Technical Merit Award).During the course of my higher education, I received awards and recognitions in scientific forums, colloquiums, symposia and competitions. I published as a co-author a scientific article in Estudios sobre el mensaje periodístico, of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Complutense University of Madrid), Spain [indexed in Scopus: 23 (2), 2017, pages 709-726]. I also participated as a Peer Evaluator for the publication of an article at Revista de Estudios Sociales Contemporáneos, of the Universidad Nacional de Cuyo (National University of Cuyo), Argentina (No. 20, June 2019).
Since September 2019, I work as a journalist at an importante Cuban radio station. I not only master my native language, Spanish, but I fluently speak English and French. I also have experience with various audiovisual and text editing programs, and especially with the Sony Vegas and Adobe packages, as well as the usual office supports.
Currently, I am studying a master’s degree in Political Science, at the Central University “Marta Abreu” of Las Villas. In fact, I am one of the authors of the book Enfoques críticos sobre la teoría y la práctica políticas en América Latina del siglo XXI (Critical Approaches to Political Theory and Practice in Latin America in the XXI Century), the second collective book of the master’s degree in Political Science at the Central University “Marta Abreu” of Las Villas, prepared primarily with the contributions of students and professors belonging to its third edition.
I am interested in scientific publications in the areas of Humanities and Social Sciences, as well as historical, philosophical, linguistic and communication research on the media. In fact, my degree thesis dealt with the discursive construction of Westernity in the news agencies Reuters, Sputnik and Notimex, and I aim to continue studying this and other gnoseological phenomena in several postgraduate courses.
I recently accomplished an online postgraduate course, entitled “Violencias contra las mujeres y radios por la no violencia” (“Violence against women and radio stations for non-violence”), sponsored by the association Radialistas Apasionadas y Apasionados (based in Quito, Ecuador), which allowed me to associate my knowledge about the feminist struggle with my work in the media. In April 2021 I will begin to study the online specialization on Epistemologías del Sur (Epistemologies of the South), in conjunction with the Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales (Latin American Council of Social Sciences, CLACSO), the Centro de Estudios Sociales (Centre for Social Studies, CES) and the Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales (Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences, FLACSO Brazil).
It should be noted that I am a pre-admitted student in the Máster Universitario en Estudios Humanísticos y Sociales (Master’s Degree in Humanistic and Social Studies), at the Universitat Abat Oliba CEU (Abat Oliba CEU University), in Barcelona, and I am in the process of formalizing my enrollment to begin my studies around September of this year.

✅ SEMIOLOGY, 'BEHAVIORALISM' ('BEHAVIORAL' ANALYSIS, 'PROFILING') IN THE SERVICE OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION AND SPEAKING 🚀➤ A follower of the "message beneath the message", as Roland Barthes would say, the semiologist is above all a detective of language and helps you in this sense: he sees meaning, deciphers and carefully analyzes the signs that surround him to interpret their meaning, reports on the effects of meaning, the connotations and the implicit present in the communication. He starts from the surface signs visible to all to bring out the latent meanings. His interest is most often focused on the phenomena "on the margin", at first glance not very significant, which are located behind the scenes, rather than on stage. In short, all these elements not necessarily visible at first glance.
What applies to semiological analysis? Everything: Images, logos, websites, gestures, behaviors, words, speeches, symbols, spaces, in short everything that allows humanity to communicate. On the other hand, the semiological method cannot be invented since it is very specific. Like an iceberg, it is a question of going from superficial and visible signs to latent signs and meanings.
➤ A fascinating discipline, semiology and the analysis of gestures, behaviors and verbal & non-verbal language allows us to decipher the signs of our personal and professional daily lives. In a political speech, on an advertisement, or through our gestures in the professional and personal context, our words and behaviors, the narration of signs mark a certain relationship to the world.
➤ By learning to dissect the meaning of words and gestures, semiology allows us to take a particular look at the coherence of communication and its relevance (versus the opposite), to understand the details of our own speech, and then to make good use of it.
➤ Thus, from the semiological methodology (rigorous, specific, objectifying), verbal, graphic, symbolic and behavioral identities can emerge.
➤ Finally, semiology is neither a matter of philosophy (it only operates from one or more corpora, concrete materials to be analyzed) nor of psychology (it is less interested in intentions than in the signs produced). It is an analysis, a look at one's own communication and that of others which allows one to react better intuitively.
➤ This is why these sessions are intended to be above all practical: filmed exercises, analysis of images to be dissected and then implementation of techniques / tools / methodology which will help you in your daily life, to improve your verbal and non-verbal language but also to decipher and understand that of others.
➤ Among the content browsed:
1) identify and act on behaviors:
-transmission of acquired knowledge on non-verbal communication in order to quickly detect intentions
-immersive team-building mode to bring out helpful behaviors (despite the saboteurs)
2) Profiling - Diagnose and guide based on a written or visual corpus:
-build the storytelling
-bring out a type of profile
-understand insights
3) Brand Strategy - Create a new brand, company or personal positioning
4) Concrete techniques & a targeted methodology for:
✓Acquire practical tools to improve your rhetoric/repartee
✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders
✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of oratorical art (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma, etc.) to ensure consistency between content and the form
✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing.
✓ Highlighting their speech & promoting their speaking to arouse interest, by building on their strengths.
✓Creation of a coherence between the message emitted & the message received in order to improve its speech and in fact, its professional/personal relations.
✓Management of Q&A sessions & external reactions during an intervention or an oral exchange.
✓Practical tools to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested.
✓To succeed in a negotiation/mediation.
✓On the one hand, learning to say 'no' simply in three steps AND on the other hand, getting people to say 'yes'.
✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive.
✓To manage conflicts (eg 'assertive' communication techniques, eg CNV techniques - Non Violent Communication).
✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of communication.
✓To adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language.
✓To use sentences, turns of phrase & expressions allowing to be precise, simple, effective & challenging.
✓To manage your personal & professional relationships with, for example, the preparation of your ratings.
✓Make your hypersensitivity a strength to tame your abilities.
✓Listening proactively and expressing / conveying ideas / message clearly.
✓Avoid letting your emotions show and propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills.
✓Be better equipped to recognize and immediately remedy situations that weaken their authority and affect their ability to communicate effectively.
✓Enhance their potential for expression and creativity (often underestimated until now) and 'apparent' sociability
✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech.
✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.
✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image.
✓Practical techniques to foster the engagement of the other party.
✓Strengthen the structure of its communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell its ideas and projects.
✓ Optimizing internal and external relationships are professional fundamentals so that the structure of sessions, business dialogue and mastery of change communication are valuable.
✓ Decode advertisements, logos and slogans, Understand the impact of images and symbols on our emotions, Analyze cultural trends across the media, Create your own visual messages with formidable efficiency
✓ Analysis of non-verbal communication:
- paralinguistic level: voice analysis, intonations, speech rate (...)
- proxemic level: analysis of the distance between bodies/individuals
- kinesic level: analysis of postures, gestures and facial expressions
- infralinguistic level: analysis of physiological changes (dilation of pupils, blushing, sweating, etc.)
- symbolic level: analysis of what adorns the body such as clothing, badges, tattoos (...)
➤ The semiologist or semiotician is led to specialize in certain universes, whether it is luxury, mass consumption or behavioral and body dynamics. His analyst side (linguist, semantician, semiologist, semiotician) and lecturer on the themes of negotiation and non-verbal communication will support your approach.
➤ So, discover the hidden secrets of signs if you are curious to understand the mechanisms behind advertisements, works of art, films or even social networks, if you want to learn to decipher hidden messages and analyze the signs that influence our thoughts and actions on a daily basis. As part of a fun and interactive learning experience, with concrete exercises for a captivating immersion.
➤ In short, in a context guided by the tools of semiology, the ability to speak in public is today an essential transversal skill to assert oneself, inform, negotiate and convince. However, to master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to strengthen the impact of one's own speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and expectations of the audience; by making an impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by integrating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an attractive and convincing presentation framework; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; by adequately managing difficult situations (...).
➤ Whether your goal is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction), an emotion and above all techniques, tools, a method, a know-how, reflecting the involvement of the speaker in his speech, all guided by the principles of semiology and behavioral analysis.
➤ So, how do you listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and make an impression, enhance your content, address your audience appropriately and optimize the quality and clarity of the exchange/message? It is precisely about going through, implementing and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, simple intervention or 'one to one` exchange, aimed at challenging your audience or interlocutor, taking care of the content as well as the form, all in a professional or personal setting. For this, there are verbal and non-verbal communication techniques, based on semiology.
➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, assurance, ease by overcoming embarrassment and controlling emotion in public. But also to work on leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication, all based on the founding principles of semiology.
➤ To master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to master certain practical aspects of semiology, to strengthen the impact of your speeches: by structuring your interventions and taking into account the circumstances and expectations of the audience; by making an impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by integrating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an attractive and convincing presentation framework; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; by adequately managing difficult situations (...).
➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your daily situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can apply them immediately, and from the 1st session.

Creative writing for all - begin or continue your journeyIf you are serious about writing, it needs to be worked on in conversation with others, as well as on your own. You may have written for a long time, or just be taking a first step to find a safe environment to share your work with someone else. Writing can be such an enriching practice (which may even transform your life), but this doesn't mean it is easy or fulfilling all the way.

Telling the truth: Creative writing for radical transformationThis class will assist you in accessing the layer of your being which knows exactly what needs to be said, and exactly how to say it. This is a place where words flow like liquid, a layer of the viscera of our energetic bodies where the truth rises through us like sap. We have all been entrained to fear telling the truth, and for a lot of us, that fear interferes with our ability to access this place of knowing. It is the place that prophecy comes from and it is both within us and part of us, but what comes through it is not just of us- it is a flow of honesty which carries the nutrition that the system we are a part of needs.
I will attune to your process and find the places where tweaks, breath, or attention may provide a fulcrum around which your system can reorient to change, and bring you more frequently and more fully to this place of connection.
Please note, my prices are heavily discounted for the moment while I'm workshopping this material- my next group of students will be integral to helping develop the material, so the hourly rate reflects that!

2) Building an emancipated studying manner to understand how all social science and humanities disciplines stem from specific patterns of reasoning common in all disciplines.
Advice on how to turn an application/exam into an admission for students who wish to enter British, French, Dutch and Greek Universities is included in the lessons.
*If you are interested in language lessons please note that I offer lessons in ancient, medieval and modern Greek*

Grow your Confidence: Creative Writing for School Students (KS1-KS4)Creative writing can be a difficult skill for some people to learn, but these lessons will help your child grow to love the process behind coming up with an exciting piece of creative writing.
These lessons focus on the school curriculum, drawing from often studied literary genres and coming up with creative responses to them. We might write in the gothic style, maybe a short mystery or even some travel writing! You will learn to expand your descriptive vocabulary and the building blocks which come together to form any good story.

Find YOUR Creative Voice – with 2 x published author, poet, and educator, Seki Are you passionate about poetry, drama and literature? Want to develop your writing skills with a creative and inspiring mentor? Join me in my engaging and dynamic classes, where I combine my experience as a published author, performance poet and playwright with a deep love for teaching.
I've had the privilege of performing poetry alongside jazz musicians, blending the rhythm of words with the energy of live music, creating truly immersive and evocative experiences. My theatre productions have brought together storytelling, dance, poetry and rap to create hilarious and heartbreaking narratives that left audiences buzzing. I draw on all of this experience in my classes. My workshops are designed to help you explore your creative literary practice in innovative ways, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned writer looking to refine your craft.
In addition to my performances, I've taught poetry workshops in schools and creative writing at the prestigious Leeds Playhouse. I’ve worked with diverse groups of students and writers of all ages. I specialise in creating a supportive and creative space for you to experiment with your voice, learn from classic and contemporary works, and gain practical skills to elevate your writing.

- Insight into the craft of poetry, prose and drama from a published author, poet and playwright.
- The opportunity to experiment with different styles, from formal verse to free verse, prose to performance.

- Techniques for writing that combine creativity with technical skill.
