Joe’s brand new poetry course has kicked off for 2026.

Delivered with a signature style of tutoring, in which he uses conversational language and storytelling to communicate academic ideas — and a blend of live video, written coursework and detailed feedback to help you get across the how, why and hrmm of poetic expression as simply and enjoyably as possible.

The course focuses on…

● The power of language. Why some poems work and others don’t — and why, after centuries of poetry, it remains among the most memorable, exciting and profound of the artforms.

● The musicality of poems. The rhythms and tempos that make poetry breathe and come to life.

● The connection poetry creates between people. The common experiences that echo throughout human lives, and how poems speak to these hidden, connective threads.

● Absolutely no use of AI in any way. 100% human interaction.
