Jerome Cargill

I've made it back to NZ (Auckland this time) ready for the classroom next week. It's good to be back. I've written some reflections on the rollercoaster ride that was teaching in the UK. It feels like I've escaped in more ways than one. cargillsclassroom.wordpress.com/2021/07/22/ref…

I’m not quite sure how to explain what’s happened tonight, because it’s still happening - but here goes… At 4:40pm I jumped on a train from London to Edinburgh.. It was comfy, it was quiet In hindsight, too good to last…

@nzff @Ticketmaster_NZ Thanks heaps. I had a window where I got some tickets but now the 'purchase multiple tickets' function appears to have crashed.

@chicargill @Ticketmaster_NZ Kia ora Jerome! We are offering seat selection this year; however, Ticketmaster automatically turns off select-your-own seat functionality if the site experiences heavy traffic. It'll come back live as traffic slows down. Just lots of film fans in Tāmaki buying tickets right now!

🎟🎉 Tāmaki Makaurau! It’s time to review your wish list and map out your calendar – tickets for #NZIFF2023 in Auckland are ON SALE NOW via @Ticketmaster_NZ!

Set out on a long walk and turned the playback speed down to 1.0x for this outstanding listen. Another remarkable edition of the cinematologists. Loved the historical perspective and numerous insights. Bookmarked for a revisit someday in the future!

"Gender critical" leader, Posie Parker has said that she never loses, and she will "annihilate" any woman - including GC women - who stand in her way. She failed to hold her anti-trans rally in Auckland today, and she is now leaving New Zealand early. Here's what happened. 1/

@maxdnharris Best film of 2022. Will return to it often.

Hardest Oscars to predict ever? So many 50-50 calls. chicargill.wordpress.com/2023/03/11/osc…

So grateful to have had the opportunity to pick the brains of Instructional Coaching expert @Josh_CPD and be coached by him! It was a super juicy conversation, covering some of most sensitive areas of coaching and I learnt so much. 5 takeaways 🧵👇 Pod: ollielovell.com/errr/joshgoodr…

Congratulations Catherine. Absolutely outstanding news to read on the first day of 2023!

Great to hear the team back together. Lots of insight here that cuts through all the twitter noise. A really refreshing listen after reading all the overcooked takes.

@TomDavidson09 Given the increase in contributors and the emphasis on diverse demographics, I think the change you've highlighted actually lacks the overall drama many have characterised it as.

Teaching is so weird because nobody seems to want to talk about how to explain things... which seems like it'd be something we'd talk a whole lot about. There are a few things I've learned from research into clarity of explanations that I wish I'd been taught earlier 1/

Over the last 12 months I've devoured hundreds of cracking edutwitter threads. To ease you into the new term, here's 40 of the finest: ↓

I grew up in Pakistan, which gets really, really unbearably hot in the summer. Here are some tips on how to manage the heat. 🧵

Another fascinating discussion to cap off another outstanding season.

After Sundance and Cannes success, 'All That Breathes' must be as much of documentary frontrunner for the 2023 Oscars as you can this far out. Would love to see it in the conversation for cinematography as well. It is absolutely beautiful.

Spent yesterday at the @CivicTheatreAkl for @Docedge. 'All That Breathes', 'Nelly & Nadine' and 'Girl Gang' were highlights. Recommend catching any of these on the virtual cinema in the next fortnight.
