Into Film Clubs
Find out everything you need to know about starting an Into Film Club.
Archie (aged 16) has been an integral part of Into Film for a long time now. As well as being nominated for Reviewer of the Year at both the 2019 and 2020 Into Film Awards, and recently completing a hugely successful two year run as one of our Young Reporters, Archie is also one of our most prolific film reviewers - with 154 reviews and counting posted on our website!
Making this all-the-more impressive is that Archie has been independently completing his studies at home for the past three years, after his mother developed a long term health issue that meant he could no longer make the 45 minute journey to school every day. Archie adapted incredibly well to his new situation, ultimately passing his GCSEs early at ages 14 and 15 and achieving exceptional marks in the process.
With the majority of schools across the UK closed at the moment due to the ongoing Coronavirus/COVID-19 situation, many more young people are having to face a similar challenge, which puts Archie in a unique position to impart some wisdom on how to make the most of studying from home. Check out his top tips below!
Archie plans out weekly, monthly and yearly learning targets for himself, setting an objective and managing study time accordingly. He's been focused and tenacious and absolutely deserves his outstanding GCSE results, including A** and A* grades. With self-discipline and a desire to learn, the sky really is the limit to what's possible studying from home.
