Holly Degavre

With a decade of experience as an art teacher, I've had the privilege of teaching students ranging from age 4 to age 18. My expertise includes preparing students for GCSE and A-level exams, ensuring they not only meet but exceed their academic goals. As a former Head of Department, I led my team with a commitment to fostering a fun and creative learning environment. My lessons are designed to engage and inspire, nurturing each student's unique artistic abilities while providing the technical skills they need to succeed.

Throughout my career, I’ve always believed that art education should be dynamic and enjoyable. By incorporating a variety of teaching methods and artistic techniques, I aim to keep my students excited about learning. My classroom is a space where creativity is encouraged, and every student feels valued. I strive to understand each student's individual interests and strengths, tailoring my lessons to support their personal growth.

One of my greatest joys as a teacher has been witnessing the transformation of my students from tentative beginners to confident, expressive artists. Whether working on foundational skills with younger children or guiding older students through complex projects, I approach each lesson with enthusiasm and dedication. My goal is to help my students develop a lifelong love for art, equipping them with the confidence and skills to pursue their artistic passions, both academically and personally. I am passionate about fostering creativity and providing a supportive, enriching environment for all my students.

I can't wait to create some masterpieces with you!
