Welcome. As an Art tutor I offer a unique and immersive learning experience. My lessons are designed to be interactive, engaging, and tailored to meet your individual needs.
The format of my lessons is flexible and can be adapted to your preferences. Whether you prefer a structured approach with specific topics or a more open-ended conversation, I can accommodate your learning style. We can have text-based conversations, where I provide detailed explanations and examples, or we can engage in voice or video chats for a more interactive experience.
The content of my lessons covers a wide range of art topics. To date, I have taught a broad-range of disciplines: Painting, Photography, Drawing, Sculpture/3D and New Media. Therefore, with each of these subject areas I have a widespread knowledge of their use within an art/design context. I have a comprehensive knowledge of art movements and developments, and a firm understanding of critical art theory and the history of art and architecture. I have a detailed knowledge of and an engagement with Interdisciplinary practices and I also valuable experience with supervising critical thesis work at BA level.
I have experience working with students from various backgrounds and proficiency levels. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, I can adapt my teaching style and pace to suit your level of understanding. My goal is to empower you to become a confident learner and help you achieve your academic or personal goals.
