I have just over a years experience as a tutor for 8-18 year olds (Also occasionally adults) in technical Painting and Drawing techniques in a full time position.

I can teach observational drawing, an essential skill for any future artist no matter of the particular interests of the individual; this is because learning to really see, and use drawing and painting techniques in various media to portray the subject matter provides a necessary basis for development of understanding theory, development of ideas and most importantly the fun part of art, experimentation!

I have supported students in building portfolios for art scholarships for secondary schools; as well as for their GCSE's and A-levels where we can look in depth at objectives such as theory, idea development and experimentation as mentioned above.

Throughout my years experience I have had the pleasure of working with many charismatic young peoples, as well as students with special educational needs such as ASD and ADHD, which has taught me valuable skills in aiding the students to achieve their maximum potential according to their unique needs and learning styles.

I have an art practice of my own which I use for personal therapeutic and growth purposes; I mainly use painting, drawing, writing and sculpture, which helps me with regulating emotions, relieving stress and serves to bring me pleasure and joy in my life. I only hope to help and inspire others to use this beautiful skill of creativity to bring joy into their own lives.
