About Me
I am currently part-time teaching photo/video at IPAC Design Geneva and have been teaching all of last year’s school year as a substitute professor of Visual Arts at the Collège de Pinchat (Carouge, GE). From the outset, my teaching was very much appreciated by both students and the teaching staff, so I was chosen by the College of Pinchat to teach an optional course preparing for the entrance exams to the CFP Arts.
Holder of a Master’s degree in Fashion Design from the Haute Ecole d’Art et de Design (HEAD) of Geneva and having launched my brand of ethical and sustainable clothing in 2018, I have all academic, technical and practical bases necessary to teach young pupils of primary and secondary school and adults. In addition, two years in a row, I have had the pleasure of giving private lessons to young students to prepare them to the HEAD-Geneva entrance exams.
It was a revelation to discover my taste for pedagogy, listening and the patience involved in transmitting knowledge. To feel that a student gains independence through my teaching is both a great satisfaction and a real privilege.

More and more people want to make their clothes themselves. I jumped the pace a year ago and I want to help those who are in this process.

The course is done at home, on the basis of a concrete project.

Take the measurements?
Where to get the bosses?
How to read a boss and basic instructions?
How to make simple adaptations of boss if necessary?
Which theoretical books and manuals to get?
How to use my machine?
What fabric for which project?
etc.

The idea is to make it easier for you to get up and running quickly!

Whether you're in the hand or have a machine you've never learned to use, sewing is a cost-effective and efficient way to mend your favorite clothes, patch up your curtains, or even adjust a garment not exactly the right size without go through a tailor.

I could teach you some techniques for repairing fabrics by hand, or I could teach you how to use a sewing machine.
