Artists wishing to explore the aesthetic of classical life poses, the fluidity of dance/movement and more unusual physically demanding short term photographic poses will be guided through the alchemy of photo composition using light, angle and shadow. Studio lighting, in tandem with filters and reflectors, enables us to explore ‘in-camera:’ framing a shot, perspective, subtleties and nuances of colour playing on the human form, plus the impact of angle and degree of light and shadow (chiaroscuro). Essential knowledge of your own camera, whether it is compact, bridge or DSLR, includes how to access: shutter priority, aperture priority, ISO and exposure compensation, to maximise the potential of the shoot.

I am a Mechanical Engineer and completed by degree with distinction. Maths was one of my favourite subjects in School & Engineering College. My daughter is in Year 2. During this COVID-19 lockdown, I started teaching my daughter as I realised she was not upto the mark in Maths skills. I was so busy in my normal job that it never struck me that my daughter needed help with her Maths. In last 2 months we both have worked very hard on her Maths. I can now confidently say that she has become very good in Maths and we both feel proud about it. I have now even started with Year 3 Maths with her so that when she starts her school in September, she is already familiar with it. She is becoming more and more confident and I feel good about it. This is the best job I have done in this lockdown period and I am so happy to see my kid happy and confident. I now want to share what I have learnt with my daughter with any other kids who might want some assistance to brush up their Maths skills. It is very important to have a strong Maths base as that helps with their confidence and to do better in senior classes. I plan to take only few kids to start with for online teaching. After 2 months of hard work with my daughter, I have my own tricks and games to help develop the skills needed for good Maths foundation for any kid out there who wants to be good and confident in Maths. Also as this is aimed for primary kids, the each online class will be for half an hour. What I have realised with my daughter is that she is best first half an hour and then she starts to loose focus and gets tired. So ideally what I am aiming for is a half hour class where we will cover one Math skill and questions on that skill. Also I will give them homework on that skill for which there would be a deadline to return so that I can see where they are progressing and where they need more support. With my daughter I also do 15 minutes of mental maths every day. This is very important for continuous progression and learning. If you will opt for this session too then I can explain it over the phone call how it will works. If what I have mentioned above interests you, please feel free to call me for a chat and I will be happy to take you through the process of how we can achieve the best results for your kids. Thankyou for your time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you. Many thanks Sachin
