- The creative process
- Recording and documenting research
- Art techniques

Alternatively, topics can be formulated based on the initial needs analysis.

I can help provide extra tuition to students working towards GCSE, A-Level, and Higher Education courses in Art, Art and Design, and/or similar topics.

*If you're a student, my courses can be matched against specific curriculum models. You should first consult with your school/college to find out who the awarding body is for your exam, prior to starting ANY extra private tuition.

**I can also help around exam preparation, especially around coping strategies with exam-related anxiety and stress.

About Me

My career started in 1994 as an Apprentice studying I.T. and Graphic Design. Towards the end of my course the college recognized my potential and took me on as a junior technician - to begin with! Little did I know they had other plans for me!

After a short while I was (literally!) thrown in the deep end, being introduced to a group of 20 adults as their new tutor!
The room was hot, humid, and noisy with an OHP motoring away. I was 18 at the time and loved every minute of the opportunity!

After four years I moved on to pursue a career as a freelance web and graphic designer. From this point my career splintered, where I took on further employment in education teaching and training students, trainees, and apprentices, but I also remained active as a freelancer offering my services as a creative marketing executive.

More recently I set up two tech companies; one offering full-service marketing solutions to small businesses, and the other a Government approved Apprenticeship training provider.

I have led small teams, managed business finances, and at a time when colleges were spending thousands, if not millions on bid writers, I single handedly wrote tenders that led my business to being successfully entered on to TWO separate Government training registers.

Whilst working in education I have delivered training covering a comprehensive range of topics, from business admin and customer service, to leadership, management, and digital marketing. I have delivered to small and large groups, 1:1, online, and in-person.

Whilst running my tech companies I hosted and spoke at a number of business conferences, promoting the benefits of Apprenticeships to an audience comprising a mix of parents, young adults, business executives, and workers from local support agencies.

To date I have achieved a number of personal accolades and rewards for my work ethic and conduct. This includes - but not limited to:
- coming as a runner-up on a Youth Trainee of the Year award
- winning 'Assessor of the Year' for two consecutive years running
- and consistently achieving Ofsted Grade 1 for my training and delivery.

In my personal life I have been an avid painter, drawer, and artist since an early age. I studied art as a student at college and plan to fulfill my ambition of achieving a degree in art and design.

From September 2020 I will be working towards an A-Level in Psychology, as well as an 8-week MBCT course in Mindfulness, which will help me go on to complete a degree in Mindfulness at a later stage. My life-long ambition is to combine my interests in the Universe, mindful living, art and psychology to offer art as a form of therapy to those suffering with anxiety, depression, stress, and other mental health issues.

I am also extremely spiritual. I have a strong sense of compassion and a deep belief in the Universe, its power, and our place in it. I have a daily practice of yoga, meditation, and energy alignment.

My prime aim is to provide non-judgmental tuition that is designed specifically for you, and from a place of safety, respect, and compassion. During the initial free consultation, we will establish your learning needs, sources and triggers of stress and anxiety, and set a starting point. I will then compile a training plan with clearly defined SMART goals, session aims, timescale, and a proposed number of sessions. Each session is one hour long; so you are in control of both pace and price. You are also in complete control of what you want to talk about and discuss. What we cover together will largely depend on your personal needs, but essentially the areas we could look at and cover could include: - Your sources and triggers of stress and anxiety - Power of positive (and negative) thinking - Coping strategies and techniques - Past history, relationships, and experiences - Traumas and childhood development - Sibling rivalry. We could factor in any of the following strategies and techniques into our tuition, where I can give you help on: - Visualization - Breathing - Mindfulness - Relaxation - Meditation (guided and unguided) - Art therapy - Journaling. Additionally, we can also incorporate lifestyle, diet, work/life balance, and other aspects of your life into the program, if you so wish. Other practices and methods you may find helpful could include: - Looking at yoga, pilates, and other fitness regimes - Chakra realignment - Energy realignment - Frequency alignment - Healing crystals and stones - Gratitude diary - Positive affirmations and reinforcement - Mood boards The techniques and methods I teach can be used by anyone of all ages and from any background. Maybe you are an individual who feels anxious about taking tests and exams, or someone feeling stressed and under pressure at work. Maybe you are a parent feeling like you cannot cope with juggling the many roles expected of you as a parent! The point is that anyone and everyone suffers from some form of stress, anxiety, and even depression at some point in their lives. The trick is how we deal with that and not let it take control of our emotional states. THAT is what we will try to cover together. You are not alone!

If you are new to running a business, or are about to set up one for the first time - congratulations! - you may benefit from a more structured program that covers the main essentials and starting points. Or we can structure something more around the needs of your business or even your chosen industry.

MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen. I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist. I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns. In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on. You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns. Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Everyone learns differently. That's why I teach the way you want. You decide what you want to learn and how, including when your lesson takes place and how long it lasts. I teach art history to anyone who wants to, regardless of age or level, online or at my home in Velp.

I am trained as a musician/writer and am a second-degree teacher. I have over 10 years of experience in education and have been teaching art history, music history, creative writing and other subjects at the senior level of a small secondary school for a number of years, where I am also a team member.

Discover your way of drawing for all levels. Sketching, perspective, spatial imagination and intuitive drawing.
I have academic teaching experience from the TU Eindhoven, where I graduated in architecture.

My goal is to share my knowledge and passion for drawing while supporting you on your own creative path. I will focus on what feels natural for your growth. Individual approach is key to my method. Everyone can learn how to draw. You can, too! It is your unique perception, that calls you to be expressed on paper. Listen to that voice. Allow yourself to take care of your creative dream! Contact me today and let's begin!

Idris
Painting Tutor: Discover and develop your artistic language
I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London. Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don’t always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you! Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs. The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language. (Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it. But also be mindful that as we grow our interests can change and as they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.) Have questions? Don’t hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

Mariana
Creative Illustration and the Fundamentals of Drawing
I'll be teaching you the subjects I can see you have most difficulty with - be it figure drawing, perspective, concept art or even going back to fundamentals as a reminder. I do both traditional and digital art, so I can also teach you how to move from one media to another without fear! Before our first lesson - Do you have time for homework? - Do you prefer a more objective explanation as opposed to a more detailed one? - Do you prefer learning all the theory first and then practicing later all at once, or to take it in small chunks? - How experienced are you in art? - Do you prefer a more casual class or one that challenges you every time? Just a tiny PSA - if you're starting out from the very beginning with the fundamentals, please bear with me for a couple of classes because it will probably be super boring at first! I'll try to make it as entertaining as possible, but I'm (painfully) aware of how dull the more technical subjects can be. I PROMISE it will get better. Pinky promise.

Art for Everybody: A4E - Nurture your curiosity
Hello, hi :) I'm Mia, your future private art tutor if you're interested! I'm a visual artist working across different mediums, from more classical forms like drawing and painting to multimedia practices such as video and performance. I graduated from a high school of art and design in France, continued my studies at the School of Fine Arts in Geneva HEAD, and I'm currently finishing a specialization in choreography at the Academy of Theatre and Dance in Amsterdam. I'm offering a series of personalized art classes that can focus on various mediums, whether you're looking to explore new artistic tools, prepare for entrance exams to art schools, or simply nurture your curiosity. All ages and experience levels are welcome. Here are three class options to start with: Sketching and Drawing Learn the basics of observational drawing and graphic composition. We can focus on a specific subject or go on walks to observe and draw what we see in our surroundings. Video An introduction to video basics and editing software. We’ll explore how to use cameras in a raw, intuitive way and understand the logic behind lighting and other technical tools. Art School Preparation Guidance in building a portfolio, formatting and laying out documents, and exploring different printing techniques. Ideal for those preparing to apply to art schools or looking to expand their artistic practice. Feel free to reach out with questions or specific interests. I'm happy to adapt the classes to your needs.
