I offer individual tuition on a weekly, fortnightly or a whenever-you-need-it basis! Not everyone needs a lesson every week as it gives time for experimentation and individual practice.
Regular sessions tailored to your requirements. Small groups of up to 5 for a sociable friendly atmosphere whilst learning.
Who do I teach?
- Beginners – if you have never had a go and are a little nervous, I will gently and patiently introduce you to any of the techniques of your choice.
- Improvers – more advanced tuition in specific areas where needed.
- GCSE and A level students – if you are getting ready for exams, or need help with your portfolio.
- Primary and Secondary School children who are passionate about art and want to learn and improve.
