Assessment
Creativity is a very personalized process, I encourage my students to take "Progress photos" so that when done, they can look back at how they transformed a black canvas into a painting. These photos are a great visual documentation of their learning. In a year or 5 years, they can look back at their photos and realize how far their skills have come. Thus boosting their morale/ self-esteem to do more creative things.

WHAT DO I DO NEXT?

1) CHOOSE YOUR SESSION TIME and ENROLL
Parent and student will choose the projects they want to learn and what level will be taught. Communication is key so please let me know what you expect and any concerns or directions you want to go. Send me examples of ideas you want to paint

2) If you want a different day, a longer length of the lesson, or you want to plan a virtual party. Please message me with information about what you'd like to learn and the date you are interested in. I am in San Diego, CA which is Pacific Time Zone.
I will create a private section for you and send you the link, plus a recommended supply list if needed. 

Through simple step-by-step instruction, the learner will have a nice foundation to continue on their creative journey. Lovejoy has a very patient and encouraging teaching style, she understands that painting/creativity is unique to each person. She is able to give personalized feedback based on where each student is. Painting is like handwriting, each person has their own unique style.

Lessons will be delivered via weekly live 50 min session & Video instruction:
After each live session, a pre-recorded video will be provided to reinforce what was discussed in the live session. The student is encouraged to create outside of the live sessions & ask their questions at the next session 
Pre-recorded videos will be shared via a Youtube link, (Outschool embeds the link on its platform so that learners remain on the Outschool platform and don’t access the YouTube website.) 
  
FYI- Outschool policy - 
*According to Outschool policy, all students need to be registered separately or acquire a special link from Lovejoy for the sibling to join the session. If they are not, they are to be placed in the waiting room until the parent can make arrangements to register the extra learners.  We understand the desire for friends or siblings to watch, but if two children are participating under one registration, they will be sent back to the waiting room per Outschool policy. One child per registration. It is acceptable for registered learners to share a screen!

* I do not offer refunds or transfers 24 hours before class time. I adhere to the Outschool refund and transfer policy stated here: “Full refund or class-to-class transfer within 24 hours of the class start time.” If you miss the class you are given the opportunity to view the class recording found on the classroom page.
