Class Experience
Beginner - Intermediate Level
Who is this class for? - Learners who enjoy creating art and want to have a solid art foundation. This is not for the learners that want to create crafts. - Learners wanting to practice their art in a calm and creative environment - Great for homeschooling families that want an art curriculum style while creating fun and educational projects Any required experience or knowledge learners need? Learners don't need to have any art background for this class, if they have zero art background the only requirement is that they have an interest in learning about art techniques and mediums, not only in a playful manner but in an educational way as well. How is your class structured? I love all things creative and so I have experience working with watercolor, acrylic, gouache, and mixed media! Since I have a passion for all things creative learners will have access to different topics. For some of these topics I will be providing reference pictures. The pictures will be pictures I've personally taken or from a commercial licensed site. Learners won't need to go to the site. I will post the picture file in the classroom and/or on the screen in during class. SAMPLE SCHEDULE (topics and schedule will depend on each learners age and interests!) 1st class: Understanding color and color mixing using acrylic paint (use red, blue, yellow) 2nd class: Introduction to watercolor. Learning basic to intermediate watercolor techniques (you will need salt for one of the activities) 3rd class : Painting still life objects in watercolor 4th class: Exploring artistic style using the supplies you have on hand ( you need a minimum of two different types of art supplies no more than 4. For example: Crayons & acrylic paint, or Color pencils, markers, and watercolor) 5th class: Abstract painting using acrylic paint 6th class:: Finding your color palette using watercolor 7th class:: Exploring composition using pencil 8th class: Still life drawing using markers, pens, and pencil How will you teach? I will do art demonstrations that learners can follow. They will be able to see through my overhead camera. I never want learners to copy me directly so their own style will always be welcomed. There maybe a few topics such as learning about color mixing where copying exactly what I am doing is necessary however.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Education from CSU
Greetings, learners and families!
I'm teacher Nazaret (pronounced nah-sah-reht), and I'm thrilled to be a part of the Outschool community. I officially joined Outschool in 2022, in the late fall of 2022 I embarked on my journey as a dedicated Outschool educator. Although my journey with Outschool is relatively fresh, my experience in teaching extends far beyond this platform.
With a rich educational background, I hold a BA degree in Psychology and an MA in Education-Counseling. My teaching experience encompasses a diverse range of learners, spanning from the littlest learners all the way to adult learners. My expertise lies not only in imparting essential life skills like career exploration, time management, and personal responsibility, but also in nurturing creativity through captivating mediums like painting and art journaling.
I'm more than an educator; I'm an artist with a vibrant creative journey. My passion flows through mixed media, acrylic, watercolor, and oil painting. Nature is my muse, and I often find myself wandering through arboretums, capturing its beauty through my lens. This love for photography finds its way into my artwork, enriching the creative tapestry that defines my style.
You can explore my artistic creations not only in the form of original pieces but also across an array of products like prints and stickers.
My creative exploration isn't confined to my personal pursuits. I extend my artistic wisdom to the realm of education, offering adult watercolor courses to both individuals and corporate groups. This holistic approach to teaching enables me to instill artistic skills while fostering personal growth and expression.
I'm not only fluent in both English (US) and Spanish (Mexico), but I'm also bicultural, embracing the unique nuances of each language and culture.
My teaching philosophy resonates with my own journey as a learner. Each learner carries a treasure trove of knowledge, and together, we uncover the gems within. I believe in nurturing confidence, particularly among introverted learners. I understand the challenge of stepping into the spotlight, and I'm committed to creating a comfortable space where learners can grow at their own pace. Whether it's camera breaks, voice alternatives, or personalized instruction, I collaborate closely with parents and learners to ensure a supportive and effective learning environment.
What do I aspire for my learners to gain from my classes? Three core pillars:
1. **Knowledge**: Bridging gaps, strengthening understanding, and embracing new knowledge.
2. **Confidence**: Empowering learners to believe in their abilities and fostering growth through self-assurance.
3. **Support**: Fostering a sense of co-creation and collaboration, making each learner an essential part of the educational journey.
