From beginner to advanced students, Amy Pollman's TAB methodology allows each student to create the direction for their class. Students can sign up for one workshop and return again for more visits as they need or want. Each workshop will have a different learning goals based on the students needs. The class is constructed in a Reverse Classroom dynamic, which means one you let me know what you would like to study, I will hand craft a material appropriate lesson for you. The learner will review the material prior to class and we will go over it together in our time together. Students can then make the project and I will offer support in their process as needed. 

In addition to being a world traveled artist and educator, Amy Pollman has a MFA and MED in Art Education. She is a certified Visual Arts Teacher K-12 from the Ohio Department of Education. Currently she is a University Mentor of Art Education at Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio and also is an Instructor of Art at Monroe County Community College in Monroe, MI.

Homework Offered
The classes will be designed in a reversed classroom environment, maximizing student/teacher time and creating independent agency in the young artist (hence the shorter meeting period) This means the students will review resources and in some cases make something before our workshop commences. In other cases, students will learn new skills in our workshop and then work on their own to complete their specific goal. Additional workshops can be added to the project as desired. Once you sign up for my class you can message me as to what you want your learner may want to learn. I will follow up with some questions as needed and then prepare for your course pack. The course pack may contain some light reading about their subject, a watching a process video, making preliminary sketches, journaling, etc. The learner can then review the material before class, take time to acquire any needed supplies and join me at our scheduled time in the workshop for an Art for Artists experience! 
1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
