This ongoing class will focus on developing the student's brush calligraphy technique through writing words and phrases. We will begin our classes with some warm ups to get accustomed to the different pressures needed for crafting words. Then, students will get a chance to practice words of their choosing. They will be able to follow along with me or venture on their own to create something unique! We will also discover simple techniques to achieve entirely new styles and play with colour. This class will have a separate video camera on my own work for students to follow along. It will be hands-on and relaxed, with lots of room for discussion and questions while we work. Students are encouraged to have taken "Calligraphy for Beginners" prior to enrolment (or to have some experience with brush lettering) due to the fact that we will be focusing less on the basic techniques in this class.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the basic techniques of brush calligraphy and develop their skill in writing visually fluid words and phrases.

Hi there! My name is Kelsi—I'm happy you stumbled upon my classroom!
In my classroom, I like to turn the phrase "jack of all trades, master of none" on its head. No matter your skill level or age, there's no better way to satisfy your creative or intellectual itch than by trying new things. Here you'll find a hodgepodge of classes to satisfy any learner; from the most studious, to the most creative. Calligraphy and card making, primatology, photography, ancient ruins, evolution, books, and film are some of my dearest passions that I hope to share with you!
I have been teaching for 1 year as a community dance, art, and sports instructor, and as an online ESL teacher since September 2020. I graduated from Simon Fraser University with an honours degree in archaeology, a minor in biology, and a certificate in biological anthropology. I've always been happiest when I can pursue academic interests plus a creative outlet, so I like to cater to both avenues.
I strongly believe that exploring different interests should be accessible and fun, without the stressful commitment of visiting a stuffy classroom every week. My hope is to provide a relaxed, upbeat environment where children feel empowered to pursue their interests and grow them into lifelong passions. I love learning and my goal is to help others fall in love with learning, too!
If you have any questions or would like more information about any of my classes, please feel free to reach out. I can't wait to meet your learner! Reviews
