In this one-time course, students will learn how to draw Spongebob Squarepants & Patrick Squishmallows while answering some fun Spongebob trivia questions. Students will learn artist tips for: - Basic shape drawing - Perspective & symmetry - Techniques for using your hand to create smooth, natural, straight and curved lines - Proportions and ideas for designing scenes A printable coloring page is also included for this class upon enrollment! The coloring page is optional and just for fun; students are not required to have it for class. At the beginning of class, students are invited to briefly share art, toys and ideas while students enter the classroom. Students will then be led by step-by-step, directed drawing instructions. Several skills-based artist tips and tricks will be shared throughout class. Although step-by-step instruction is provided, students are also encouraged to work at their own pace and use their own creative ideas to change and add onto their art. FAQ/Policies - ONE STUDENT PER SPOT. If enrolling multiple students, please register each of them. Multiple students appearing under the same spot will result in students being removed from the classroom. - All my Outschool classes have a limited refund policy.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! I'm Marie, a full-time teacher and artist. I love a wide variety of art and discovering new ways to foster learning through creativity. I believe having fun and laughing while learning is important because it encourages self confidence and joy. I always try my best to make my classes fun, engaging, and a welcoming experience for every student.
I have taught classroom Art as a certified educator in US schools for 10+ years from ages pre-school through high school, as well as teaching & tutoring in single and group lessons for Art, ESL, SPED, Social Studies, Math, Science, Technology and gifted students. I have also designed and taught in a number of summer camps. In 2017, I was awarded Teacher of the Year honors at my school. I have taught individual and small-group art lessons both online and in my community since 2018, as well as creating and selling my own art to buyers on every continent (well, except Antarctica!)
I have a BA in Education, and have continued professional certification experience through outside professional training programs, conferences and seminars.
In my spare time I enjoy nature, travel, games, and playing with my dogs. I have transitioned to full-time, online private teaching as I believe it allows teachers to develop curriculum which better meets the needs and interests of today's students by directly engaging with the students more thoroughly. The individual and small group settings allow teachers to cater lessons to students needs and goals intuitively. Private teaching online has also allowed me more time and flexibility to spend with my family. I truly believe online learning is a critical part of the future of education, and I'm excited to share some class time with you!
