What's included
Class Experience
Let’s learn to draw! In this 4 week long FLEX class, students ages 5-10 years old will learn the basics of drawing and coloring at their own convenience. Each week, students will be carefully instructed step-by-step on how to create a simple drawing by watching the teacher provided video. (Please see the drawing schedule below.) Students will be asked to upload their weekly drawing to the class page, so that the teacher may provide written feedback and comments. The teacher will also be available each week to answer any questions the students may have. The best part is that students have the flexibility and freedom to watch the weekly videos and work on their drawings when it is best for them. What will be provided on the weekly video? Beginning of video: Teacher will greet the students and discuss the drawing topic for the week. Middle of video: Students will follow directions to create a new drawing and color it with crayons, colored pencils, or washable markers. (Students are also encouraged to finish their drawing after the video if additional time is needed.) End of video: Teacher will remind students to upload their finished drawings to the class page and will provide feedback through comments. Weekly Class Schedule: Week 1: Cute Cats Week 2: Outstanding Owls Week 3: Amazing Axolotls Week 4: Unique Unicorns (with the option to make a horse)

Welcome to my classroom! My name is Miss Dara. I am so glad you stopped by! I teach the "I Can Draw Art Club" class, and we always have a fantastic time learning how to draw something new each week. We also learn how to improve our drawing and coloring skills, practice our listening skills, and socialize with our teacher and friends. I hope you can join us soon!
One thing you should know about me is that I have always loved all things art related and being creative! I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Master’s in Elementary Education. I am state certified to teach Elementary Education K-6 and Art Education K-12. I taught in an elementary school for 7 years, until my son and daughter were born. For the past 7 years, I have been teaching online. It has been such an amazing experience!
I am so excited to get the opportunity to work with students on Outschool and help them foster a love of art. My teaching style is very flexible, caring, and creative. My goal is to help students find inspiration in art and build their confidence. I love to make connections with my students and get to know their interests.
Besides teaching art, my other passions are plant-based cooking, going to the shore with my family, playing guitar, and watching movies with our 2 lap cats. I look forward to meeting you soon. Thanks for visiting!
