Students can expect a completed drawing but everyone works at their own pace while coloring, adding shading and a background. If a student has not fully completed all of the coloring they can complete this at home.Class Experience
Students will learn facts about axolotls and practice basic drawing and coloring skills. We will talk about specific drawing and coloring tips such as "Keep it light until you've got it right" and proportion as we draw our Axolotl Squishmallows different sizes. Students can choose to follow the teacher step by step or they can add their own creative details. Students are encouraged to bring their favorite Squishmallow or axolotl toy to class and they will be given a chance to talk about it if they would like. Students will also be given a chance to share what they know about axolotls and we will have an open discussion throughout class. This class also includes an original Axolotl Squishmallows coloring page designed by the teacher, Marie, available upon enrollment. PLEASE READ BEFORE ENROLLMENT: FAQ/Policies - ONE STUDENT PER SPOT.

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!
