30 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
(Please note: this class says it is 30 minutes, but the class could take up to 45 minutes. It is my goal to make sure your child is successful and proud of their work and never feels rushed.) If you love this class, I would love to have you join my regular on-going class and learn to draw a new Pokémon each week with me! I offer many different kinds of drawing classes and hope to see you in it. In this entertaining art class, your child will join me, a real-life drama and art teacher, and learn how to draw everyone's favorite Pokemon, Pikachu. I focus on making learn fun and easy. It is also important to me to be positive and encouraging in hopes tobuild a child's self-confidence level. The class will go like this: 2 minutes - INTRODUCTION/MEET AND GREET. During this time, students are encouraged to share something fun that has happened to them recently this week with the rest of the class. It is important for me to learn a little about each of my students. 25 minutes - DRAWING/COLORING TIME During this time, we will learn how to draw different shapes that will create our character. Afterwards, students are guided through the coloring process to finish their drawing. 3 minutes - SHARE TIME Students are encouraged to share their drawing with the rest of the class and then show their drawing to their family after our class ends. CLASS ENDS - "GOODBYES" NOTE TO PARENTS: The learning experience can be extended by asking your child to show you their work and by finding a place to hang their drawing so they can see it each day. A refrigerator is usually a great place to hang a child's artwork. ___________________________ THINGS NEEDED FOR THE CLASS: - blank, white paper (please have 3 or 4 pieces in case the child wants to start over again) - pencil (make sure this is sharpened) - pencil sharpener - markers or crayons (black, red, yellow, orange, and brown) - desk/table (please have plenty of room for your child to draw with their paper and art supplies)

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Art and Design from The University of Tampa
Hey there! I’m Billy, your child’s creative adventure buddy! Every week, I work to create a fun and supportive space where your child can look forward to learning and growing. I make sure each class is an exciting, safe environment where they can express themselves, make new friends, and build confidence through art.
For over 12 years, I’ve traveled the globe, soaking up vibrant cultures and creative experiences. I’m currently living in Egypt, where I’ve been for 7 years, teaching and inspiring young minds from all over the world.
With 30+ years of experience as an actor, singer, director, and choreographer, I’ve had the chance to teach the kids of movie stars! But my heart belongs to helping kids express themselves through drawing.
I’ve had the privilege of studying animation and storytelling with some of the best in the business—Disney, Nickelodeon, and DreamWorks. Through internships and collaborations, I’ve learned the magic of creating characters, telling stories, and designing visually compelling art, and I bring those lessons into my classes, helping students unlock their own creativity.
I’ve proudly taught on Outschool for over 4 years, and I’m honored to be recognized as a top teaching contributor. My classes blend artistic skills with storytelling, turning each lesson into an adventure. My students have gone on to shine on Broadway, star in TV shows, and become amazing artists themselves!
I hold a Bachelor’s in Performing Arts/Dance and a Master’s in Education. My teaching philosophy? Spark imagination, make learning fun, and encourage kids to grow in confidence and creativity.
I’m so proud of my students and can’t wait to bring that same energy to your child’s creative journey! Let’s explore the world of art together as part of the OUTSCHOOL family!
