Class Experience

If you are dying to draw the human body, but you are not sure where to begin then you have come to the right place! This class is for aspiring artists! In this class, we will focus on the human body from head to toe. We will explore different kinds of tools to draw including pens, pencils, paper, blending tools, etc. We will learn how to use different drawing tools for instance exploring different line weights and/or strokes. We will also explore various techniques including perspective, shadows, negative and positive space, and foreshortening. Remember, each class will focus on a different subject.

Here is a tentative schedule:
January 29th: Eyes Drawing
February 5th: Nose drawing
February 19th: The head and Proportions
January 26th:  full figure drawing

March 5th: Lips drawing
March 12th: Foreshortening- aerial view

Hello there! I am passionate about teaching arts and craft to students between the ages of 6 - 11. 
I have worked with youth for 9 years and my experience includes teaching English as a Second Language online and working in after-school programs. I have taught on a number of online tutoring platforms, such as Vipkid and Qkids. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing students progress from saying short phrases to full sentences and finally, to having full-blown conversations.
Additionally, I have also taught at a YMCA after school program where I planned various activities including arts and crafts. Activities included paper crafts, step-by-step fantasy drawings, animal-life drawings, paper-crafts puppets and other engaging projects! I believe that should be engaged, excited and follow their curiosities. My approach is very hands-on and interactive! 

 I completed a Bachelor of fine arts in visual arts at Sir Wilfred Grenfell College where I explored different mediums such as drawing, sculpture and performance art. During this period, drawing and sculpture was a major focus. I delved into different drawing techniques specifically related to the human body. I also explored sculpture using materials such as wood, ceramics and metal. I would love to teach these skills to students from all over the world! I believe in providing a creative environment where they can flourish. 
In addition, I completed a Bachelors' degree in English Literature with a minor in Anthropology. I also received some credits for French.  This degree has afforded me a number of skills including critical thinking, essay writing and creative writing. These skills will help me to communicate with students at all levels.

In my spare time, l am a bookworm, who loves listening to audio-books or reading books. This has been a life long hobby that began 25 years ago. Moreover, I love cooking, learning new languages and about other cultures as well! I am also very adventurous, I have done skiing on some of the great Canadian slopes on the east side!
