Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a teacher in the United Kingdom with an NVQ3 in CCLD (Children's Care, Learning and Development) and a London Art School Diploma holder. I've worked with preschools, nurseries, and special needs children for the past 13 years, and it's been more than 7 years since I launched my own art club, "Fun at Art Club," which caters to children from nursery to advanced learners and is offered as after-school art classes in several local schools.
My goal is to instil a love of creativity as well as the ability to make mistakes and not let them define us. Don't give up; instead, strive to improve things. If you make a mistake, don't give up; I'll assist you with my knowledge and step-by-step guidance. I will assist them in forming creative ideas and bringing their vision to life, as well as those who appreciate making their work look professional.
I understand that the classes scheduled might not be convenient for you, but if you are serious about learning, please reserve a time slot on my calendar.
