**** If you're interested in this private class, please submit a schedule request to me. Thank you! **** This course is designed for private one-on-one instruction between the teacher and student to focus on modern calligraphy techniques and tools. This is for intensive courses, set for shorter time limits to condense the material (through repeat sessions or a 1-time class). We will focus on beginner techniques, how to use specific brush-tip calligraphy markers and work on any projects as time permits. This intensive will primarily focus on the beginning calligraphy strokes and how to hold your markers. We will practice applying various amounts of pressure when using calligraphy markers to get appropriate down stroke width, and finer upstroke widths. We can also work on various letters to help the student work out their preferred style and variations. Faux calligraphy (which is easier and provides more freedom), is also a technique we can work on together in later sessions if desired by the student. This class is suited for brush-tip markers and other calligraphy markers. Traditional calligraphy with dip pens would be best suited for alternative instruction.

Hello Parents!
Thank you for stopping by my profile. If there is a class you're interested in but you don't see your preferred time, please message me or send me a schedule request. I am excited to work with your student(s) on Outschool!
In my classroom, I aim to create an encouraging, fun, and challenging environment so your student can grow in their artistic and academic skills. As a former Art Teacher, most of my classes are art-focused (calligraphy, drawing, hand-lettering, design, and script writing). These are subjects I love and have great experience in. We will have a blast creating and having fun while doing so!
I have a Bachelors Degree of Science, where I majored in Business with an emphasis in Marketing, Design, and Communications. I also have my Advanced TEFL Teaching Certification. I have most recently been teaching ESL to Chinese students virtually for the past 3 years, and have taught over 3,600 classes thus far. It's been so fun learning how to engage and connect with students across the world while working in a virtual classroom. Before teaching English, I taught Art for 2 years at a Classical School. I had the joy of teaching all K-8th grade students, where I also specialized in teaching Spelling and Cursive. Prior to teaching K-8th graders, I worked with college students for 8 1/2 years as a University Adviser. It was my job to prepare college students for their college studies and career pursuits.
As an addition to my career in education, I used my love for art, design, and hand-lettering to start an online clothing and gift shop in 2015. In our prime, the shop had even been featured on BuzzFeed and Huffington Post for our unique and fun t-shirts. It's been a blast watching simple hand-drawn lettering ideas turn into creative designs that sold on shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, and prints from my art studio. Definitely an exciting experience I am so grateful for!
When I am outside the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family, art, exercising, and reading. I hope to see your student in my classroom soon!
Thanks for stopping by!
