Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
California Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
My name is Tami Oakes, and I'm thrilled to be your child's guide on their artistic journey! With over 10 years of teaching (art) experience, I bring the fun of art directly into your home through interactive, small-group online classes designed for kids and teens.

Here’s why my classes stand out:

Inclusivity and Support
I believe in creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every student feels valued and encouraged to express their creativity. All students, regardless of their skill level, should feel comfortable exploring their artistic abilities.

Patience and Kindness
My teaching approach is rooted in patience and kindness. I prioritize building strong relationships with my students, which fosters trust and open communication. This allows students to feel safe in taking creative risks.

Clear Instruction
I strive to provide clear and concise instructions that cater to diverse learning styles. This ensures that all students can engage with the material effectively and understand the concepts being taught.

Engagement and Personalization
I focus on engaging students of varying ages and skill levels by adapting lessons to meet individual needs. By personalizing my approach, I help students stay motivated and connected to their learning.

Exploration and Experimentation
I encourage students to explore a variety of mediums and techniques, promoting experimentation in their artistic practice. This not only enhances their skills but also allows them to discover their unique artistic voice.

Building Confidence
My philosophy emphasizes nurturing self-expression and building confidence in artistic abilities. I celebrate students' achievements, big or small, to instill a sense of pride in their work.

Community and Collaboration
I foster a sense of community within the classroom, encouraging collaboration and interaction among students. This cultivates a supportive artistic environment where students can learn from one another. 

Overall, my teaching philosophy is centered around empowering students to become confident, creative individuals who are proud of their artistic journeys.

Please reach out to me with any questions, I hope to meet your child soon!
