プライベートデッサンクラス - アートスタイルとデッサンテクニックの探求

Hello! My name is Karina, I am a professional educator, artist and linguist. At this point, I have over 12 years of experience teaching students of all ages, both in-person and on-line.
I'm also proud to be one of the top art teachers on Outschool with over 8500 learners taking my classes since July 2020.

I was born in Ukraine in a family of teachers and I always wanted to become a teacher myself, gratefully my dream came true! I started as a private language tutor back in 2011, and since then I have been traveling around the world and teaching language classes. I'm a TESOL certified instructor with a BA degree in Linguistics. For five years I worked as a full-time English and Russian language instructor for language schools in China and Japan and it was an amazing journey of discovering new languages, meeting amazing people and learning how to approach students with different sets of skills and backgrounds. 

After living and working in Asia for over five years I came to Canada, where I continue to teach private and group classes, both in-person and on-line. 

Other than studying linguistics, I received multiple certifications from School of Fine Arts in Moscow and have been working as a professional artist since 2015. My artwork has been exhibited and sold all around the globe, my paintings won multiple awards. In the past few years, I managed to successfully combine my passion for visual arts with my love for working with children to create unique, fun and educational art courses. I specialize in Realistic Drawing, Creative Drawing, Anime Drawing and Watercolour painting.

The most important thing for me as a teacher is to make my students feel supported and valued.  Each child has an awesome potential and discovering it together with my students is the greatest gift for me as a teacher.

I’m looking forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with my students.

Thank you! 
See you in the classroom!
