This class is best for students who wish to study art or do creative work in an English speaking environment. We will analyse art by others and art you in an all-English art critique.

من أنا؟
I am a teaching artist who also works with technology. I have taught art, art history, making and engineering, 3D printing, English, and also creative writing. I love creative work. I love art and I love the sciences. More than anything else, I love finding connections between different disciplines, people, and ideas. AP and IB portfolios are my specialty.

I have worked in some of the toughest schools and some of the most privileged schools. Crossing these boundaries in the US and Asia, I find people need the same everywhere, a partner and coach to explore ideas and to build a plan and portfolio for moving forwards. Let's face it, everything is more fun with enthusiasm, focus, and some laughter to make the difficult work more fun.
المستوى التعليمي
BA, Denison University. Granville, Ohio. English-Writing degree
I did half of an MFA Poetry at George Mason University but left to work at The Smithsonian in their museum education programs.
Master's Degree at Concordia University-Portland Campus in Education Curriculum & Instruction with a focus on e-learning.
الخبرة / المؤهلات
I began teaching Art in 1999, grades 5-8 in Philadelphia. I taught in Chicago from 2002-2012 mostly teaching art and art history to grades 6-12. I then took my technology degree and ran maker spaces in schools teaching 3D printing, design, digital fabrication, and innovation.

Since moving to Hong Kong in 2019, I have been teaching a little of everything, mostly as a tutor. My specialty is making learning fun and building portfolios and creative projects using multiple disciplines. Whether you want to build an art portfolio to get into a US or UK art school, build an inventor's portfolio for boarding school, or start your own company before you leave high school or gymnasium, I have the experience and energy to help you create your own success! Do what you love and love what you do!

Building a portfolio is a multidisciplinary journey. They require personal vision that must be developed and refined and each work must evolve to create an understandable and engaging whole. If you are looking to create a powerful portfolio, develop a thematic art show, or start a social entrepreneurial company based on technology, I can be your guide. Achieve your potential, become what you have within you to become!

Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

Alors que le système scolaire reconnaît qu’il est nécessaire de savoir lire, écrire et compter pour être un citoyen libre et responsable, il a depuis longtemps laissé de côté, sauf à la marge, les compétences nécessaires pour comprendre les images. L’histoire de l’art est par excellence la discipline dont cela est la tâche.
Découvrir l'histoire par le biais de l'histoire des Arts est donc important et permet de découvrir une autre facette de l'histoire de l'homme... En effet, le cours vous permet de découvrir l'evolution du mode vie de nos ancêtres et de la pensée pour mieux comprendre ce que nous vivons aujourd'hui..que ce soit a travers la peinture, la sculpture, l'architecture ou même le mode de vie ...
