EPQ TUTORING- ART & ART HISTORY RELATED , open to other subject
course price icon
Von 22.65 € /Std
arrow icon
The extended project is a very large and complex task without proper guidance and mentoring. I was lucky enough to receive a brilliant mentor when completing my own, and was a big factor in how I achieved the A grade.
Through these sessions the student can share with me their ideas for the EPQ, and I can guide them through all aspects of the process from the activity log to the dissertation itself. I welcome all ideas and projects art related as it is my speciality, but I am open to other subjects too!

Über mich
My name is Alexandra, I am currently applying to Oxford University and have completed the 9-1 GCSE's and achieved A*AAAB at A- Level.
I am looking to help other students through the same process. I have been at state school all my life and have always struggled with finding a tutor that fitted my and my needs. I tutor students from a range of abilities, from 'looking to pass' the subject, or students who need the extra push for the top grades.
I specialise in tutoring:
-GCSE/ A level Product & Graphic Design
- GCSE English Literature
- GCSE/A-Level Art
Thank you!

One of the areas I mainly specialise in is both GCSE and A- Level Fine Art, I achieved a 7 at GCSE and an A at A-Level. I tutor students of all abilities whether it is ' just to pass' or to help get the top grades they can.
During my sessions I go through coursework with the student, and identify areas that they could improve or develop upon. I use different video calling platforms to do this, and email to send me their work prior to the lesson. Often students can find it difficult to become inspired to form a whole project, from often tricky limiting titles. Hopefully I can listen to their ideas and help guide their final product and proof any written work that may come with it such as the 'Evaluation'.

I specialise in tutoring for the 9-1 GSCE Graphic Design/ Product Design course, as well as A- Level Product Design. I achieved a 9 at GCSE Graphic Products and an A* in A-level Product design, I feel this gives me a unique insight into the course having completed it myself!!
Being a very visual subject, I can help improve technical drawing skills as well as the actual theory exam work with it, as I know this is often a challenge. Coursework is another area I will work with the student to improve, I use email and google docs to share work, that I can then identify areas to be developed or improved, and briefly work through how this can be achieved over the phone or via skype etc.
I take students from a range of levels and can work with them to help their confidence and get them the grade they deserve.

Who this is for?

This course is for motivated students aiming for TU / FH / Akademie - Bachelor Degree in Vienna.
It follows a mentorship model, providing close guidance and structured support to help students prepare for both Matura and architecture admission exams with greater clarity, efficiency, and (hopefully) reduced risk of burnout.

Format & rhythm

• Online sessions are offered only when in-person attendance is not possible.
• Start: ideally 9–12 months before the admission date.
• First session: skills assessment drawing test + short questionnaire (preferences, favorite architects, goals). Students who present previous work skip the drawing test.
• Language: English (with translations/explanations as needed).
• Recommended age: 16+

1. Working plan — core sections

• Artistic / Representation: traditional drawing (still life, line quality, composition), shape and volume studies, color and material basics, light and values, architectural views, physical modeling and sculpture, photography for portfolio use.
• Technical / Graphic: freehand and constructed perspective, light and shadow, entourage elements, axonometric representation, plans, sections, elevations, layouting (typography, scale, measurements).
• Theory & Context: contemporary architecture history, design thinking, styles and movements, architectural language and terminology, materials and finishes, case studies.
• Digital & Professional Tools: 2D and 3D tools introduction, presentation techniques, workflow examples from real architectural projects.
• Studio Practice & Cognitive Skills: work ethics, time management, critique culture, creative flow, vision pitch and rhetoric, thinking from small to large scale

2. Portfolio building / Motivational letter + Ranking test (TU Wien)

• Portfolio strategy aligned with the student’s vision and academic criteria; project-based work with feedback; curated final portfolio pages; captions and visual storytelling;
• TU Wien - specific support including sketches for the motivation letter and ranking test preparation.

3. Interview & Jury impression

• How to present choices: storytelling (problem → idea → resolution → learning).
• Jury cares about: clarity of thinking, process visibility, curiosity, adaptability, visual literacy, attitude.
• Prepare answers for likely questions: motivations, favorite works, why architecture, what you learned from a project, how you solve problems.

4. Extras (optional)

• Urban sketching, museum visits, architecture and design events, photography walks, model making
