Art Lessons and History of Art for Children and Young people

From 41.57 € /h

Art classes

These classes focus on developing the skills to produce artworks utilising diverse media. The techniques I teach are drawing, painting, sculpture, and engraving, as well as mixed media, where students experiment a combination of techniques and materials, such as photomontage, xilocollage, building of sculptures with non-conventional objects, etc.

Art appreciation & Art History

I use a combination of techniques for Art Appreciation and Art History classes. Some are based on the Visual Thinking Strategies method and guided enquiry, as well as on my background in drama to relate to artworks with all the senses and the emotions. Similarly, my guided observation works on helping students identify and understand compositional principles.
The aim of these classes is to get learners thinking about what they see and what it could mean. This can be done with any sort of image.
This type of approach is particularly important nowadays that human culture has become eminently visual. And students extract enormous joy by sharing and discussing their ideas.

About Me

I am a creative educator and artist working in museums and charities, as well as a performer and actress teaching and working in Cambridge and London, UK.

My work in museums has been varied, and it ranges from exhibition producer and co-curator, tour guide, facilitator, to project manager and programmer. If you don’t find me doing at least one of those things, you’ll for sure find me facilitating a workshop or performing in a show.

I enjoy designing and delivering enthralling and original learning experiences in various formats and suited to different learning styles. I also take pleasure in leading cultural projects to success and devising unique engagement programmes.
I also teach and perform aerial circus as well as physical theatre. I particularly like taking part in and developing ground-breaking performances on topics as diverse and relevant as climate change and gender identity. Finally, I also do photography and digital editing.

As you can see, I am as eager about managing and producing behind the scenes, as I am about being centre stage. I am incredibly passionate about the arts, and I love sharing my enthusiasm, knowledge and creativity with everyone. I cannot wait to share this with you!

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.

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 12 years of practice teaching people how to do it. We work together step by step to understand the technique, the way to prepare wooden panel to paint an icon and the techniques of making a good project to make the icon fit to the board. We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the halos. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

Whether your children need support to pass their History subjects (from Primary to High School), prepare for the EvAU (Educational Assessment), or pass a subject you're struggling with at university, or for their Final Project (FYP) or Master's Thesis (TFM) if you're pursuing a Master's degree, or simply want to expand your knowledge of History and general culture, count on me! I have a degree in History and am currently working on my doctoral thesis in Modern History.

If you’ve ever searched for this class and even looked at the description of this lesson, then you’ve probably come across a crochet pattern filled with many symbols that seem complicated, yet they produce an absolutely stunning piece. And maybe you’ve thought that these patterns are only used by professionals who have spent years mastering this craft...

But what if I told you a secret? 👀
You don’t need to be a crochet expert to learn how to read a pattern, it’s quite the opposite! Once you learn to read a pattern, it actually opens the door for you to become more professional and develop your skills!

In fact, if you already know the basic stitches, you’re fully ready to start this lesson.
(And if you don’t yet know the basic crochet stitches, I recommend looking for my lesson titled “Learn Crochet from Scratch!”)

By the end of this lesson, you will:
✅ Learn the basic symbols for each stitch.
✅ Learn how to read a pattern row by row.
✅ Master how to follow the reading direction correctly.
✅ Understand the difference between a written and a charted pattern.
✅ Create a beautiful piece yourself using a ready-made pattern!

So, are you ready?

Spanish lessons on conversation and culture: You don't get to know a country by reading its laws, but through experience. This is a conversation-based course that will give you the knowledge you need for learning spanish through a ludic experience, taking confident steps towards the goal of mastery. Speak on culture give you the tool to encourage with patience the learning on grammar and vocabular the language needs.

Get ready for creativity, giggles, and a whole lot of colorful mess! I’m starting a super fun arts & crafts class just for kids where imagination runs wild and every project feels like an adventure. We’ll paint, glue, cut, sprinkle glitter, and turn everyday ideas into awesome creations kids will be excited to show off.

This class is all about exploring, trying new things, building confidence, and having FUN while we create. No pressure to be “perfect,” just a welcoming space where little artists can express themselves, make friends, and leave with big smiles (and maybe a little paint on their sleeves 🤭).
