My name is Hugo, I am a passionate artist and educator based in the vibrant city
of London. With a background in sculpture, painting, and drawing, I've had
the privilege of delving into the world of art both as a creator and as a
mentor. As an experienced tutor, I'm excited to share my knowledge and
artistic journey with you. We will work on your skills from the ground up or pick up where you left before. Every lesson is personalized to you and I can teach you any medium and material you want to learn. From oil and acrylic painting to even sculpture if you wish.

About Me
Approach to Tutoring:
My tutoring philosophy is rooted in fostering creativity and critical thinking. I encourage my students to explore their unique artistic voices while providing guidance and technical
expertise. I believe that art is not just about creating beautiful images but also about
conveying emotions, stories, and messages through visual expression.
Why I Love Tutoring:
Tutoring is my passion because I get to witness the transformative power of art in my
students' lives. I find immense joy in guiding individuals on their artistic journeys, helping
them unlock their full potential, and witnessing their growth and confidence flourish.
What Sets Me Apart:
What makes me unique as a tutor is my extensive background in both the practical and
technical aspects of art. My experience as an educator and a maker gives me a holistic
perspective on the art world. I bring this interdisciplinary knowledge to my teaching,
providing a well-rounded and enriching learning experience. I am a very good listener and
have helped many students deal confidence issues and personal struggles through art
making.
Success Stories:
I take pride in my students' achievements. Several of my past younger students were able to have excellent grades on their Art and Design A-levels, while the older students found the courage to start and progress their artistic endeavors, and their positive feedback is a
testament to my dedication as a tutor. If required I can provide their contact for reference.
