Did you know that the majority of the visuals that you see on the internet, on billboards or in magazines comes from the same software whose name is certainly not unknown to you, Adobe Photoshop?

Like many, Photoshop can be the perfect tool for your creative projects. You need to use it, but you do not know how to do it. You are convinced that it is too complex for you, that you are not made for it, and finally, after multiple attempts, you give up in the hope that someone more competent realizes your wishes. .. And if this time was over?

Former student at ECAL and former student of Atelier de Sèvres in Paris, I offer drawing and illustrator courses.
Drawing is a passion that I like to share with others. This course is for everyone; whether you are an enthusiast or a professional who wishes to acquire a better technique.
You will learn there the basic techniques to succeed precisely the proportions, to better control the color, to balance your compositions.
Bring the material you like!

I practice and teach several programs of the Adobe Suite:

- Photoshop, for editing and photo editing
- After Effect, for animations and visual effects
- Premiere Pro, for video editing
- Illustrator, for illustration and vector drawing
- InDesign, for the layout
- Adobe XD, for the creation of interactive prototype models of applications and website

These courses are intended for beginners wanting to discover and learn the software for professional reasons or just as a hobby. I teach with a smile and prefer to put the students directly to practice and minimize the theory, in order to make classes more interesting and more effective!

I can also learn a tool or a specific function of a software, or help create different, projects under request :)

Graduated in graphic design for almost 2 years, I offer introductory courses in graphic design and on the necessary tools of the Adobe Suite. Whether for personal projects or for your training, I will listen to your needs and adapt to your pace. I give distance lessons (webcam) or lessons at my own home.

At the beginning of each session, we will establish together objectives and the stages through which we will go to reach the set goal, whether it is entering an art school or learning the technique.

For these courses and according to the objectives, we will use the following Adobe software:

- Adobe InDesign
- Adobe Photoshop
- Adobe Illustrator

I am a very pedagogue and often took care of apprentices and trainees when I worked in a company. On request I can also learn the basics of creative drawing and observation, and the basics of using a camera.

I have currently resumed my studies at ECAL but I will take great pleasure in teaching you everything I know about graphics and the Adobe suite!

Experienced private teacher, holder of a Master of Advanced Studies (MAS), TOEFL iBT® Exam Advanced, I offer English and computer courses. My lessons cover a diverse range of topics, from consolidating the basics of grammar and spelling to preparing for written and oral exams. My course material on Google Docs offers clear explanations, useful links and practical exercises for rapid progress. For writing assistance, I insist on the acquisition of effective tools for structuring ideas and enriching vocabulary. Literary text analyzes are optimized for efficient use of time. End-of-study work is corrected with detailed comments to ensure the success of each student. Courses for adults are adapted to their specific objectives, with materials prepared in advance and personalized monitoring for better memorization and assimilation.

I trained in industrial design at ECAL where I used the entire Adobe suite on a daily basis, Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Bridge and Premiere Pro. These are intuitive applications, but require a little help at the beginning. Do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to enter an art school or start a job that requires knowledge of the Adobe suite.

Want to unwind, express yourself, or create a heartfelt gift for a friend?
I’m here to help!

In this relaxed and flexible course, I’ll guide you through using Procreate (or any iPad drawing app you like) and share my love for Chinese art / Japanese anime / Mucha-inspired styles. If you trust me, I'm learning pixel art these days and more than glad to share my knowledge with you. In a word, whether you're a beginner or just exploring in art field, we’ll go at your pace and focus on what brings you joy.

P.S. I also take personal commissions — so if you’d like me to draw something just for you, feel free to ask 💖

As a graduate of ECAL and holder of a Federal Certificate of Proficiency (CFC) in graphic design, I offer personalized courses in Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, combining both technical and creative approaches.

These courses are designed for beginners as well as those looking to develop their visual style, whether for a personal project, academic studies, or professional goals.

Beyond learning the tools, the goal is to help you:

– Understand the basics of design (composition, color, typography)
– Develop your visual sense
– Create concrete, personal projects

Each class is tailored to your pace and interests, in a supportive and motivating atmosphere ✨

You’ll have the opportunity to work on your own projects (portfolio, resume, social media, illustration, etc.).
Feel free to bring your ideas or projects with you!

I advocate a creative and relaxed approach. No silly questions: mistakes are the foundation of your learning. Without them, you won't be able to progress.

I offer training on all of the following software:
• Photoshop: image correction, retouching, editing and processing
• Illustrator: proficiency in the software and typography
• InDesign: layout design, microtypography, graphic coordination and integration between different software programs; history of the publishing and printing industry
• Premiere Pro: video editing, tips and pitfalls to avoid, how to create a harmonious and effective edit, and mastering the software.

I adapt easily to schedules and needs. Naturally organized and independent, I am proficient in the digital tools used in education and I create my own teaching materials while guaranteeing high-quality work.

Trained as a media technician, I complemented my background with studies in visual communication with a specialization in photography.

For more than five years, I have been designing and developing visual content for print as well as digital media.

My professional experiences, both in Switzerland and abroad, have led me to work for cultural institutions, companies, and individuals alike.

As a graphic designer and photographer, I regularly manage campaigns from start to finish, propose new strategies, and maintain the websites and social media accounts of my clients. I develop relevant visual solutions while remaining attentive to objectives and expectations.

Since January 2025, I have been working as a substitute teacher at CPNV, where I teach various multimedia courses. This experience has allowed me to develop strong adaptability skills and an ability to build trust with my students.
