Art Lessons and History of Art for Children and Young people

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!

In this class we will work on developing your skills on either the aerial silks, rope, or hoop, by working on strength, mobility, and learning tricks in a progressive and safe way. I am a professional performer and teacher who did her Teacher Training at the National Centre for Circus Arts in London, and has travelled around the world to perform and learn from different coaches.
This class teaches you the basics of Photoshop and or GIMP, two very similar softwares to edit pictures that will make them look more professional in your own style. Usually you will be able to understand the basics of this software within a few sessions, so that then you can move over to exploring ways of being creatives and finding your own personal style for retouching your images.

Learn and improve to speak Italian with a real Florentine
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.

Francesc Xavier Torres
Private classes in History and Art History
Learning History is not complicated: the density of its syllabus can be facilitated through dynamic and conceptual teaching. Teaching an individualized methodology is essential to understand and accept it, and as such, it is present in my sessions. Whatever you are, reader, do not fall into discouragement or despair, since I will make you understand and love that subject that you now hate. In the last year of the History degree.

history, geography, archaeology, art history.
History is the vector that allows us to better understand our society, the world in which we live. It is essential for general culture. The level of the course will adapt to the level of the student, from primary to university. It is also possible to adapt it in relation to an exam or competition to be taken, or to a person wishing to complete their general knowledge on a particular subject.
