Art for Everybody: A4E - Nurture your curiosity

A partir de 36.48 $ /h

Hello, hi :)
I'm Mia, your future private art tutor if you're interested!

I'm a visual artist working across different mediums, from more classical forms like drawing and painting to multimedia practices such as video and performance.

I graduated from a high school of art and design in France, continued my studies at the School of Fine Arts in Geneva HEAD, and I'm currently finishing a specialization in choreography at the Academy of Theatre and Dance in Amsterdam.

I'm offering a series of personalized art classes that can focus on various mediums, whether you're looking to explore new artistic tools, prepare for entrance exams to art schools, or simply nurture your curiosity. All ages and experience levels are welcome.

Here are three class options to start with:

Sketching and Drawing
Learn the basics of observational drawing and graphic composition. We can focus on a specific subject or go on walks to observe and draw what we see in our surroundings.

Video
An introduction to video basics and editing software. We’ll explore how to use cameras in a raw, intuitive way and understand the logic behind lighting and other technical tools.

Art School Preparation
Guidance in building a portfolio, formatting and laying out documents, and exploring different printing techniques. Ideal for those preparing to apply to art schools or looking to expand their artistic practice.

Feel free to reach out with questions or specific interests. I'm happy to adapt the classes to your needs.

Información adicional

The tools and materials used will depend on the needs and curiosity of each student. The proposition is to work in whichever medium interests them, as a way to respond to the task. It is recommended to have a notebook with blank (unlined) pages, along with basic materials such as pencils and black ink pens.

Acerca de mí

I’m a 27-year-old visual artist with a wide range of interests. My educational journey has introduced me to various artistic approaches, and I’m eager to share these perspectives with anyone who’s interested. I’m a curious, nerdy, and passionate person, always looking to connect different ways of making art while also dedicating time to developing knowledge.

My "toolbox" is a blend of practical skills and theoretical understanding. I love drawing people on the subway, spending afternoons sketching in the park, or diving into raw, experimental processes. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work on art films, in theaters, with various artists, and to give workshops in Amsterdam, Geneva, and Berlin.

Experiencia / Calificaciones

Throughout my years of studying and practicing visual art, I have explored various mediums and worked alongside numerous artists. This journey has led me through a wide range of experiences in the art world, from assistant roles to project leader positions. I’ve had the opportunity to give workshops, curate exhibitions, and engage in collaborative creative processes.

My practice spans a kaleidoscope of mediums, with a particular focus on drawing, video work, and performance. I have also gained experience as a teacher through both workshops and private tutoring, where I’ve shared my knowledge and passion for the creative process.

My approach is further supported by a strong theoretical foundation that enriches my thinking and artistic development. I am eager to connect with makers, creative individuals, and curious minds, to foster meaningful dialogue and explore the craft of image-making.

Hello! I am Leonora and I studied painting and music in Amsterdam.

I love to transmite my passion for arts, especially painting, drawing and art and crafts to children

Having art lessons brings many advantages. Children increase their self confidence, improve their motor skills, learn to concentrate, express their emotions and feelings throught the use of different colors and materials!

I am a native Spanish speaker from Canary Islands, Spain. I am really passionate about literature and I've always been really good at linguistics. I studied dramatic arts so I am a really sociable, empathic person, that likes to learn and teach by having fun!
I learnt that the best way to learn a lenguage is by simply listening a talking! So no grammar sheets, no filling papers and completing sentences. This is unusefull. Do you want to learn spanish? Then... let's talk!
I can organize every class for topics we can talks about, but I am looking forward to know what is the best way for fou to learn, so you can always let me know what is more helpful for you.
I have experience as an extracurricular teacher with children and teenagers. Back in Canary Islands I used to teach literature, history and Spanish language.
I am also flexible, if there is something you are specificly curious about, we can do it (grammar, spanish history, spanish exams, learn about different accents, etc)

Thank you for trusting me!

Always wanted to learn Spanish, but the regular lessons go too fast and/or it doesn't stick, then follow these tailor-made lessons.

Why class for 40+, because we have learned from our own experience how difficult it is to learn another language later in life and that most books/courses are based for younger students.

All lessons are adapted to your individual needs and speed.

You do not need to purchase any books, all materials will be delivered by email. This is because we work with several books and in this way we can offer a lot of learning material and thus make the learning material varied (and also rehearse more often if necessary.)

There is no minimum or maximum number of lessons, you are the one who determines the frequency. Of course you can also do these lessons with your partner.

Lessons are given online via Skype and last 1.5 hours at a time.
Lessons can be given during the day or in the evening.

Hello, I am Marcela a multidisciplinary artist with BA in Visual Arts, Faculty of Fine Arts - University of Queretaro, Mexico. I have also done an exchange of 6 months to learn about sophisticated art methods at the Faculty of Fine Arts - University of Granada, Spain. Additionally, to deepen my skills, I took two courses on drawing and painting at Crea, Amsterdam.
In this course I will teach the basis of drawing and painting. Regarding drawing, I will teach the principles of sketching, moving forward to the specifics of light and shadow. During the drawing classes, you will also learn about different techniques, such as pastels, charcoal, and graphite. With respect to painting, you will learn about theory of colour, how to design a colour palette, and how to apply it. Next, you will learn about the specificities of materials, such as acrylics, watercolour and oils. You will then be able to experiment with these materials, and at the end create your own artwork based on your preferences.

I am a native Swedish, Spanish and English speaker and provide tutoring in all those languages.

During the tutoring sessions the student and I will look for ways of learning that works best for them, so they can be as engaged and retain as much new knowledge as possible. This comes from listening to the student and seeing their strengths and areas where more support is needed.
The key in my teaching is to make it fun. I am engaged and motivated with my students, and want to help them see the fun and value in what they are doing.

Lessons are customised to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English, Swedish or Spanish for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can also be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more.

For children who are fluent in one of these languages, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Specific subjects that interest the student can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge within this topic.

Depending on the students age, lesson duration can be adjusted. I also do lessons for siblings. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for my students.

Education:
I have ample experience working with kids as I worked at a YMCA summer camp in Sweden for many summers, supervising a group of 10-12 kids around the clock for 4 weeks, joining/monitoring them on their group activities/classes, as well as everything else logistically around them. I also have a genuine interest in child development and pedagogy as a whole.

I have a bachelors degree in Social Psychology and one in Media and Communications from Uppsala University in Sweden.
