My Lessons
My online lessons are structured, engaging, and tailored to your goals—whether that’s improving grades, building a portfolio, or learning for enjoyment. I combine professional teaching methods with a supportive, relaxed approach to help you progress quickly and confidently.

Lessons include live demonstrations, guided practice, and detailed feedback to ensure continuous improvement. I also provide support with coursework, sketchbooks, and exam preparation, helping you meet assessment objectives and stand out.

In addition, I focus on building long-term artistic confidence, helping you understand not just how to draw, but why techniques work. I can adapt lessons to specific exam boards, themes, or project briefs, ensuring your work aligns with marking criteria. For students aiming for top grades or creative careers, I offer targeted portfolio coaching and advanced skill development. My goal is to make every lesson productive, inspiring, and personalised—so you see real progress from the very start.

I also provide flexible scheduling, ongoing progress tracking, and personalised lesson plans to ensure consistent improvement and measurable results over time.
