Art lessons for children and adults: drawing/painting/sculpture. Preparing portfolio for GCSE, A-levels and university

Advert description
I have 20 years of experience teaching painting, drawing, sculpture and crafts making to individuals and groups.
My teaching experiences are:
- group art lessons for children from 4-12 years old
- Individual art lessons to any age, including GCSE, A-level and University.

I received a university training in Theatre Stage and Costume Design (M.A. graduated in 2004).
For the last 20 years I have worked in different theatre productions as Stage and Costume Designer as well as Puppet Maker.
For the last six years I have worked as a sculptor. My works have been displayed in exhibitions of Royal Society of British Artists, The Society Women Artists, Cork Street Open Exhibition and others.

I have an experience in supporting pupils in GCSCE and A-level art projects, aiding with composing sketchbook, and coming up with ideas for exam final pieces.

My previous pupils have achieved no lower than A* or A in art alevel and GCSE. In addition, I have experience in preparing portfolios for application to art scholarships, as well as preparing the students for scholarship interview questions.

Furthermore, I help compose portfolio for university and art school applications, with my students passing interviews and gaining offers for art/design based subjects, at universities such as Sheffield, Edinburgh, Oxford Brookes and the Bartlett School of Architecture (UCL).

Based on your desire, I can tutor you in a range of media, including
- painting: watercolour, ink, acrylic, oil
- drawing
- mixed media and collage
- puppet making: paper-mache, foam puppets,
- ceramics/ sculpture
- model making: stage model making, model making to scale, architectural model making

I am an adult learner, and Irina has been teaching me art for over seven years. I started as a complete beginner and have since learned drawing and painting using various techniques. I truly appreciate Irina's teaching style: she always respects my feelings and never gives harsh critique. She politely points out areas to improve but never pressures me to change what I love. She encourages trying new techniques or learning rules like perspective and proportion, only when I feel ready. Irina’s support has greatly improved my skills while keeping my love for painting and inspiring me even more. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to grow as an artist in a respectful and encouraging environment. My latest paintings: https://leonid-gerzon.tilda.ws
