Tammie
English Tutor, Test Prep, Conversation Teacher, Tesol, Writing and Speaking Teacher, Art
I am a creative individual who believes people learn better through connecting to real life experiences. My sessions are student led and not teacher based. We will learn through storytelling and creative self-expression which will encompass qualities such as leadership, confidence and critical thinking - the skills very much needed for the fast globalized environment we live in today. Let's learn English creatively through talking/writing about what's popular, culture, passions, countries and people. Reading, writing, speaking/conversation, exam prep, public speaking

Anita
Interdisciplinary Arts & Thinking - The Visionary Freedom Lab
My name is Anita, and I am an interdisciplinary neurodivergent artist. I combine traditional and unconventional teaching methods with an innovative approach, adapted to the fast-paced era we live in, where attention spans can be short. My teaching integrates principles of psychology to better understand each student’s unique needs and aspirations. My goal is to nurture visionary children who have strong foundational values and a humble sense of self. I believe that true artistic mastery comes from human excellence. Also, in this way, students develop true self-confidence by evaluating their success based on personal progress rather than comparing themselves to others. This course is especially recommended for neurodivergent children with multiple interests who struggle to choose, focus on, and manage various subjects. It helps develop both technique and discipline, enabling them to navigate multiple creative fields—essentially putting their eggs in several baskets while honing the skills necessary for diverse career opportunities in an uncertain job market. The program encourages a generalist mindset, promoting versatility without compromising creative integrity. Students will learn to refine their Zoom In/Zoom Out perspective, gaining the ability to see both the bigger picture and the finer details of any subject. The program's structure guides the individuals through three essential phases: Exploration Phase–Presentations, visual games, and foundational lessons introduce students to various disciplines, helping them discover their interests. Development Phase–They start defining their creative goals, practicing their skills, and trying out various artistic approaches. Mastery Phase - With a clear direction, students focus on long-term goals, whether as hobbyists, brand-focused professionals, or future educators. Disciplines covered include architecture, painting, illustration, concept design (especially for gaming), animation, digital art, children's book illustration, film, writing, and music (singing & songwriting). A Purposeful, Transparent Approach I work closely with each student, providing objective yet supportive evaluations to identify their strongest direction. I plan to guide serious, passionate learners—not to mislead families into unnecessary expenses. I will try to be straightforward - in a decent and not discouraging way - and communicate it if a child is unsuited for this path. A Valuable Investment in Thinking & Creativity Even if a student ultimately chooses a non-artistic career, this course fosters critical and creative thinking, which are essential skills for any field. The knowledge gained here is never wasted; it’s an investment in adaptability, innovation, and problem-solving abilities that transcend the arts.

Learn how to draw, improve your art skills, discover the artist within, or use art as a therapy option with me
I have gained experience working with art masters in fields such as painting, ceramics, sculpture, textiles, and graphic design. I have used this knowledge to create my own path as a dynamic artist. Most of my works are paintings and illustrations. I use traditional art materials such as pen, ink, charcoal, graphite, pencil, watercolour, pastel, gouache, acrylic, and oil. I also use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Clip Studio Paint for artistic representation. Do you need fundamental art knowledge, improvement on your skills, therapeutical art, or specified art training? My lessons are tailored to individual needs according to your level and your intentions. I will create a course based on what you want to achieve. My lessons are fun with focus on individual interest! Please note: Only English speakers

Online drawing class - Technics & imagination - all publics
I’m a drawing teacher and artist living in Paris. Since 6 years, I provide drawing class to many publics, from school to urban sketching sessions. Since two years, I also give online drawing class for all public. I have an IPad, so I can share my screen to guide my student by drawing directly on it and show them some drawing technics as if we were on the same spot. Learning drawing is half about learning basics technics, like perspective, contrasts and human form, and half about trusting your own vision, by observation work or imagination exercices. My teaching program is always a combination of those elements.

Jaume
MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen. I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist. I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns. In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on. You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns. Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Vicky
Group Creative Therapy: Story-making for Wellbeing
These online workshops offer opportunity for arrival, expansion and connection through a combination of meditation, movement and story-making exercises. Each workshop lasts 90 minutes and a typical session may include stretching and movement exercises, improvisation games, collaborative storytelling and guided meditation. Each session offers the opportunity for experiencing and practicing grounding (being connected to our present space and time) and offers us connection with our imagination, with our creativity and with the others in our group. Testimonials from past participants: “It feels like Vicky’s created a space that will mould itself to our shapes, rather than us having to find a way to fit in.” “I always leave feeling like it was worthwhile and like we creatively achieved something. Even if it's something small. Very gratifying stuff for quite a short length of time.” “It is really beneficial to have someone facilitating these thought processes in the way that Vicky does. It is evident that Vicky carefully curates these exercises to meet the mood of the 'room'.” “I often come out of the workshops feeling refreshed - a state that is quite hard to attain during this period of lockdown and mundanity.”

Drawing and Painting Lessons: Developing Your Unique Visual Language
Painting and drawing are not just techniques—they are also powerful tools for presentation, mediation, and self-expression. This class will guide you through the essentials of painting and drawing, covering foundational skills such as perspective, anatomy, and color theory, as well as techniques for analyzing and critiquing artwork. From still life and portraiture to landscapes, abstract painting, and multimedia art, this course will support you in developing your unique visual language. Based on your individual goals and interests, I will create a tailored plan to help you achieve the best possible outcomes in your artistic journey.

Idris
Painting Tutor: Discover and develop your artistic language
I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London. Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don't always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you! Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs. The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language. (Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.) Have questions? Don't hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)
