Information about Katie

I am a visionary art and design educator, who looks to inspire every child who enters my classroom. I have a project-based learning style so that students can work independently to create unique projects. My expertise lies in fine art and photography, which I use to guide students to transform their visions into tangible masterpieces. My career spans across borders, having shared my knowledge internationally, enriching students` global perspectives. My classes are a canvas for innovation, fostering critical thinking and artistic expression. I am dedicated to cultivating the next generation of artists and designers, so whether you are just looking to improve your knowledge and skills or you are looking to put together a university portfolio, I can help guide you.

I believe an art education for young students should be a gateway to a world of creativity and self-expression. It should nurture curiosity and imagination, allowing students to explore mediums and techniques freely. Beyond honing artistic skills, it should instil confidence, encouraging them to communicate ideas visually and solve problems creatively.

In my lessons, students will gain an appreciation for cultural diversity and art history, and be shown how art reflects society through the ages. My lessons cultivate critical thinking, encouraging students to analyse and interpret visual messages. Ultimately, my lessons aim to embrace student individuality so they can contribute to a more vibrant and empathetic world.

Experience: With two degrees in Fine Art and a teaching qualification specialising in Secondary School Art Education, I bring a rich tapestry of knowledge to my role as an Art and Design teacher and tutor, across international and UK contexts. Over the years, my pedagogical journey has centred on ages 11-18, as well as guiding students through the intricate process of university applications. My emphasis on fostering independent learning in art forms the backbone of my teaching philosophy. I believe in empowering students to explore and express their creativity autonomously. Whether teaching abroad or in the UK, I`ve cultivated an environment that transcends borders, celebrating diverse perspectives and global artistic influences. I am experienced in teaching British National Art & Design curriculums KS3 & KS4 with awarding bodies AQA and OCR. Concerning International curriculums, I have 3 years experience teaching Cambridge International iGCSE and A-Level Art & Design, and I am also a certified IB DP Visual Arts teacher.
