Hello! It's wonderful to see that you are students who won't give up when a subject proves to be difficult. I'm interested in more than tutoring you in your class work. I'd like to teach you how to learn. Everyone has a different way of thinking, grasping new concepts, and communicating. I understand how to assess your learning style so that we can customize your learning experience and find new ways to use your capabilities.

Hello! It's wonderful to see that you are students who won't give up when a subject proves to be difficult. I'm interested in more than tutoring you in your class work. I'd like to teach you how to learn. Everyone has a different way of thinking, grasping new concepts, and communicating. I understand how to assess your learning style so that we can customize your learning experience and find new ways to use your capabilities.
My first degree was a B.A. in Art with a concentration in painting, but I have since worked in a number of media, including ceramics, sculpture, and stained glass, including painting on stained glass. I later earned a B.S. in Psychology, graduating Summa cum Laude. Numerous independent studies and teaching internships provided ample experience in teaching both children and adults.
While at first glance art and psychology may seem to be unrelated, I have found that my studies in psychology enriched my development as an artist. Artistic expression is the silent language of the mind and a powerful outlet for emotions; even those which we aren't fully aware that we feel. It is fascinating to discover what our art shows us about our inner emotional life, and even hidden aspects of our personality.
I can help you with understanding color theory, perspective, light and shadow, and all the basics of both two- and three-dimensional art forms, as well as more advanced techniques and applications. If inspiration is eluding you, I can show you how to jump-start your imagination and learn to see and even think differently to generate new ideas and fresh insights. I believe that creativity can be taught!
I hope to hear from you soon.
