Information About Sophie:

Personal Description:

I am a Freelance Artist and Arts Tutor whose personal practice specialises in Fine Art Painting. I have a wide range of knowledge in arts and crafts skills and facilitate workshops to both children and adults across London. I am a friendly and personable individual and enjoy meeting and working with new people.

Teaching Experience:

For the last 3 years I have worked as a Freelance Arts Tutor in Scotland delivering workshops and events in Community Centres and Schools across the city. The role requires working with a wide range of ages and abilities and I work with each individual to help them achieve their full potential.

I have worked for a Scottish Hospitals Arts Trust in the past delivering sessions to Orthopaedic, Neurological and Stroke Rehabilitation patients. Through these sessions I meet so many different types of people and the work is very rewarding.

Last year I worked as Artist in Residence for the Painting department at Gray's School of Art. In this role I acted as a mentor and technician for students studying on the course. In this position I advised students as to future career choices and helped tutors with the day to day running of the course and curriculum.

Tutoring Approach:

I have quite a laid back and informal approach to teaching. I believe that creativity thrives best with a certain balance between freedom and encouragement when necessary. I always encourage group discussion and reviewing of work as I think it helps every individual to progress in a positive way. I work with each individual to encourage confidence and knowledge in their chosen subject.

Qualifications:

• First Class Ba Hons in Fine Art Painting
