Information About Rebecca:

Personal Description:

I was school educated in England but was fortunate to be offered a degree course in Queensland, Australia studying a Art and specialising in sculpture. Afterwards, I returned to England and completed a PGCE course which qualified me to become an Art and Design teacher for mainly secondary school age group.
I continue to develop my own art skills alongside my teaching practice which keeps me up to date with my own skills and learning more about different techniques with different media.

Teaching Experience:

I have taught Art for over 20 years in private and state schools and have a great passion for the subject which I use to inspire my students. In this time, I have successfully been a Head of department at various stages in my career, as well as mentored trainee Art teachers.
Over my career, I have supported and guided students with their coursework, exam preparation and portfolios for undergraduate art based degrees. Additionally, I have shown them how to devise personal statements for their UCAS applications.

Tutoring Approach:

I am a highly organised and experienced teacher with over 20 years in education, dedicated to helping students achieve their full potential. My tutoring approach is supportive, personalised, and focused on identifying both strengths and areas for development. I take pride in understanding each student's individual needs, enabling me to effectively address weaknesses while building confidence and enhancing existing skills.

My lessons are carefully structured to ensure clear progression and purpose. Each session includes time to review previously set work, allowing students to reflect on their learning, consolidate understanding, and recognise their progress. I then guide them through the next steps needed to further improve, ensuring continuous development and measurable outcomes.

I strive to create a positive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and taking academic risks. By combining structure with flexibility, I adapt my teaching methods to suit different learning styles, helping students stay engaged and motivated.

Ultimately, my goal is to support students in producing their very best work, equipping them with the skills, strategies, and confidence they need to succeed both academically and independently.

Qualifications:

• BA in Visual Arts (specialised in sculpture)
• PGCE in Art & Design
• Mentor to art Teachers
