My idea is that we do art together while speaking English, so you will get tips and ideas on creative means and also English. I have a degree in Fine Arts and have a keen interest in both abstract painting, collage, sculpting and coming up with new ways of combining materials so they marry well together.

As an example it could be something like this:

Folklore art in different countries, giving a few examples of classes. And the classes would be project based, so from starting with an idea, log booking, planning – and with an exhibition at the end (if it would be ok to do so around school somewhere)

- Japanese good luck dolls (paper mâché/plaster)

- Chinese wish pots (ceramics, paper mâché)

- Swedish indigenous people’s drums (wire, fabric/plastic, used materials)

- Native American’s dream catcher (wood, string, found objects)

- Inca cross Chakana (ceramics, wood, paper)

If none of these options appeal to you we can have a talk so see where your interest lays and I can form a course according to your liking.
