I hold a degree in Illustration and Visual Media, and creativity has always been at the heart of everything I do. Teaching is one of my greatest passions. I love working with students of all ages, from young learners to adults, and I’m constantly inspired by the excitement that comes from discovering something new.

In my classes, we explore Art, Digital Art, and Art History dynamically and engagingly.
Lessons are hands-on, visually rich, and designed to make complex ideas more accessible.
I use a wide range of examples, visual maps, and interactive exercises to support different learning styles, especially helpful for visual learners and students with DSA.

Thanks to my background as a graphic designer, I bring practical, real-world experience to the classroom.
I teach using professional tools like Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) and Canva, helping students not only understand artistic theory but also build valuable digital skills used in the industry today.

Here’s what my students benefit from:

A clear understanding of design workflows: from concept to final layout

A trained eye for composition, colour, typography, and visual balance

Creative exercises that encourage personal expression and experimentation

Guidance through design challenges using practical problem-solving

Real project experience with tips, tools, and insights beyond textbooks

I’m a patient and approachable teacher who believes in building a relationship based on trust, open communication, and creative freedom. My goal is to create a safe and inspiring space where students feel confident to express themselves, ask questions, and grow.

I studied History through high school, gaining knowledge of major eras (Ancient, Medieval, Modern), key events, historical figures, and the causes and consequences of events. I also developed skills in analysing sources and understanding how the past influences the present.

I use visual maps often to help students see spatial relationships and context, making history more concrete and memorable. I teach students of all ages, from children through to adults, and I always ensure that I provide summaries at the end of lessons so that key points are clear and retained. Throughout the class, I ask questions to students to check that they have understood the material and to promote active participation.

I studied Geography through high school: I gained knowledge of both physical and human geography, landforms, climate, population, migration, environment, and learned to analyse how places change over time and how humans interact with the environment. I have also developed skills in using maps, interpreting data, and making connections between what we see in the world and what we learn in class.

I teach students of all ages—from young children to adults—and I believe in making geography engaging and relevant. I use visual maps often to help students see spatial relationships and understand contexts more clearly. At the end of lessons, I do summaries, and I regularly ask questions to ensure students have really understood the material.

Because of my graphic design experience, I bring practical skills into geography lessons: using tools like Canva for creating visual maps and layout activities; and helping students work with design thinking so their geographic work is clear, clean, and visually effective. I aim not only to teach content but also to build confidence in interpreting maps, analysing places, and expressing ideas. I am patient, transparent, and committed to creating a trusting relationship with students so that learning happens in a safe, inspiring space.

Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.

I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.

I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.

In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.

You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.

Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

🎓 Methodological support for research-creation theses (Master's & Doctoral level)
Are you preparing a thesis in visual arts, digital arts or aesthetics, and you feel stuck?

- You don't know where to start?
- Is your plan lacking in coherence?
- Do you have difficulty articulating your artistic practice with theoretical concepts?
- Are you experiencing a block in your writing?

I support you in structuring your artistic and theoretical thinking through an original method I have developed: the Constellations Model, designed specifically for research-creation.

🌿 My approach
My job is to help you:

- Clarify your artistic intentions
- Identify your mental and conceptual associations
- Develop a personal methodology based on your practice
- Articulating artistic approach and theoretical frameworks
- Develop a writing style that is sensitive, rigorous, and critical

👀 In the age of artificial intelligence, I help you develop a unique and structured way of thinking that automated tools cannot produce.
👀 AI can assist writing — but it does not replace either an embodied methodology or critical thinking rooted in your practice.

🛠 Support may include:

- Mental and semantic association exercises
- Clarification of intentions and motivations (reflective methods)
- Assistance in structuring the plan
- Introduction to aesthetic and technical analysis methods
- Editorial support

🎯 Target audience
- Students in a research-creation Master's program
- Pre-doctoral students
- Doctoral students
- Artists developing a theoretical reflection on their practice

🥇Areas of expertise:
- Visual Arts
- Arts and new media, digital arts
- Research-creation methodology

Analysis of your project, identification of obstacles and proposal of a personalized strategy.

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 12 years of practice teaching people how to do it. We work together step by step to understand the technique, the way to prepare wooden panel to paint an icon and the techniques of making a good project to make the icon fit to the board. We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the halos. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London.

Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don’t always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you!

Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs.

The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language.

(Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it. But also be mindful that as we grow our interests can change and as they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.)

Have questions? Don’t hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

I teach digital painting with a focus on clarity, structure, and outcome. You’ll learn how to control digital brushes, build convincing lighting, use color intentionally, and create textures that add depth. We’ll move from the basics of composition to the challenges of designing characters, surreal environments, and expressive scenes.

By the end, you’ll produce portfolio-ready artworks and understand a professional workflow from sketch to finish. Each session combines hands-on exercises with discussion of artistic choices, so you strengthen both technical skill and creative judgment.

This course is for beginners and intermediate artists who want to go beyond tutorials and actually build a body of polished, original work.
