Teaching

I have been teaching for over 20 years and hold a Diploma in Teaching in the Lifelong Learning Sector: (DTLLS), (2008) Westminster University, London.

I have worked with all ages and abilities, from very young children, young people, with local schools as part of the arts curriculum that encourages working with local artists.

My background is also in healthcare and well-being, holding a First class Honours degree in Complementary Medicine and Healthcare, formally teaching on a Foundation Degree at West London University. I also hold a Coaching and Mentoring qualification. I was fortunate to study for an MA at Kingston School of Art, this unlocked my creativity since being denied the opportunity to take a BA in my youth. Being creative is a joy and I just want to share this.

Currently delivering arts-based workshops for all ages; Kingston Museum, Landmark Arts Centre in Teddington.

Formally teaching on an Art & Design course for 16-19 year olds delivering UAL Qualifications: Level 1, Level 2 & Level 3. The National Saturday Club, a charity engaging young people aged 13-16 in creative arts as part of the Activate Learning Team at Reading College.
