Personal Description:

My name is Andrea Christodoulides and I come from Nicosia, Cyprus. I am a practicing artist with my own studio in London and I am also teaching Art in a very competitive Grammar school in East London.

Teaching Experience:

I am a certified and practicing Art teacher working in an amazing and competitive grammar school in London. I have been teaching in schools in the past 3 years and I have experience of the GCSE and A-level process really well.

Teaching Approach:

Generally art and painting requires self-motivation and individual study. From experience I know that especially for GCSE and A-Level, children and young adults need a structure that they can work within and a process that they will eventually learn and adapt for themselves to be able to excel. Work needs to be done weekly with the tutor (myself) but also individually, spending at least 3 hours a week working on the drawings/paintings/sculptures to build a strong portfolio. I will be able to help by exploring the different art movements along with the students and the various important artists of our time to help understand the parameters that they were working within and also understand the role we play today as current living artists. I will also help with gathering ideas, assigning tasks, overlooking the process, perfecting the practical work and forming links and concepts. For students that are beginners, we will start working from the basics of drawing from life and then the formation of ideas and image making through different techniques.
