With each student I discuss their short and long term goals, for example what skills they need to improve and what topics they need to gain a deeper understanding in. Once lesson objectives are established, I assess their present level, and plan a personalised programme, with written work, source analysis, visual analysis and contextual information. Throughout the lessons I closely monitor student progress, and update lessons plans where appropriate.
For Fine Art students, I work to develop their knowledge of art and contextualise with practice, develop a methodology and process and build on the fundamental skills of drawing and painting.

Xenia is a highly skilled figurative artist and an excellent and inspiring tutor. Our art lessons were insightful and helpful and lasted over the course of 2 academic years. I significantly improved my skillset and learnt how to draw and paint from life in charcoal and oil. Xenia gave demonstrations to explain concepts and techniques and showed her process. I really enjoyed that Xenia included historical information about artists, methods and the role of art in society, drawing on her background in Art History. During our lessons, I made a self-portrait and copies of famous artists such as Rembrandt. Xenia taught me how to begin a painting from a charcoal drawing, transfer it onto canvas and build up the painting layer by layer. I learnt how to use sight-size, proportions, composition, values and colour. Xenia gave useful feedback on my progress, suggestions on how to improve my work and advice about further artistic study. Xenia is a friendly and engaging tutor, and above all our lessons were fun and enjoyable – I would highly recommend her to other students!
