I have experience of teaching at primary schools and post-primary schools, schools for pupils with moderate and severe learning difficulties, and teaching as a lecturer at further and higher education level.
My objectives as an art workshop facilitator are:

-for clients to enjoy, make and keep original artworks
Workshops are for:
-schools, community groups, private parties, public and private business organisations
-people of all ages and abilities
-beginners to advanced.
Workshops can be designed for individuals or groups to meet specific needs.

Testimonial
"Kim has worked in Forth River Primary School, for two years, taking art classes and after schoolclubs for children of various ages. Kim is a really talented artist and teacher with a warm, encouraging attitude. She is very supportive in class and has the ability to bring out the best in each pupil. In school, Kim has taught using a wide range of media and the standard of work which has been produced under her supervision is amazing".
