Sculpting is one of my top subjects! Capable of teaching all sculptural disciplines, but most highly specialized in mold-making and casting practices. Especially as related to Polymer, Metal, and Glass casting.

Devon is able to focus his tutoring on a particular craft if it is what his clients desire. For example, teaching the intricacies of sand-molding for bronze casting. For most hobbyists, and passive artists this would be the recommended path. However as he was educated, he prefers to leave the doors of possibility open. Art today is extremely interdisciplinary, and it often requires one to design their intended product, and then research materials and processes in order to execute it. If clients want to pursue a career as an artist, this approach is recommended.
Devon was trained at the Art Institute of Chicago in a variety of fine arts. Sculpture is his primary focus, but he also has experience in painting/drawing, design, film/video, performance, and art-tech. Since receiving his BFA in 2011, Devon has been employed consistently for his sculptural knowledge. Working for Chi ... read more

Sculpting is one of my top subjects! I was a sculpture minor at the College of Santa Fe. I won the Sculpture Department award in the 2009 CSF juried art show, and won 2nd place in the 2010 CSf juried art show.

I've been involved in arts and writing from a very young age. In college I followed these interests and graduated with a BA in Creative Writing while also minoring in Sculpture. In the past I've worked with Elementary School aged children in a after school and summer day camp setting and helped them with everything from essays to art projects, I taught High School students art in a "Teen College" program hosted by my college.

Every student is different, therefore every student has different needs. Every student also can learn differently, whether it be by incorporating more or less visual learning strategies, auditory learning strategies, or using more of the "hands on" approach. Learning can be and should be fun! I love teaching a student to success and when they enjoy what they are doing they are much more likely to succeed!
As an active member of my community, in the form of pageantry, volunteering, and leadership, I have always enjoyed instructing others. Currently, I love my job at Midwest Generation as an Instructional Designer of Training. I get to train Engineers and Office Managers on subjects I knew little about, and have grown in responsibility and development. I love kids, since my summer camp instruction job I held all throughout High School as well as an active instructor at my church. I j ... read more

My focus is on presenting the material in an age appropriate fashion. Each student's needs and skills will vary.Projects are designed to meet these needs, expand existing skills and introduce new skills and media. My art practice is varied and utilizes a wide range of media. I encourage an atmosphere of inspired experimentation and focused technical skill development. I delight in giving young artists the tools to learn, play, and create art. I utilize national standards for age and skill level in developing my projects and classes. Educating is a joy that allows me to share my knowledge and skills with my students.
Starting in 1996, I taught private art lessons in painting and drawing. During my associates degree, I began teaching at the park district. For three years, I taught drawing, painting, mixed media and sculpture to children pre-kindergarden to adult. I also had two adva ... read more

I have come a long way with achieving bachlors in biology and basic medical science. And hopefully on my way to achieving my biggest dream.

I'm always interested in education and continue to learn materials that I've already studied and furthermore, gain more knowledge through teaching others or their inputs.

I've taught numerous weekend art classes to students ages 6-14 that included earth art, drawing comics, 3-D art, and LEGO simple machines. The Morton Arboretum teaches me the value of connecting people of all ages to nature through observation, activities, and art. Leading students at an Elementary School has taught me how to effectively step into any educator's position and accomplish instructional goals with precision and pride among students of varied talents and abilities. I am well versed in computer applications such as Microsoft Word, i-Movie, i-DVD, i-Photo, Kid Pix, Windows Movie Maker, and am comfortable with using technology with children. I'd value the opportunity to bring art lessons to your home, studio, or school.
I am patient, easy going, and enthusiastic about sharing my talents and knowledge in visual arts. I believe in practicing student centered educational meth ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a graduate student from Northern Illinois University where I have earned a BS in elementary education, which enabled me to gain an understanding of teaching children as a whole as well as in small groups. I have had experience student teaching, working one-on-one with students, and as a high school helper. These experiences have taught me how to teach children and help them understand and grasp numerous concepts by using various teaching styles and activities to meet the needs of individual students.
My background in teaching kindergarten and first grade include hands-on activities to keep their natural curiosity alive and develop new curiosity. The number one thing that I love about teaching is seeing the progression of abilities in my students. Especially at such a young age, it is amazing to see my students use their higher level thinking. Knowing that my students’ confiden ... read more

I have mostly taught university-level students but I have occasionally worked with high school students. I would like the opportunity to work with all age groups. In my opinion, students learn in many different ways so it is useful to approach difficult concepts in practical ways. I like to use visual media when teaching (films, excerpts from relevant programs, still images, powerpoint) to reiterate main points. I like to work closely with students and believe this type of communication is what allows each student to fully understand what's expected in the assignment. I believe providing a comfortable and easy going approach to tutoring so that learning is enjoyable. I am honest, patient, and nice.
I have taught university-level art history courses for the last 7 years. These courses include training in writing, presentation, and speaking in addition to their emphasis on the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In my teaching I employ communicative tools to facilitate both individual and group instruction. I am often energized when I work with students and feel responsible to transfer something they will apply in their daily lives. As a painting instructor I rely on good communication, clear direction and enjoy talking with students about what they see in their work how to clafify their objectives.
In my teaching I stress fundamental design principles, technique and color theory. I am also invested in exposing students to art history which I believe enriches,informs and helps to shape a students own individual style. I have instructed adult classes in oil painting that focus on the figure, landscape and portraiture. Currently I implement arts integrated programs for K-8 in the Chicago Public Schools as a contractor.

More About This Tutor...

While pursuing my honors degree in mathematics at the University of Chicago, I supported myself through numerous tutoring jobs. I have taught mathematics to students of all ages and abilities, including college-level calculus, set theory, logic, number theory, trigonometry, geometry, algebra, and arithmetic. I have also tutored my fellow students in various topics of physics. While conducting several research projects in pure mathematics, I spent the summers teaching public school teachers in Chicago new ways to improve their classroom instruction. I also have extensive experience in the humanities. My second degree is a BA (honors) in film theory, which is complemented by many classes in philosophy, literature, and art history.
The advantage of one-on-one tutoring is the productive, personal relationship that arises between tutor and student. As a tutor, I use this relationship to ... read more

I believe that the role of a teacher is to capture the curiosity of students by providing them with lessons and activities that require them to think outside of the box. Such activities should be hands-on and encourage the students to use their senses. I agree with John Dewey, the famous education philosopher, who believes that it is beneficial when teachers use experiential learning because it engages students and presents them with direct experience and focused reflection, which in turn, increases knowledge, develops skills, and clarifies values. I believe that when teachers provide students with hands-on activities, they have a better chance of becoming actively engaged in each lesson.
I am an energetic and dedicated teacher who strives to encourage students to go beyond their very best by creating a positive and respectful learning environment. I establish high expectations for ... read more
