I can impart the love of design, what greater gift is there?

I'm an easy going teacher, software and design requires patience in both the student and teacher. It is a show and tell, where you will be explaining yourself repeatedly. I feel the best teachers, show the student what they expect, and have the student both verbally and by demonstration show they understand the processes. If they can't verbally walk me through it, it hasn't sunk in and they won't be able to repeat the lesson when I'm not around. I don't want that, I'm paid to make sure that isn't the case.
Interdisciplinary professional with Art Direction, brand strategy, project management, promotional design experience. An accomplished visual designer. I've spent 20 years providing solutions for startups, ad agencies, fortune 1000, and 500 clients. I also have other applicable areas of capabilities based on various experiences: these include business development / brand ma ... read more

Art & Design are not about software but skills

I was taught by professionals, the teachers I had were drill sergants installing skills through repetition. I work much the same way. The lessons I create are going to repeat form and function, proportion, typography and layout, pre production planning as well as the subject matter. You have to learn to walk before you get to the Olympics. This helps refresh people looking for that, and instilling the skills and understanding of the time it will take you to get to where you want with your skills. A computer is a tool, like a pencil nothing more, it won't make you a great artist, unless you have the foundation(s). In the 'working' world... Design isn’t about software or computers, it’s about visual communication. Every project has a set of goals that it seeks to accomplish. These goals might include anything from persuading someone to buy a candy bar to organizing a large amount of ... read more

I want to bring out the potential of the student by learning their strengths and weaknesses and hone in on how we can solve problems together. That is what design is all about, stating the problem and figuring out the most effective solution. It can be challenging at times, but the solution is always there. I want to show students how graphic and web design can be a fun and rewarding journey.
I have a Bachelors of Fine Art in Photography from Texas Woman's University in Denton, TX, and an Associates in Interactive Design Specialization from Austin Community College. I currently am the Web Master for Waterloo Records & Video in Austin, TX and do freelance work as a web designer for clients here in Austin.

More About This Tutor...

I am a recent graduate from Indiana University who has a passion for art, history, and film. I spent most of my college career teaching at IU Outdoor Adventures, Indiana University's outdoor recreation program. There, I gained the skills to instruct on rock climbing and backpacking. I believe that the teaching style I learned there pertains to teaching any subject. A teacher should guide the student to the answer, rather than giving it to them in an easy answer. I also worked as a Naturecrafts staff member at Camp Barney Medintz in Cleveland, GA. At CBM, I taught kids ages 8 to 16 outdoor skills and guided backpacking trips. Working there taught me how to best educate all ages in a fun and interactive manner. Whether it be playing a game or taking a walk, learning can be enjoyable.

Graphic Design is one of my top subjects! I am a highly creative and skilled graphic designer, illustrator, and web designer with great studio management skills who thrives in the media and advertising sectors. I have extensive graphic design knowledge, and I am a locally-published web designer who brings exceptional knowledge and enthusiasm to every design process and project. I am a designer successful at experimenting with new approaches, techniques, and software. I thrive under pressure and I am inspired by an artistic challenge. I have an Associates of Applied Science in Visual Communication (Graphic Design) as well as a Certificate of Proficiency in Graphic Design. I have been working as a designer for 6 years and have been employed at Tyler Junior College as their Graphic Designer in their Marketing and Digital Media department for the last two years. I am currently enrolled as a student at Texas State University and pursuing a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Communication Design. I am proficient in many Adobe Creative Suite software programs to generate high quality images and web pages. The software that I am proficient with are: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign, Muse, Lightroom, and more. My skills include: Illustration, graphic design, web design, drawing, custom typography, commercial and advertisement design, multimedia design, typesetting, identity and branding.

Being a professional designer is about making the boring interesting. You must possess a strong sense of aesthetics and be able to turn something ugly into something beautiful. Design isn’t about software or computers necessarily, it’s about visual communication. Being a designer is about understanding people (often very specific groups of them). You must intuitively or explicitly know a thing or two about human psychology. What motivates people to act? How will people respond to certain visual styles? How can you leverage design to help people understand whatever it is you want to tell them? With this said, I believe that a solid foundation in basic design principles is an absolute must and will stay with a person for their entire career. A great way to teach good design practices is by showcasing bad ones, discussing why they’re bad and creating beautiful pieces of work while giving t ... read more

My teaching style is to do whatever works, and to get it done. I pride myself on working with my students on their level and being able to understand their personal barrier to grasping the material. I am very conscious of not imposing upon them the way it "should be done". The way it should be done is whatever way makes sense to them and as a tutor, I work hard to find this "way". I have developed the patience to work with students at their pace and to also challenge them to expand their boundaries. Ultimately, patience and persistence are what can be used to summarize my teaching style.
I have been tutoring since 2006 and have covered a broad range of subjects during my time. My tutoring experience ranges from helping elementary students prepare for private school entrance exams to tutoring college students in math, english, economics, and history and everything in between. ... read more
