At London Art Portfolio, we pride ourselves on our deep understanding of diverse art education systems worldwide. Julia Dennis, the director, is a vital team member with extensive experience lecturing in Italian at the esteemed Istituto Europeo di Design in Italy. There, she coordinated the Drawing and Creative Thinking Programme for various design departments, demonstrating fluency in Italian and an intimate knowledge of Southern European art education curricula.
Moreover, we are well-versed in international school education programmes across different levels, enabling us to assist students in preparing and applying for degree courses in their own countries.
Our popularity extends beyond Latin-speaking countries in Europe to many parts of South America, including Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and Mexico.
Julia’s proficiency in Italian has proven invaluable for students transitioning to life in the UK, as she possesses a strong understanding of Latin languages. Additionally, many of our tutors at London Art Portfolio are bilingual, a characteristic Julia prioritizes within her Visual Arts Team.
Since its establishment in 2008, London Art Portfolio has consistently attracted students from Norway, Sweden, Iceland, and Denmark. Our institution serves as a hub for aspiring artists, fostering a dynamic environment where students from diverse backgrounds come together to learn and grow.
We have played a pivotal role in supporting Northern European students, particularly those pursuing studies in Architecture, Design, Fine Art, and Fashion Design. However, our support extends across all areas of interest and is tailored to each student’s unique goals and aspirations.
At London Art Portfolio, students benefit immensely from interacting with peers from different parts of Europe and beyond, enriching their educational experience and broadening their perspectives.
As the former Course Leader of the Foundation Course at the National Arts School in Papua New Guinea, Julia Dennis actively engaged with Pacific regions to streamline enrollment processes. Her responsibilities extended to organising scholarships with the Commonwealth Secretariat and collaborating with UNESCO to foster support for visual arts initiatives.
Upon returning to Europe, Julia pursued an MA in International Education Development at Sussex University. Renowned for attracting prominent leaders in international education, including Ministers of Education from around the world, the program provided a platform for in-depth discussions, knowledge sharing, and research into global education systems.
Julia’s diverse background has given her a comprehensive understanding of worldwide art and design education systems. She has assembled talented artists and designers from Britain and the international community. With this wealth of experience, we are confident in our ability to discern the specific requirements of your portfolio, ensuring a successful application to art and design universities in the UK or beyond.
