Business Advice One-One Tutorials

Online tutoring is an easy and fun way of learning with no travel costs and at a time that suits you.

One-One Online Tutorials are a great opportunity for you to receive quality bespoke feedback on your personal requirements, which can either lead to a successful art and design portfolio, or for the practising artist or designer, inspire innovative ideas and concepts, alongside the exploration of materials, process and technique.

Some Art and Design Portfolio Preparation Course tutees also choose to book One-One Tutorials for finalising the organisation of their portfolio and their online Foundation, UCAS or Masters applications. As well as professional development and a change in career.
We try to be flexible and offer a choice of online pay-as-you-go or block booking.
Beginners to advanced level are welcome.

Each One-One Online Tutorial booking is delivered in either 1-hour or 2-hour session. During each session, you will then be set specific tasks to learn or improve that relate to your personal needs. At the end of each session, an ‘Independent Study’ outline will be discussed and drawn up for you to follow through in your own time. The whole process is very bespoke led which is ideal for your University applications and professional goals.

Online Tutorials can also be booked for support and advice on your whole online UCAS application.
