We deliver onsite studio art and design portfolio preparation courses, online portfolio courses, and 1-1- tuition. This applies to all of our art classes. We also deliver a Hybrid approach which allows more flexibility. This can be very helpful for many reasons: lifestyle choices,  you may be living in between countries or places, you may be too unwell to travel but can still join the group and continue your studies online, or you may need to keep your accommodation, living and travel costs down. We understand your personal decisions the choice is yours. We can teach and reach out to anyone in the world. What we do require is full attendance, whether it be onsite or online. The longer you study with us, the more you learn!

Choose any of the following:

  • onsite studio art and design portfolio preparation courses and 1-1- tutorial support
  • live online portfolio preparation courses, 1-1 tuition and mentor support
  • blended hybrid learning is the perfect solution for some students.

The LAP course is a great way to raise the level of your English language and written skills whilst building up a strong art and design specialist vocabulary. Beginners, career change applicants and professionals are all welcome. We have the skills and expertise to teach each level.

SCHEDULE

Days: Monday – Thursday: 9 am – 4 pm
Tuition: 9 am-12 noon
Self-study: 1 pm – 4pm

Afternoon Study:

Students are expected to continue their morning study independently each afternoon and to be ready to share their work the following morning to receive helpful feedback. This applies to both onsite and online students. In this way, you can fully benefit from our portfolio course programme.  We do realise that in the Summer you may have other commitments planned in the afternoon. Full attendance is expected.

Online Study:

LAP uses Zoom. Please have PowerPoint, Microsoft Word or the Google Suite already set up on your computer, with plenty of space available plus an external drive or USB.
