I provide taught sessions in primary and secondary schools across Yorkshire & the UK. Please contact me regarding possible sources of funding for the cost of materials (up to £250 vouchers).
Whilst teaching mosaics in schools I have sought to link the sessions to the national curriculum by exploring the history of mosaics - with particular reference to the Romans; maths - calculating the number of tiles required and cost to cover a given area; ICT - designing a mosaic on the pc and exploring other mosaic artists via the web; English - providing a written quiz; and, geography - asking the children to consider where they have seen mosaics across the world, for eg, holidays abroad.
I have taught in a wide variety of schools including rural, urban, special needs, public, private, small and large. Projects have included mosaicing a mirror to external and internal wall mosaics.
I hold a clear Enhanced Criminal Record Certificate (CRB check) available for inspection.
I also run mosaic workshops for adults and I am qualified to teach adult learners (City & Guilds PTTLS). Mosaic workshops can be arranged to explore the direct and indirect methods of making mosaics using a variety of materials or tailor made to suite a given project.
As a qualified Community Artsworker (having trained with Artlink, Hull) I am available for consultation and facilitation of public community art projects. Projects include school mosaic sessions in Hull, York and Leeds.
If you would like to discuss a taught school session, mosaic workshop or community art project please send an email using the 'contact us' button or call 07929 884759.
