FAQ

How can parents contact the Instructor if they have questions or concerns?

Please email all questions and concerns to: jessica.artistcorner@gamil.com
What if I have multiple children at different ages – what course do I choose?

We highly recommend following our age guidelines for the best learning environment for your child. However, if you wish to have all your children attend the same course, we suggest choosing the course appropriate for the youngest child. Older children can easily follow lessons designed for younger ages, while younger children often find it difficult to progress through more advanced lessons

Art Foundations I is tailored for younger learners with shorter attention spans and runs for 45 minutes. Art Foundations II and III each run for 50 minutes. All classes allow 5 minutes at the start of each class for students to join and sign on.
What are the teachers qualifications and experience as an art instructor and do they have any specific training in teaching children?
