GO SKETCH

GO SKETCH GO SKETCH help children boost their confidence and self esteem through online and face to face art classes. Visit our online art room at gosketchclub.com.

Our enjoyable workshops offer children the chance to develop their drawing, painting and sculpture skills in an encouraging, non-judgemental environment. With only 4% of the school year dedicated to art, we provide budding artists with valuable time to explore the work of different artists and to try different techniques. A parent recently said thank you for giving her son confidence that he can ‘

do art’ and another said she was particularly impressed by the way we ‘recognise and promote the children’s individuality’. We don’t assess the children’s artwork to an expected standard as we recognise that the art world is varied and what matters is the freedom to express ourselves without fear of judgement. If a child leaves our workshop more confident in their artistic ability, then our job is done! Come and say hi! Instagram: https://instagram.com/go.sketch/

"My children respond so well to your teaching style, particularly the fact that you are not prescriptive, and they are not expected to do step by step drawing. (I'm sure you know how demoralising that can be for kids when they struggle to get it 'right'.) The positive messaging that you provide is really effective."

Kate Diamond

"We just wanted to thank you, for being so engaging and enthusiastic. My son is working on his confidence so you won’t hear him unmute very often, but please be assured that he’s thoroughly enjoying it. He spends at least an hour after the session getting super Arty, Which we adore! thanks Emma "

Why should you try 1-1 tuition for your child or yourself!

If you’ve ever said “I used to love art, but I’m just not confident anymore,” you’re definitely not alone.

Over the years of teaching, I’ve met so many lovely people who stopped drawing or painting because life got busy, confidence wobbled, or someone once told them they “weren’t good at art.” (Spoiler: that’s never true!) I am often also asked to help young artists in primary and secondary school gain more confidence when creating their own art or developing their portfolio for GCSE.

That’s one of the main reasons I started offering one-to-one art tuition in addition to our group tuition sessions.

Here are 4 reasons that one to one tuition may be for you or your child...

💛 Time and Space That’s All Yours
In a one-to-one session, there’s no rush and no pressure to keep up with anyone else. You can take things at your own pace, ask questions freely, and explore what you genuinely enjoy.

Maybe you want to get back into painting for relaxation, build confidence for GCSE Art, or just have some creative “you time.” Whatever your reason, I’ll tailor each session to fit you — your pace, your goals, and your style.

🌿 Rebuilding Confidence, One Brushstroke at a Time
One of my favourite parts of teaching is seeing someone’s face light up when they realise, “I actually made that!” That little spark of pride is huge — and it’s where confidence starts to grow again.

☕ A Calm, Supportive Space to Create

Whether we’re meeting online or in person, I’ll make sure our sessions feel relaxed and enjoyable. Mistakes? We welcome them! They’re often where the best creative discoveries happen.

You don’t need any fancy materials or experience — just curiosity and a willingness to have a go. I’ll help you with whatever area of art you’d like to explore, from drawing and watercolour to mixed media or clay.

Would you like a free trial art class online?

As many of you know, I love drawing with you all in our drawing tuition classes after school and our Weds morning art club for home-educating families. Many of you have been coming to the classes for years now and we have such a lovely supportive atmosphere in the classes.

Remember:
* We don't teach step by step because we want pupils to develop their own ideas just like an artist

*We aim to increase confidence by realising that drawing something you don't like is simply part of the creative process that every artist goes through

*We teach the skills and then give you permission to break them if you want

*You can interact as much or as little as you like in the classes
We start again this week!

If you would like to try a class first, do reply and I can book you on a free trial class to any of the classes below.

Options:

1. Drawing Tuition for age 9-16

Tues or Thurs 5pm-6pm
(You can jump into the other class if you can't make your regular class one week)

Focusing on line, shape, form, tone, texture, colour and space.
