"How to Teach Your Art" -- coaching for artists who want to start teaching workshops or improve their classes. Experienced instructor Tina K can help you fine tune your presentation to your audience of visual learners. Learn practical tips for:

• introducing yourself and your project
• creating finished samples with variations
• writing the handout (it's more than just the steps!)
• organizing a class notebook for yourself
• smoothing the flow of the session
• deciding what materials to bring and use
• dealing with different types of students
• projecting a confident and enthusiastic appearance -- and feeling competent and prepared

I have degrees in Education and Communications and taught (the dreaded) public speaking and computer software classes to college students and older adults for many years. I've taught paper arts classes for over five years at the San Francisco Center for the Book. Please leave a message for me at SFCB for a free phone consultation.
