Hello, I am Professor Alexzandra with a Master of Fine Arts from Savannah College of Art & Design. My passion in life, aside from creating, is teaching others how to freely express themselves.
I have been told that my enthusiasm can ignite a classroom because I seem to have a gift in helping others really find the best outlet to express themselves in a healthy and uplifting way. I believe my unique approach to teaching makes the process enjoyable for any level of experience.
My personal passions are music, great films, and the beautiful creatures of this planet (kitties in particular).
I am all about teaching a powerful lesson that leaves an impact but also incorporates humor and light-heartedness as I have noticed it allows the students to loosen up, relinquish self-doubt, and helps enable them to want to dive deeper into the world of creation. My patience runs deep because there is no greater feeling than seeing that smile of accomplishment that I can instill within my students.
TESTIMONIALS:
"Alexzandra brought inspiration and delight to my tough, inner-city stage crew students when she taught a painting project to my class of twenty-three 7th and 8th graders. Her prototype was beautiful, but her "how to" explanations, problem solving, trouble-shooting, patience and connection with the kids helped them all to feel successful and proud of themselves for the art piece they created. I am so happy she came and taught my class!"
