About Sophie

Education:
I am a current Graphic Communication Design student studying at Central Saint Martins, which is continuously ranked among the top five art schools in the world. I also achieved A* in both Art IGCSE and A level, scoring 98% in my final outcome). I have attended multiple life drawing, film, portfolio preparation and graphic design courses at Central Saint Martins, Ravensbourne, and Kingston School of Art.

Experience and Knowledge:
I recently myself have gone through the entire Art School application process, so everything I did and learnt is fresh in my mind. I was offered every single Art School I applied for both foundation and BA, where it was compulsory to prepare individual personal statements, portfolios and interviews. These universities include top Art schools such as Central Saint Martins, Kingston, London College of Communications, Nottingham Trent, Leeds Art Uni etc.
I am currently Course Rep for my course, and it is extremely fulfilling. This role has given me further insight into the creative world, and direct connection and meetings with the Vice Chancellor and course leaders. Therefore, I have a better idea of what they look for in prospective students.

About the lesson

What makes Art and Design so wonderful is how everyone's style, inspiration and interests are so different and personal. To start off, I must view some recent work so I can analyse it and tailor the lessons to what you need as an artist/designer.

I am offering help in A-level, applications for Art Foundation and BA courses in the UK (UCAS). Having recently just started my BA, everything I learnt about Art School application is fresh in my memory, and I base my teaching on my own experience of art education with a passionate and fun approach!

Preparation for art school application (Art Foundation and BA Graphics/Fine Art/Fashion courses):
- all rounded knowledge and experience of various art & design courses and universities in the UK
- tailored advice on choosing the best course for the particular student
- assisting of a professional portfolio made on InDesign
- online portfolio preparation (content selection, format, and presentation) / real portfolio
- interview preparation (gaining confidence while speaking about your own art work in a group setting)
- personal statement advice (art school statements vary greatly to any other UCAS statements and require a different layout and content)

Examples of my current students:
Student 1 - a mature student who wanted portfolio advice, having applied to University of the Arts Antwerp, Central Saint Martins, London College of Fashion, in which I advised. The portfolio went through 2 rounds, and then we focused on interview prep and how to exude confidence when being asked about your portfolio.

Student 2 - an Illustration student who wanted advice on UCAS. We worked together to put her personal statement together and she is now at Camberwell studying Illustration!

Student 3 -a student aspiring to study Economics at university in London, but needs atleast an A/A* in her Art A level. Every week, we discuss what she has achieved, we go through ways to improve her sketchbook, as well as discovering new niche artists together for her portfolio.

Makiko's daughter Jasmine is such a delight to teach. Not only is she talented with her drawing skills, she is open-minded and happy to take suggestions from me which elevates her work further! I am so honored to have tutored Jasmine for her upcoming GCSE's and I hope to see her propel further in her creative endeavours and journey! And thank you for all the incredible Japanese snacks I get given :)

I can’t believe the energy Sophie brings into her lessons, I sat with my son through the first session and they are both fun and professional, now he keeps asking when she will be back! Originally thought we would get a couple lessons but I can see his passion for art growing every week

I would 100% recommend Sophie for her invaluable assistance in helping me achieve my dream of studying illustration at Camberwell. I met her through my cousin's friends.

From the moment I met Sophie, I was struck by her approachability, kindness, and non-judgmental nature. As someone who was initially unsure about pursuing a career in illustration, Sophie's support and guidance were instrumental in helping me build confidence in my abilities and pursue my goals with enthusiasm.

Sophie went above and beyond to help me prepare my application, offering constructive feedback on my portfolio and personal statement. She took the time to understand my strengths and interests, and her thoughtful advice helped me to present myself in the best possible light.
Thanks to Sophie's help, I was accepted into the illustration program at Camberwell!

I know Sophie as she was the year above me at my school. She was one of the only students to get into all her art schools and I asked for so much help for my own application. Sophie is patient and kind to everyone she interacts with. She exudes a very friendly demeanour which makes her very lovable and approachable. Her attention to detail allows her to give constructive criticism and she truly improved my portfolio, which led me to be accepted onto the foundation course at Central Saint Martins. I highly recommend Sophie as an art tutor and I have no doubt that her students will thrive with her mentorship.
