Ivy Bound – Painting!

This is Ivy Bound’s first class meant for ages 6 to 9.  Our tutors facilitate children painting creatively. The goal of the class is to start children working with art with the help of a teacher or parent and then gradually move them to working independently.

Each session is meant to break into a new realm of art.  Adding colors, adopting a technique, conforming to reality, and giving a message are the skills we focus on.  Reaching a new level of independence is the main goal.

Every two sessions, the child’s work is “evaluated”.  Online participants participate in an online art show and n-person participants do a live “showing” to other classmates. 

Schedule:

   Session 1:  Anticipating, Brainstorming, and Painting Tools.   Getting Started!

   Session 2:  Neatness, allowed messiness.  First complete painting.

   Session 3:  Reality painting – Outdoor Landscape

   Session 4:  Reality painting – People.  Mixing colors. 

   Session 5:  Non-Reality – free form painting

   Session 6:  Message painting (building child confidence).

   Session 7:  Completion painting – students embellish prior work.

  Session 8:  Start-from scratch, complete, and exhibition

During each session, the coach will introduce a technique and reinforce something learned in an earlier class.  Following sessions 2, 4, 6, and 8 the student has a chance to say or write what the paining is meant to convey.

Each class is 75 minutes.  Private and group sessions can be arranged for longer or shorter times.   The first five to ten minutes involve the instructor and the parents.  They set goals, and assure materials and the setting are in order.

Clean-up is 5 to 10 minutes.  This is meant to enforce tidiness, organization, hand washing, and respect for a work space.

Parents are to purchase 6 or more brushes, paints, and sturdy paper.   Brushes should run thin to medium (up to ½ inch).  A palette is a nice touch and is introduced in session 4, but is not necessary.  A large drop-cloth for work is recommended unless the home already has a studio that can get permanently splotched.  Clothing should be comfortable and ready for possible paint spillage.

Pricing:

Price for the 8 sessions – $125

Second child add $40 to total price

If the same child joins in a subsequent month, the charge is $60.

Any questions on our pricing, please contact us by phone.

Ivy Bound Private Tutoring

Private tutoring is Ivy Bound’s most requested service.  Students everywhere love private tutoring because it offers four benefits to your learning:

1) a tutor can meet you on a flexible schedule

2) session length is also flexible, 1-3 hours is standard, but we work with your needs

3) a tutor can tailor the work to your abilities and interests

4) a tutor can pace the learning at the pace YOU want.

In addition to the confidentiality, private tutoring allows the student to learn in her or his own style.  The tutor is there to lead the student along a unique path to academic greatness. Try one of our private tutors today and see results in the classroom and on exams!

Ivy Bound Classes

Do you work better with having a class agenda?  Would you prefer a set time every week for an additional class?  Then try out an Ivy Bound class!  Our classes meet on different schedules, but choosing one that works for you is very simple.  Classes meet with a teacher and complete a full agenda to help you with whatever subject you need.

Our classes are advantageous for three types of students:

1) those who want a lower price for great academic results

2) one who is more comfortable with dynamic group work

3) those who like a “classroom” setting.

Our online classes are conducted formally with strict starting times and break times.  The structure keeps our staff and students consistent. Is your student shy when asking questions in the classroom?  Fear no more!  The online classroom experience allows for questions to be asked anonymously, so there is no pressure if a student is having a difficult time learning a specific topic.  In the online classroom setting, all students have the ability to be active and learn effectively.

Ivy Bound Groups

Can’t make our class times?  Do you learn better with a group dynamic?  Then try out one of our group sessions!  Groups meet every week at a designated time.  Pay a monthly fee to drop in for any of our group meeting times and receive help from an Ivy Bound tutor! Our groups span four consistent dates each month.  Students are able to attend for 90 minutes on each group date.

Can’t make a predetermined group meeting time?  Then start your own group!  Ivy Bound allows students to form their own group and choose what time they would like to meet.  Simply tell us how many students you have, when you would like to meet, and Ivy Bound takes care of the rest.

Let Ivy Bound tutors help assist you in achieving academic success!
