How We Monitor Your Progress
Assessments aren’t about marks – they show where you stand and where you’re headed. We employ multiple methods to visualize your growth and pinpoint areas for targeted practice.
Portfolio Reviews
Every month, we sit down together and review your recent work. These conversations help identify patterns in your development and highlight breakthroughs you might have missed.
Practical Skill Assessments
Short, focused drills that let you demonstrate specific techniques. Think of them as friendly challenges – can you create smooth gradations? Draw a cube in perspective? These help us both see your technical progress.
Peer Review Sessions
Sometimes other students notice details instructors miss. These structured group discussions teach you to analyze artwork constructively while gaining fresh perspectives on your own work.
Reflective Practice Projects
You'll document your artistic journey through written reflections and comparison studies. This metacognitive approach helps you become aware of your own learning process and artistic choices.
