Fine Arts Tutor, OCAD University student teaching drawing and painting to all levels.

I have worked in school with Paola for many years and can confidently say she is very patient, understanding and clear with her teaching. She puts a lot of time and effort into ensuring her students succeed.

Paola is such a great teacher with just about anything. She is so patient with learners and ensures that they feel comfortable and safe in lessons. There is no judgement in these lessons at all. Mistakes are made light of by reassurance as well as funny remarks which both learner and teacher can laugh about and work to master.

Paola is so passionate about what she loves and her extensive knowledge and willingness to teach has helped open my eyes to so many different aspects of our society. She is truthfully the perfect friend and mentor to just about anyone who is willing to learn. I promise you that you will not regret choosing her as your teacher.

Paola has been doing visual arts since she was a toddler. She has done everything from calligraphy for greeting cards, to portraits, landscapes, murals and many other types of art.

She has experience dealing with children, babysitting, teaching arts and sign language.

She would be a good teacher because she has a great love of art and has the patience and temperament to explain it to others.

I’ve known Paola for a little over a year now, and just from that time, I have learned so much about her and from her. Paola not only know different facts about many things, including art of course, but she also know so many helpful tips and tricks as well that she can use to help teach students. Paola is very much a family person as she has 3 younger siblings she helps take care of and because of this, she’s very good with other kids and students that I know she’ll be great at tutoring. Paola is very understanding and easy to talk to so I just know she’ll be great at tutoring. Not only is Paola great at art, and different kinds of it, but she also wants to become an art teacher eventually so this will be a great experience for her as her first job. Honestly, I have learned so much more from Paola about many different things from art to history, to science and it has helped me more than school, I probably learn more from her than school too. She is very patient and kind as well so I know she’d be a great fit for this job. - Tevanah

Paola is a great tutor and is very knowledgeable when it comes to fine arts. She is understanding, patient and has excellent communication skills. Furthermore, she was very reasonable with regard to her fees and time.

Paola is amazing! I have known her for a year as an art student. She is responsible, reliable, hardworking, and mature under pressure. She has navigated her personal art and education extremely well during this pandemic, working independently in the art studio at school and at home. Paola has an excellent range of knowledge and skills to share with others that covers both traditional drawing and painting and new media such as illustration and digital art.
