Getting creatives talking. Creatively.

About the Pedagogy
Daily Challenges
The creative exercises are of intellectual, linguistic and creative interest to art school graduates (or career equivalent). They are designed by an art school lecturer – for an art school graduate skill set and level.
The daily challenges span a variety of media, styles, techniques & skill sets.
How you respond to the challenges dictates the language you will learn.
Through completing these creative challenges, you discover and collates your own, personal collection of vocabulary, sentences and English skills.
These English skills are the very ones that YOU need to describe all aspects of YOUR art/design work in professional contexts in the future.
Our structure leads you to find the words you need, but it’s so much more than vocabulary exercises.
