Art and Design tutoring FAQs

Why study Art and Design?

Art and design is a university course of study that includes the study of visual arts, design, and sometimes theatre, music, film, and dance. Art and design degrees encourage students to think creatively and responsibly. It allows them to experiment with new ideas in a supportive environment. Through studio work, they develop their conceptual thinking into complete projects.

The best reason to study art and design is that it helps unleash your creative prowess. Learning what you are passionate about is one of the most important things anyone can do. Whether you decide to become an artist, designer, or something else, it is important that you pursue your passion.

What university degree are Art and Design useful for?

If you have a Bachelor’s degree in Art and Design and want to continue your education, you can go to graduate school to earn a master’s degree in Fine Arts. Some students choose to pursue a PhD which takes the longest but prepares them for a teaching position at the university.

Many bachelor’s graduates choose to pursue a master’s degree in art and design, Interior Design, Graphic Design, Innovation Design Management, art and culture. Art and design is also useful for getting into fields that have nothing to do with art or design. For example, if you studied fine arts, animation or communication design, your work portfolio will make you stand out from other applicants when trying to find work in areas such as public relations, marketing, advertising and sales.

What careers can studying Art and Design lead to?

A degree in art and design offers many career options for graduates, including teaching, art practice, graphic design, animation, advertising design, publishing and marketing, and retail in galleries and museums. There are many different careers in the world of art and design. A bachelor’s degree in this field can lead to a career as:

  • Fine artist
  • Art teacher
  • Animator
  • Fashion Designer
  • Playwright or puppeteer
  • Industrial Designer
  • Interior Designer
  • Art Director
  • User Experience (UX) Designer
  • Graphic Designer
  • Multimedia Artist
  • Public relations officer

Marketing and Advertising expert.

How does Art and Design help with a career in marketing?

Not every art and design graduate has to be an artist or designer; you can also pursue a career in marketing and advertising. Art and design graduates have a strong sense of design, colour theory, and visual communication. This gives them an edge when it comes to communicating ideas to different audiences using words, images, or sounds.

Studying art and design will give you a solid foundation in communication. Remember, it is a study of visual art, design, and sometimes theatre, music, film, and dance. These are all forms of communication!

How expert Art and Design tutoring can help you

Teachers will take the time to assess your starting point and then develop a personalised syllabus to work towards your objectives. Online classes will focus on your areas of weakness and on developing the confidence you need to achieve your goals. Lessons will also push students in areas they are already comfortable in, encouraging constant improvement and developing positive learning habits.

Why Choose Spires’ Tutoring?

We only hire 4% of the teachers that apply to Spires, and they are all professional and experienced school and university-level educators. Many have qualifications from top universities and institutions in the UK, USA, and around the world. All have a Ph.D., MSc, Ma, BSc, or Ba in their chosen field.

We have a lot of repeat students, and you can check out the high star ratings our clients leave.

Because tutors set their rates via an auction system, our prices are more competitive than many other companies. Our online classroom is stable and fun to learn through. It has an interactive whiteboard, and students can access recordings of classes at any time. They use webcam video chat when being taught.

Spires deals with all of the matching, scheduling, payments, and administration. We take all of the hassles out of organising support and allow students to focus purely on learning.

How Spires’ online art and design tutors work?

You can find a professional tutor in four easy steps:

  1. Use the Find A Tutor feature to create a post outlining your needs and requirements. You can choose from subject, level, price, and expertise.
  2. Find your perfect tutor from our wide variety of skilled professors and educators. After you filter your search results using the Find A Tutor feature, you can choose to “view profile” of the best choices for your needs.
  3. Have your face-to-face class. This can be done whenever and wherever you are; it’s all online—neither you nor the tutor travels!
  4. Replay the classes afterwards for any missed information at your own pace and convenience.

Private help is that easy!

Does it matter if the art tutor is near me?

No, it doesn’t! It’s all done online whenever and wherever you are. All you have to do is pick your ideal mentor and speak to them to arrange the best time for you to have video lessons. It doesn’t matter at all if they are miles and miles (or kilometre and kilometre) away from you!

Who will my tutor be?

This is all up to you. You have a huge choice. You can look through our member tutor profiles, check student reviews and bids, their qualifications and backgrounds, hourly rates, hours taught, and other subjects they teach – and even check out if they have many repeat students.

Then, communicate with your favourites to see if they are right for your needs and learning style. You can have a free video call by webcam, usually over Zoom. Then you pick the person you’d like to help with your studies and schedule your first webcam lesson!

How many art & design tutors are available to give private lessons?

We currently have over 12 Art and Design Tutors with academic and professional experience specialising in a wide range of topics from GCSEs to postgraduate support, and everything in between.

What qualifications do tutors need?

All of our tutors must hold at least a Bachelor’s degree and have tutoring experience. Most have higher degrees on top of that, in specialized areas such as Master’s degrees or PhDs. All of our tutors are DBS checked or have had equivalent background checks.

What is the role of a tutor?

It is their responsibility to guide you to understand the subject you have chosen. Using their expertise in the chosen topic and their teaching experience, they will help you to understand, analyze, and use the content of the lessons to apply at a later date, whether it is at your chosen university, in your career, or in your day-to-day life.

How much does a private Art and Design tutor cost per hour?

Tuition is priced according to level:

  1. School level: For Primary school, Secondary and Higher Education, prices start at £25/hr
  2. University level: For Undergraduate and Postgraduate tuition, prices start at £35/hr
  3. Professional level: For Chartered Qualifications and Admissions Test tutoring, prices start at £45/hr.

The average price per hour ranges based on the tutors’ experience, expertise, and student level.

How much is an Art and Design tutor per hour in London?

The average tutor price per hour is £40/$53/€45 depending on a teacher’s experience and the student’s level of study. This is higher than in other areas in the UK due to the increased living costs that come with London life.
