I'm Prerna Thani
I have a Master's degree in Business and a diploma in Fine Art. My passion in the art of painting from childhood caused that I learn designing, painting and the technique of oil paint in adolescence. I have started charcoal technique (How to work with black pencil) seriously and professionally from 2015 and it caused that I get a little experience about colored pencil and colored ballpoint pen technique. My favorite styles are Realism and Hyper realism and I've created my artworks with charcoal by paying attention to these two styles. The result of the artistic activity of the past few years, is the participation in several group and individual exhibitions in 2016.
These experiences have given me a strong understanding of effective course planning, evaluation of student outcomes and assessments, development of effective units of inquiry, and teaching a wide range of age levels and abilities. Creativity is an essential skill in a world where innovation is increasingly putting companies at a competitive advantage. I find it a privilege and pleasure to work creatively with the next generation.
