The English Plus Art and Design course is ideal for students who want to improve their English whilst practicing their art and design skills.It allows you to prepare a portfolio of artwork for future study or work purposes. It combines general English with specialist art and design related disciplines.Course structure = 20 lessons (15 hours) of general English + 8 lessons (6 hours) Art and Design per week The art and design lesson content is determined by the student, and is structured around their experience and personal interests. This allows a broad range of students to gain a different, personally tailored experience in art and design. Each student fills in a questionnaire on arrival and has a tutorial with their art teacher in their first lesson where they discuss their art background and previous experience as well as their learning goals.Students can attend with different levels of experience in art and design, from degree level, or pre-masters students to complete beginners, and can attend for different amounts of time. Those who are planning further study in art and design can get portfolio advice and expert guidance on how to prepare effectively for art courses or job applications. Students will get an understanding of how art and design is taught in the UK through project work to develop creative thinking. At Kings London, a fully-equipped art studio is available for English Plus Art and Design students to use. The studios provide a great space to meet other students after class to share and develop artistic ideas, and to learn new skills. You may also work on projects in your spare time here.
