I did my Art Teacher’s Training course with Ms Sampat at The Art Studio Mumbai. I found the training to be very comprehensive. We learnt how to make lesson plans, curriculum planning and also how to execute the lessons with kids. Right from learning Art History of ancient times to the Art in modern times and contemporary art, we covered all of it, and also how to teach it to the class. The course has taught us to think beyond just drawing and painting to create art that uses pure imagination. We learnt about how children develop in the arts, how to organise museum visits, and field trips and also integrate art with various other subjects. The studio lessons were a lot of fun – we did the drawing, painting, collage, 3D art, fabric and fibre, puppets and masks.

I have thoroughly enjoyed every class immensely. Thank you Ms Sampat for providing such a unique and memorable experience.
