About your tutorMeredith Malin Meredith is an experienced early childhood educator, who previously worked across Sydney and The Blue Mountains. She also teachers adult ‘intuitive’ painting classes, to foster and unblock creativity and encourage a range of expression and movement through connection, paint and texture. ‘I have a strong understanding of how fostering creativity and imagination from a young age can have a positive impact on a child’s overall learning, self-esteem and confidence. I believe that by giving children opportunities to learn about a variety of artistic materials, techniques and tools we give them greater opportunities for self-expression, a way to understand the world around them and to feel a meaningful connection to the natural world’. |
