About Susie
Hello, I’m Susie and I am an art graduate, currently working online and in Cheltenham both as an artist and teacher/tutor.
Since graduating from the Glasgow School of Art in 2010 I have been working as a professional artist; I just received my masters in sculpture from the Royal College of Art in June 2019. Alongside this I am an experienced teacher and a lecturer at university level.

I aim to be a very motivational tutor, trying to be as positive as possible and I try to minimise stress levels by being calm and approachable.
I tailor each lesson to my student's individual needs and have experience working with a wide range of age groups. I am flexible with the times and locations I can work.
I have at PTLLS qualification for teaching in the lifelong learning sector and I also have a CELTA.
I tutor a range of subjects- please see below for more information.
English as a foreign language-
I am a CELTA qualified teacher. I have been teaching since 2010 in language teaching institutions and private tutoring. I have taught in schools and 1-1. I can teach IELTS, PET, CAE, CPE and general English.
Art and Design/Art History-
I also have a number of years of experience teaching art and art history. I taught for a number of years on the foundation art course at St. Andrews College in Cambridge. This involved teaching art and history of art.
I have tutored students in art at pre university and university level. I have helped with UCAS statement, essays, with the preparation of portfolios and interview practice. My interview practice experience includes Oxbridge preparation.
I am an associate lecturer at The University of Gloucestershire. I have also led sessions guest lecturing at the University of Cambridge in the history of art department and the Judge Business School. I have been a visiting lecturer at Goldsmiths University, Anglia Ruskin University, University of Brighton, Camberwell University of the Arts, London, University of Creative Arts, Falmouth University, University of Bedfordshire and Westminster University.
I work on weekends throughout the year as an artist educator at the Fitzwilliam Museum and other university museums on behalf of Cambridge University. I have assisted with workshops at the Royal British Society of Sculptors and led workshops with Access Arts.
I have taught young people and adults of all ages from varied backgrounds and diverse cultures.
I am a professional artist and balance my teaching/lecturing work with running my own studio, creating works for exhibitions in galleries and public and private commissions.
Design Technology/ Product Design
I have also tutored design and technology GCSE and A level to a number of students since 2010. I studied A-level DT myself and AS Level textiles so I have a good idea of what is involved for both the coursework and the exam. I have prepped students for a number of different exam boards.
My own creative work involves a lot of the processes studied on this course- using CAD/CAM such as laser cutting and CNC milling, digital printing and ceramic, metal, wood, glass and plastic fabrication.
Photography/Photoshop/Video Editing
I have experience teaching how to take and to edit photographs. I can show you how to use a range of programs, including the Adobe Suite. I taught Photography A-Level at St Andrews College in Cambridge for a number of years.
Organisational studies
I have tutored organisational studies where I helped students to revise and organise their workload more effectively. This involves helping with timetables, mind-maps, organisation of revision materials and creating other revision tools.
11+
I am trained to and have tutored students in 7+ and 11+. In these subjects I have focused on verbal and non verbal reasoning and English predominately and supported students with maths. I have also led sessions specifically on creative writing and comprehension.
Film Studies and Media Studies
I have tutored film and media studies, helping with the coursework and essay practice for A-level exams. I taught Media Studies Foundation at St Andrews College in Cambridge.
Website Design/Social Media
I can teach you how to design a website using Wix, Squarespace, Weebly or Wordpress. You will gain the skills to be in control of any future updates and design changes. I can also help with social media for creatives.
Please do get in touch if you have any questions.
Recommendations

Susie really helped my daughter to prepare for an assessment and complete assignments. Before having Susie she struggled with the subject but Susie has really helped her. It’s increased her confidence and she actually enjoys doing the work. Susie is organised and very responsive. I would definitely recommend her.
Susie O is a great tutor. She is engaging, fun, with a great way of exploring the difficulties my child had with understanding certain concepts, so that she could best then explain what he needed to know from his point of view. Clear explanations, and Susie was always patient with my child, whilst encouraging him to reach his greatest potential. My child really enjoyed having Susie as his tutor, she has a lovely warm approach, whilst having been adept at keeping my son focused on his work.
Susie has helped me in writing art essays and preparing for university interviews. Her help was essential in order to improve my writing and speaking skills. She is really prepared in art history and critical studies.
Susie has been my homeschool tutor now since the end of September.
Susie has made it easier as expected to study three A-Levels in one year instead of two, and I honestly cannot thank her enough for helping me throughout my homeschool journey. As well as Susie being passionate for Photography, she is also invested in the students wellbeing. Other than teaching me photography A-Level, she tutors me in Film Studies and Media Studies too. I would recommend Susie as a tutor to anyone, as she is very easy to get along with and focuses on the needs of the student to develop their skills in specific areas of the subjects studying.
For Photography, Susie has helped me to develop my knowledge for the subject, as I was a beginner when I started. I now have a wider understanding of how to develop my work in photography and technical terms to use.Susie helped me to get prepared to sit for CPE - certificate of proficient English from the Cambridge University. She has always been kind, attentive to my needs and well prepared. I highly recommend her for any language-related works. She is also a great sculpture artist.
Susie O has worked at Select English language school on a part-time basis since 22/11/2010. She has taught general English and IELTS preparation classes to multinational teenagers and young adults. She has always been very reliable and professional and I would not hesitate to recommend her. Kate (Director of Studies - Select English Cambridge)
