Testimonial – St Charles 6th Form College

Our department has been a grade one for the past eight years, we strive for excellence and Paula contributes a valuable service to our teams’ work on the students’ portfolios. Over the past three years Paula has carried out portfolio workshops to Staff and Students with a view to prepare these students for interview onto a pre degree Foundation Course, or to present the submission of a more specialist portfolio for a degree course. Continue reading

100% success rate. All students have secured a place at their first choice foundation course this year. We have students going to St Martins, LCC and Falmouth. Their portfolios were definitely so much stronger with your input and they were confident about their work. Thank you so much.

Testimonial – Bespoke Tailoring

The straight and honest advice I received was great, it was easy to see that she knows exactly what she is looking for, and worked quickly and efficiently to help me organize all the work I had. In addition to this, Paula set me several tasks/projects to help fill some gaps in my portfolio. All of which once completed I was very happy with. From arriving with just a pile of work, I left with far more confidence than I had and the beginnings of a Portfolio I was very happy with. I have since been to two interviews, both of which I got places for. And after completing the work she set I now have a portfolio I am extremely happy with.

Paula has helped me with ideas in current projects in school, as well as with my portfolio. She was encouraging and helped me to create a portfolio I am very proud of, which has resulted in me getting a place to study my first choice art foundation course at LCC. I would hugely recommend Paula’s help and guidance for any student looking for portfolio help”.

It was very easy to talk to her about your work and I feel that without having my portfolio improved by Paula that I wouldn’t have received my place to study a foundation at Camberwell.

Testimonial – New York

From my position, in France as a foreign exchange student from the US, it was difficult and overwhelming to get all of my materials together to send to schools. I had a lot of work to do; drawings, paintings, full projects, and a month to do it all! Paula wasn’t flustered by the amount of work I had to do, but worked with me calmly and efficiently over the computer whilst I was still in France and in person when I came to London.

Testimonial – Chelsea College of Art

Thorough and honest in her appraisal of my work, I followed her instructions to the letter and everyone who saw the finished portfolio thought it was stunning. She even advised me on my personal statement. I’m pleased to be able to say that after all of Paula’s input I got offered a place at Chelsea College of Art and Design.

Paula evaluated and very swiftly mapped out and explained exactly what work she needed to do to meet the college’s requirements, a huge amount of ideas and suggestions were offered to for my daughter to explore and develop. She adored the sessions and always came away excited and eager to start work on her set tasks. Paula used her vast experience to help her put the final touches on her portfolio and the results were spectacular.
