FAQ

  • How do I contact the Instructor?
    Please email all questions and concerns to: jessica.artistcorner@gamil.com Jessica's business hours are: Tuesday - Thursday, 9am-5:30p
  • What if I have multiple children at different ages – what class do I choose?
    We recommend following our age guidelines to provide the best learning environment for your child - this may mean selecting different classes based on each child’s skill level and needs. However, if you prefer all your children to attend the same class, we suggest choosing the level appropriate for the youngest child. Older children can easily engage with lessons designed for younger ages, while younger children may struggle to keep up with more advanced material.
  • How long are the classes?
    JustDraw-Kindi – 25 minutes Designed for 4–5-year-olds, this class is tailored to match their typical attention span and cognitive learning needs, making art fun, engaging, and developmentally appropriate. Art Foundations 1 & JustDraw 101 – 45 minutes These classes are crafted for younger learners with slightly longer attention spans, providing a solid introduction to foundational art skills in a focused yet playful format. Art Foundations 2 & 3 – 50 minutes For older or more advanced students, these classes build progressively on previous skills, offering longer, more in-depth lessons suited to their growing focus and artistic development. *All classes include a 5-minute window at the beginning for students to log in and get settled.
  • What are the teachers qualifications and experience as an art instructor and do they have any specific training in teaching children?
    Jessica is a seasoned art instructor with 17+ years of teaching experience and over 25+ years as a professional artist. Since beginning her teaching career in 2007—and expanding in 2018 to work with special education students—she has shared her passion for art education, inspiring learners of all abilities to grow their creativity and skills.

  • When do classes meet?
    Each class is scheduled on a specific day of the week and offers two different class times for you to choose from when signing up. Art Foundations 1 - Tuesday (10a / 4:30pm MST) Art Foundations 2- Wednesday (10a / 4:30pm MST) Art Foundations 3 - Thursday (10a / 4:30pm MST)
  • How long do the subscriptions run?
    All regular subscriptions run year-round, following the traditional school calendar, and are divided into two semesters. Classes begin the first week of September and conclude the week of May 22nd. Each subscription also includes automatic enrollment in two summer workshops (6–8 lessons). *Regular subscriptions roll over with the child as they advance. Some limited subscriptions, however, may run for a single semester or a set period of time before concluding.
  • Can the class be repeated?
    Yes, each class level is designed to be completed over a two-year period before some lessons begin to repeat.
  • What if my child misses a class?
    If your child misses a class, don’t worry! Just send a quick email to Jessica and a recording of the class will be sent so they can catch up on everything they missed.
  • Can I join at any point in the year?
    Yes! Our Art Classes are open for enrollment year-round, with key skills reviewed throughout the year. However, starting later may mean your child has less exposure and practice with earlier foundational skills, which are designed to build progressively for the best results. *Billing is done on a monthly basis, so there will be no change in fees regardless of when you join.
  • Can my child take private lessons?
    Yes, we do offer private lessons - for more information please email Jessica at: jessica.artistcorner@gamil.com
  • What if my child needs to switch into a different class?
    All subscriptions allow for class changes without affecting your current plan. Switching classes usually occur for one of two reasons: Your child has completed two years at their current class level and is ready to advance. Your child finds their current class too challenging or not challenging enough, in which case we recommend considering a switch to a more suitable level. Students can move up or down when they’re ready—not just based on age, but also on artistic readiness and confidence. To request a class change, you can: Email Jessica with your thoughts, concerns, or request for a Zoom meeting. Request to speak with Jessica briefly after class via Zoom to set up a meeting. We’re happy to work with you to ensure your child is in the class that best supports their growth and enjoyment of art!
  • Are there any opportunities for students to showcase their artwork?
    Yes, I love celebrating our young artists! Please email your student's finished artwork and a photo of your child working on their art to jessica.artistcorner@gmail.com.
  • How are classes paid for?
    Automatic billing - ($51) per class, per month - begins at registration and will continue until your subscription is canceled or your child graduates out.
  • *Are materials provided, or do we need to purchase them separately?
    No, materials are not provided, but a list of required course materials is available on our Supply List page. All supplies listed have been chosen for cost effectiveness while maintaining student quality.
  • How do I choose the right class level for my child?
    All three levels are designed to progress in alignment with developmental stages, learning patterns, and the cognitive needs of each age group Students can start where they are comfortable based not only on age but also on artistic readiness and confidence. Each level then builds on the previous one, allowing children to grow their skills at a pace that fits their needs.
