Calm, structured art lessons taught by a UK-qualified art teacher – so you don’t have to plan or second-guess art at home.
Is your child creative, but you’re unsure how to support their art learning confidently at home?
I’m Jo, a PGCE-qualified UK art teacher, and I run Arts Instruct – an online art programme created specifically for home-educated students aged 11–14. Having a deep understanding of how overwhelm, perfectionism, and procrastination can affect learning, I’m careful to design art lessons that feel achievable rather than intimidating. My approach supports children to work at their own pace, build confidence gradually and enjoy the creative process without pressure.
My lessons are designed to:
Build real art skills (not just crafts)
Support confidence, even for children who say, “I can’t draw”
Fit easily into home education without stress or pressure
Why Home Ed families choose Arts Instruct
✔️ Clear structure without school-style pressure
✔️ Lessons based on the elements of art and KS3 skills
✔️ Short, guided videos your child can pause and replay
✔️ Low-cost, accessible materials
✔️ Taught by a qualified teacher who understands progression to GCSE
Parents often tell me they feel reassured knowing:
“I no longer worry if I’m teaching art properly.”
How it works
Each month, your child follows a themed art project supported by:
Step-by-step video guidance
Printable support sheets and reflection prompts
Optional personalised feedback from me
Children work independently, at their own pace, while still developing core artistic skills.

Hi, I’m Jo - a PGCE-qualified UK art teacher and the creator of Arts Instruct.
I work with home-educated children aged 11–14, helping them build confidence in art and develop real skills, without pressure, perfection or feeling like they’re “doing it wrong”.
Over the years, I’ve seen the same thing again and again: children who enjoy art but get stuck, frustrated, or lose confidence simply because they don’t know where to start - and parents who want to support them, but don’t want to turn art into a stressful subject.
That’s exactly why I created Arts Instruct.
My lessons guide students step by step, breaking skills down in a clear, encouraging way so they can work independently, feel successful, and actually enjoy the process of creating. We focus on drawing, painting and visual art skills that genuinely help them progress, not quick crafts or rushed outcomes.
As a parent myself, I understand how important it is for learning to be structured but flexible, easy to fit into home education, and realistic in terms of time, space and materials.
My aim is simple: to make art feel doable, enjoyable and worthwhile for your child - and to reassure you that they’re learning properly, even if art isn’t your subject.
