Yiki

Teacher Yiki holds a degree in Environmental Design and is currently pursuing her Master of Design at the University of Auckland. With a solid foundation in fine arts and extensive creative practice, she specializes in teaching children’s creative drawing, sketching, colored pencil, and mixed media art.

In her classroom, Yiki focuses on a heuristic teaching approach. She gently guides children to observe daily life, express their unique ideas, and encourages them to develop their creativity, aesthetic appreciation, and independent thinking skills through the joy of painting.

She is especially gifted at recognizing each child’s individuality, helping them discover their own artistic voice and feel proud of their progress.

“Art is more than technique — it’s a journey of self-expression and confidence.
My goal is to help every child find joy, meaning, and their own story through art.”
