8 B&W Illustrations in ink and watercolour for ‘The Class Tutor: The why, the what, the how’—written by Luke Monahan.
Above: The old style of teachingAbove: Dealing with ‘difficult’ studentsAbove: ‘Supporting the Tutor’. Many teachers feel cast adrift at the start of the new school year.Above: ‘What are students saying?’ The tables are turnedAbove: ‘Teaching a programme’. One of the challenges is how to approach Sex EducationAbove: ‘Parents as Partners’. Each side can have preconceived ideas about the other and be apprehensive about talkingAbove: ‘So you want to talk.’ Being available for parents.Above: Tutors, what do they do?Above: Different styles of schooling. This reminds me of Sir Ken Robinson speaking about how most education systems are based on Industrial revolution notions of how factories work—and how ineffective they are in their one-size-fits-all approach
Case Study
An enjoyable book to illustrate, which was heavily loaded with theory, data, statistics and diagrams. It was very much in the same style as most of my newspaper illustrations, having a realistic though often humorous approach. The artwork was rendered on paper, in pencil, ink, black watercolour and occasionally a bit of studio marker. For budgetary reasons, all illustrations were in black and white only.
The author, Luke Monahan, inscribed my copy with:
“John, your contribution greatly enhanced this publication.”
