Information about TeachinArt, the online school of art

TeachinArt.com is an Online School of Art, founded by Koos and Antoinette Badenhorst to expand opportunities for artists to learn from experienced and successful art and craft instructors online. Antoinette started with porcelain, but the need for basic pottery instruction took her back to her early days of working with earthenware and stoneware clay. The workshops long since expanded beyond the instruction of Antoinette.
Antoinette takes her hands-on workshops and ceramic studies to the internet where pottery students from across the world can learn pottery and porcelain techniques through online classes. She shares her in-depth knowledge of porcelain, stoneware and earthenware clay bodies with potters who will learn from her as if they are attending one of her workshops in person. As a passionate pottery instructor Antoinette holds no information back, but share all she knows.

Get a front row seat while she demonstrates her pottery techniques on videos and teaches potters and hobbyists how to master porcelain and other clay mediums. During the class period, ceramic art students have direct in-person access to Antoinette. She answers all questions in a virtual or simulated workshop environment.

The benefits for online learning are amazing for students and instructors. Students who cannot afford to attend the in-person workshops can typically afford the online classes. The classes are available to anyone that has internet access through any technological device, including to an international audience.

These online videos show clear details of each process, often from multiple positions. Unlike a hands- on workshop where many distractions may water a class down, or where there is not enough time to discuss more details, these classes can be done without disturbances at the pace the student wants to follow, at a time they wish to do the class, without loosing any details.  

While the class is running, students have unlimited opportunity to review videos. They receive PDF documents with questions and answers of all student questions as well as reviews and any other material that will make these pottery classes a great experience.
