LACA has a good progreession of classes, which span from basic still life and landscape painting to more advanced classes like figure drawing. Pace of classes are tailored, making them suitable for both beginners and advanced levels. What liked alot as well is Moses’ meticulousness and balanced teaching approach. He follows your progress carefully throughout, and although very knowleagable, does not impose his style on you. Apart from the guidance given on the fundamentals and techniques, students are allowed to explore their own style.</p>

As the class size quite big i heard 15 kids do each kid able to get the attention?  When a teacher teach a theme does it mean all kids draw same things or they cn add on their creativity.  For eg if teacher draw butterfly the kids mus exactly draw the same butterfly or they cn draw their own butterfly n add flowers.  Cn they use their creativity?  do nafa organise competition?  Thank u.<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1460745</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1460745</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blue Pearl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 02 Feb 2015 09:58:06 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to NAFA and alternative on Mon, 02 Feb 2015 03:09:38 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">My gal attended NAFA arts classes since she was P2…now she is in P5…She enjoyed alot and learn alot of new techniques like rice paper drawing (chinese drawing), pop arts, foam printing, sketching etc…She is now into advance class leraning acrylic painting.

They only have enrollment once a year that is why you feel that is a long waiting list . Not true .  I enquired at the end of 2010  but miss the enrollment for 2011 , so i put my name with them . somewhere in oct they send u a letter … you just go down to register in dec . Ofcourse its first come first serve so you just have to go down to queue  .  Thats  it</p>

I was in the mailing list last year but did not go down to register.<br /><br />So far just heard good is the NAFA branding but I have not heard of any good reviews from NAFA. The setback is that the class is quite big where usually at 20.</p>

I had the same issue when i wanted to register my son for the art lessons.  Just to register him is such a hassle - waiting list is more than a year.  You call the dept to register.  They put you on the mailing list and you wait.  Priority is given to existing students of NAFA and their siblings.<br /><br /><br />I register my girl for dance lessons and thereafter register my son as a sibling for the art lessons.  Bingo, he got in the following year.</p>
