My name is Azade Afaghi. I am a dedicated Graphic Design Instructor, Art Instructor, and Photography Specialist with over five years of experience, blending my passion for art with a strong background in design, advertising, and customer service. Holding a photography certification and a master's degree in modern art, I bring a unique blend of academic knowledge and practical expertise to my roles.

Currently, I contribute my skills and enthusiasm to three esteemed institutions: Start Academy, Bravo Academy, and Hive5 Steam Art. As an instructor at these institutions, I am deeply committed to inspiring and empowering students to unleash their creativity and effectively express their ideas. In my classes, I strive to create an engaging and dynamic learning environment, fostering a collaborative spirit that encourages innovation and artistic exploration.

Beyond the classroom, I actively share my love for art and design on Instagram, where I showcase my own artworks. With a large and engaged following, I use this platform not only as a means of personal expression but also as an opportunity to connect with a broader community of artists, designers, and art enthusiasts.

My approach to teaching goes beyond imparting technical skills; I emphasize the importance of critical thinking, problem-solving, and effective communication in the world of art and design. I believe in nurturing a holistic understanding of the creative process, encouraging students to explore their unique voices while mastering the tools and techniques of the trade
