These Portfolio Advisory sessions will be delivered in small groups, where students can obtain on-the-spot feedback on their works!

Each advisory session lasts about an hour. Our Education Consultant may try to put like-minded students into the same group, so that they can learn from each others:

• Session 01: 10am – 11am
• Session 02: 11am – 12pm
• Session 03: 4:30pm – 5:30pm
