Drawing basics study guide: one skill like perspective or shading, explained step by step, with practice

Example result

Example for the Standard package

Study guide: solving linear equations, for students aged 13–14

The one rule

An equation is a balance. Whatever you do to one side, you do to the other, and the balance stays level. The goal is to get x alone on one side.

Worked example 3: the unknown on both sides

Solve 5x − 4 = 2x + 11.

  1. Move the x terms to one side: take 2x from both sides. 5x − 2x − 4 = 11, so 3x − 4 = 11.
  2. Move the numbers to the other side: add 4 to both sides. 3x = 15.
  3. Divide both sides by 3. x = 5.
  4. Check: 5 × 5 − 4 = 21 and 2 × 5 + 11 = 21. Both sides match.

Common mistake

In 3(x + 2) = 18, many students write 3x + 2 = 18. The 3 multiplies everything in the brackets: 3x + 6 = 18, so x = 4.

Exercises 7–10

  1. 4x + 3 = x + 18
  2. 2(x − 5) = 14
  3. 7 − x = 3x − 9
  4. 3(2x + 1) = 4x + 15

Answers: 7. x = 5 · 8. x = 12 · 9. x = 4 · 10. x = 6

Files: PDF and Word. The guide is for learning: we do not do homework or tests to be handed in.

Client: a parent whose daughter gets lost when an equation has brackets or the unknown on both sides. Task: a guide at middle school level that starts from the basics and builds up to those two cases. Standard package: up to 8 pages, 6 worked examples, 20 exercises with answers and a summary sheet. Excerpt below.

The client and all details are made up.

About this service

Drawing improves faster when you know what to look for. This guide takes one skill at your level, such as proportions, one- and two-point perspective, light and shadow, simple shapes in a still life or the basic proportions of a face and figure, and explains the rules in plain words. Worked examples describe a drawing step by step, from the first construction lines to the shading, and the exercises are drawing tasks with answers: what a correct result should show and the usual mistakes to check for. Tell us the skill, the learner's age and level and the materials they use. You get PDF and Word files; Premium adds a theory test and an answer key. The guide is text with step-by-step descriptions, with no drawings or video. We don't draw for the learner, review their work or do assignments to be handed in.

What is included

  • What you getA PDF and Word guide on one drawing skill: the rules in plain words, step-by-step walkthroughs of a drawing, practice tasks with what the result should show, common mistakes and a self-check list.

What we need from you

The skill to learn (for example, a cube and a cylinder in perspective, hatching, the proportions of a portrait or cast shadows), the learner's age and level, the materials they use (pencil, charcoal, ink), what goes wrong in their drawings now, whether they prepare for an art school entrance or draw for pleasure, the language and how the guide will be used. You may attach a syllabus or a task list as Word or PDF files, up to 3. We don't review or redraw the learner's drawings.

We will ask you:

  • Which skill?
  • Learner's age and level
  • Materials
  • What goes wrong now?

Questions and answers

Are there pictures in the guide?

No. It is text that describes each step in order, with simple tables and checklists. Use it alongside your sketchbook; drawings and video are not included.

Will you check my drawings?

No. The guide gives you points to check your own result against; we don't review, grade or correct drawings.

Is it suitable for a child?

Yes. Give the age in the brief; for younger learners we use short steps and simple everyday objects.

Can you do my art school assignment?

No. The guide is for learning a skill; we don't do assignments to be handed in as the learner's own work.
