All Ages Creative Academy

Clear, structured learning for business, creativity and tech. 

 

For capable business owners who want digital tools and processes to work faster and feel easier. 

And for parents of kids (6-12), the smart way to turn their screen time into real tech skills.

 

Step-by-step courses, practical resources and 1-1 support.

 Tech Confidence Starts Here 

Everything at All Ages Creative Academy, including 1:1 sessions, is designed to help you become self-sufficient and confident.

Canva is a convenient and relevant tool  because it's so widely used - worldwide - by all ages and across homes, businesses and schools. I teach using Canva Free, and it's perfectly capable. You do not need the paid subscription.

For Business

I help business owners by simplifying tech tools and processes - how digital tools work and how they connect.

From simple design tasks to complete workflows – like creating and delivering a lead magnet, which has way more moving pieces than you'd think! – I break things down into logical steps so it makes sense and is easy to action.

For Kids 6-12

Screen time can be beneficial!

Kids are adept at guessing how tech works, but guessing is not skill-building. Kids Get Creative With Canva is a fun way to build real tech skills that will benefit your kids way beyond Canva.

With short lessons that easily fit into your busy lives, all with child-friendly content.

Kids Get Creative With Canva

Positive screen time for 6–12 year olds.

Many kids already use Canva at school and at home. They move fast, get results, and look confident.

That works for now, but it’s not the same as understanding the tools.

So when kids say, “I don’t need a Canva course – I already use it,” they’re being honest. They just haven’t had the chance to learn Canva properly yet.

This course gives them that chance — in a way that still feels creative and enjoyable.

 

Why parents choose this course:

  • Short, guided lessons kids can follow independently
  • Focus on real digital skills, not just making things look good
  • Works well as structured school-holiday screen time
  • Creative, practical, and genuinely enjoyable for kids
  • We use Canva's free subscription

That works for now, but it’s not the same as understanding the tools, or developing skills that will actually give them a head start in their education.

So when kids say, “I don’t need a Canva course – I already use it,” they’re being honest. They just don't understand the difference or benefit of learning how to use it properly, yet.

This course gives them that chance — in a way that still feels creative and enjoyable.

Workplace Training

Canva is often described as “easy” — until it becomes part of everyday work.

There’s a learning curve before Canva is used efficiently and consistently.

When teams understand what to use and what to ignore, everything runs more smoothly.

 This is not generic Canva training — it’s designed

  • for your business
  • with your content, and
  • around how your team actually works. 

 

Workplace training can include:

  • Custom sessions for your team
  • Development of standard workflows
  • Practical guidance using your branding and real projects
  • In-person (Sydney) or online sessions
  • Flexible formats to suit your team and schedule 

 

For teams that need something more tailored, I also offer:

  • Custom online courses, built specifically for your organisation
    • Hosted on my course platform
    • Accessible only to your staff
    • Easy for teams to revisit and for new staff to onboard
  • Branded Canva templates, designed for your business and ready for your team to use

 

Use your branding properly, create content faster, and get consistent results in Canva.

Learn From a Designer Who Loves Teaching

Hi, I’m Sarah! With 20+ years in design and over a decade of teaching, I make learning technology fun and practical for all ages.

In over 10 years teaching in the classroom, I listened to my students, and using their feedback as a guide, I've developed a signature approach to teaching.

The 'secret ingredient' is obvious when you experience it, and yet most courses miss it. Explaining it simply, I help you understand why you’re doing the things, not just how to do them.

 I know from my students that this really helps when learning, so you can:

  • Build confidence

  • Save time

  • Learn skills you’ll actually use.

Canva is used by over 240 million people worldwide for everything from hobbies, to school projects, to business marketing and presentations, digital product creation, book designs - the possibilities are endless.

The simple fact that it's 'everywhere' makes Canva an incredibly valuable tool to know, and I’ll help you unlock its full potential.
