Images are never just decoration. They carry meaning, emotion and perspective—and can open new ways into learning.

Written by a professional photographer retraining as a language teacher, Teaching with Images connects visual creativity with practical classroom work.

This handbook offers clear, adaptable lesson ideas for using images, visual thinking and AI-supported tools while keeping pedagogy and professional judgement at the centre.

Explore ways to:

• Teach grammar, vocabulary and sentence structure through images.
• Use visual material to inspire speaking, writing and discussion.
• Develop students’ texts through visual storytelling and revision.
• Approach prompt writing as descriptive and creative language work.
• Scaffold activities so learners at different levels can participate.
• Build critical thinking by comparing and justifying interpretations.

When students illustrate their own writing, language becomes visible. They notice details, reconsider word choices and discuss why an image fits—or challenges—their intended meaning.

The book also introduces useful AI tools and explores how a co-pilot can support lesson planning, suggest variations and turn learning objectives into activities. The teacher remains in control.

For teachers, teacher trainees and educators working with children and teenagers, especially in languages and humanities.

Practical ideas, gentle guidance and room to adapt—one lesson at a time.

Practical lesson ideas using images, visual storytelling and AI tools to support language learning, critical thinking and student voice.

Teaching with images- e-book

Your imagination is the starting point. Learn how to give it visual direction.

Prompting Like a Visual Artist explores how to translate creative ideas into AI image prompts using the principles of visual storytelling. Discover how light, composition, colour, texture and mood work together to shape an image—and how to describe them with intention.

Drawing on my experience as a professional photographer, this book brings an image-maker’s perspective to prompting. It encourages you to look closely, make deliberate creative choices and develop your own visual language.

Explore how to:
• Turn a vague idea into a clear visual concept.
• Use lighting and composition to guide the viewer’s attention.
• Shape atmosphere through colour, texture and detail.
• Refine your prompts by evaluating what the image needs.
• Build a more personal and consistent visual expression.

For photographers, artists, designers and curious creatives who want greater control over their AI imagery, this is an invitation to slow down, experiment and create with purpose.

Start with an idea. Develop it with an artist’s eye.
