Private Drawing Lessons

My name is Kate Vogler and I am a sophomore art and design major at the Catholic University of America (in D.C.). I am looking for private drawing lessons this summer. I would like to focus primarily on figure and animal drawing(s), as I am very much interested in (video game and cartoon) character design. If you think you'd be able to help me with this, please let me know! I would like to focus on the fundamentals (where to actually begin), as well as proportions and shading.
