TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I began my career in a Pre-K classroom and was offered my dream job as an elementary Art Teacher. I am in my second year of teaching Art and it is a challenge I love every day.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I never have been good at answering this question. Even in interviews, I have trouble articulating how exactly I teach a lesson. I guess I present my lessons, general concepts, elements and principles involved and then let the creativity flow. I offer lots of examples and let the students make as many of the creative choices as possible.
