Painting is one of my top subjects! Over the years I have created works of art using nearly every type of paint and painting technique available. My two favorite ways to paint are with watercolors and digitaly through the use of computer programs like adobe photoshop.

As an art teacher, I want my students to learn to enjoy the creative process and develop an appreciation art, even if it is not something they readily excel at or are considering for a future career path. Through exploration of the many different forms of art, such as drawing, painting, three-dimensional design, and even computer-aided illustration, it is my goal to help my students break free from the stereotypical notion that art is all about making the most realistic image possible or that there is one right way to create. Too often one’s creativity is stifled due to fear or criticisms, or that their idea will not be good enough. It is my hope that though a combination of traditional foundation art skills, like learning how to correctly view an object in space and modern teaching techniques, that my students will learn to overcome this fear, and become expressive individuals who think ... read more

My comments on tutoring Painting : I worked for 3 years painting custom design and replications of needlepoint templates for a boutique on Newbury Street in Boston. I also have been building my portfolio of nature prints and paintings to show and sell. I am comfortable teaching all mediums including mixed media.

I go as fast or as slow as the student needs. I encourage students to try new techniques and ideas so they are self-aware of the process and learning experience that leads to self-improvement and development.
During the school year, I work as a curriculum coordinator and art teacher for an after school program in Lexington, Ma. This is my 6th year of teaching stimulating and unique art projects to children in grades K-5. I have interned as a graphic designer and also had jobs as a wedding photographer. During the summer, I work as an assistant director to a summer enrichment program in Winchester, Ma. Outside of work- I am a member at large of the Boston Guild of Puppeteers, and also work on my own art which includes building my portfolio of paintings to show and sell, as well as complete small digital photography jobs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I feel I have accomplished extensive training and maintain several effective qualities relative to the area of a Tutorial position. I graduated with high honors (Magna Cum Laude) from Salem State College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. I also have two years of a Nursing major’s curriculum from University of New Hampshire. This steers me to believe I would be the perfect candidate for these student’s needs. As you can observe throughout my resumes, I am a diversified, balanced, and well-educated individual, which would certainly be an added asset for the Tutorial position.
There is no such thing as an unteachable child.One must teach using a variety of methods in order to reach all learning types.They need to expand,enrich,& build on children's knowledge.Genuine learning is the process of discovery & students must use their mind, not just their memory.Invite & ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst with two bachelor's degrees. One degree is in Spanish and I consider myself completely fluent, especially having spent a semester in Costa Rica. During this time I volunteered at a school teaching students ages 5 through 18 English at different levels. My other degree is in Social Thought and Political Economy which required a lot of writing, generally 15 to 25 page papers per class. It is a major dedicated to social change and I learned subjects in all areas including History, Current Affairs, Politics and Political Science.
I have been a gymnastics instructor for about eight years which has helped in shaping my teaching style. I love to push children in a supportive manner so that they can believe in themselves and truly get the most of their education. On top of teaching for the semester in Costa Rica, I also wor ... read more
