As an artist I am a visual learner, so I teach in that manner. I like to first teach the fundamentals of art such as perspective and proper proportions, how to draw from life, and a great understanding of color theory. Teaching these then allow no boundaries for personal creation and self expression. I will have a print out of the course and mini lessons to complete throughout the week as well as a materials list.

I'm an artist/ educator, who sees no boundaries to where thinking and art forms should go. I enjoy all mediums of expression, each for its own ability to communicate and serve its purpose. Life is about experimenting and mistakes happen, but never let this get you down. I've failed many times and always learn and come back stronger than before. Enjoy the moment too, don't always be looking too far ahead.* 20 years of teaching of Art & Design (4 middle school, 9 high school, and 7 college level) Relaxed, but always thinking.

I love to work with students of all ages, especially children. I am kind, patient, and enthusiastic about the process of learning and living. I believe it is essential to offer an environment that creates an upwards spiral and wide web of learning through utilizing methodologies like that of Vygotsky’s Scaffolding and a Montessori Approach, as well as employing ideologies from John Dewey, Alvin Johnson and Margret Wheatley – that when you learn what you love then you will realize that everything else that need be learned is intricately connected to each other. I have a creative essence that allows me to teach with ease and students to learn and be successful in every area of their education. I have always had a passion for education and learning for myself and others of all ages. After pursuing my BA degree in Humanities awith a Minor in Leadership, I taught for five years in a classro

Having graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree, I have always strived to excel academically as well as in all endeavors. Most of my career has been working as an interior yacht designer where creativity, art principles and math were used daily. Equally important were communication skills, both verbal and written; accuracy; attention to detail and follow through. Prior to working as an interior designer, I was employed by the Miami-Dade Board of Education as a Teacher’s Assistant where I worked with elementary school aged children on a one to one basis to improve their reading and mathematics skills. It was rewarding to see the self-confidence gained by the students through their own achievement. Everyone learns at their own pace and in their own way. The challenge of teaching is to find the approach that is best suited to the student for learning. I believe that is achiev

I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of your student and then apply my creative mind to finding ways to present information. Positive reinforcement has given me the best success with students through the years. I believe there are no stupid questions and assess continually until I know that a concept has been grasped. Celebrations of milestones and victories are a large part of what I do as I believe self-esteem and failure can be the biggest obstacle a student must overcome. As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In ad

In a little under two years, I have spent my teaching experience abroad, splitting time between contract work in South Korea and Costa Rica as an English Language Instructor of both Elementary and Adult Language Education in 2nd Language Acquisition. In my experience, I came to understand that teaching language covers more than just the basics of speech and pronunciation, but developing ways in which to effectively communicate in which both teacher and student are able to relate the same ideas with one another, which include not only the areas of reading, writing, and speech, but also areas of math, science, art, physical education and wellness, and music as well. I find teaching to be an enriching field that allows me the creativity and flexibility to allow necessary adjustments to the core curriculum based on the student or group of students learning abilities and styles.
