As an artist, I recognize the importance of developing my own aesthetic language. As an educator, I am committed to clearly communicating and imparting these values. Both practices have continually motivated me to expand my knowledge of art techniques and processes as well as the dialogue of contemporary art. A good teacher must expose students to art history, engage them in contemporary art, and allow them to make meaningful connections to their own lives and art practices. Teaching constantly requires me to digest and reference outside influences and disciplines to support student’s diverse needs. Encouraging students to learn from each other and collaborate is an important part of my teaching method. Through this process, students are exposed to diverse perspectives constantly. This also creates an environment that is receptive to formal and informal critique. An investigation

I am a listener first and foremost. I want to know what my students expect from me and in what areas s/he regard as most essential to her/his success. I believe all people can learn and understand. It is a pleasure to watch students grow in skill and comprehension and move toward confidence. I love teaching. I earned my BA before I was old enough to vote. While my classmates were in his/her senior year, I was teaching. Eventually I earned my M.Ed. in Reading, then started School Administration and Adult Education. In all these fields I find similar necessary skills: patience, co-operation among staff and colleagues, knowledge of subject matter, communication with the community and parents and a well defined curriculum. Moreover, I am a published author and a former writer with St. Louis Globe Democrat - Suburban Journals. As a favor to my students, I often evaluate papers for submission

My first teaching experience was as a high school senior where I was given the opportunity to teach a small group of 5th graders as part of the Missouri A+ program. We began with division, quickly moving into linear and nonlinear algebra, before touching on the fundamentals of complex numbers, graph theory and trigonometry, before concluding with a derivation of the quadratic formula and its applications. I spent three semesters as the academic chair for my fraternity enforcing study hours for fraternity brothers with lower GPA’s; tutoring students in algebra, calculus, physics, and computer science, among other fields. I have also had five years of experience in Latin up to the college level with one year of Japanese. I believe that every student can meet his or her potential provided that the subject matter is presented in a way that makes sense to them and that any material can be

I take pleasure in working with community-oriented organizations, building my body of work, and emerging as a young artist. My skills are proficient in drawing but I am also disciplined in painting and sculpting. I believe that my creative strengths as an artist and my organizational skills make me an excellent art tutor. I want to work with others, guiding them to improve their skills with positive and constructive criticism. Having been a recent graduate, I have the advantage of knowing what students appreciate when they are being taught. Making art should have us engaged, educated, and liberated. I want students to enjoy art by helping them learn to work through frustrations: experimenting with techniques and exploring subject matter (color, value, shape, contrast, etc.) I give encouraging suggestions and provide freedom to promote self discipline.

After graduating from Duke University with a BS in Economics and a Minor in Psychology, I moved to New York City to work in a large financial institution. During my two years there I volunteered as a mentor and tutor to a 7th/8th grader, a college counselor to a high school senior, and a career mentor to a middle aged woman who had lost her job during the financial crisis. I have extensive experience with essay writing, test preparation, and mathematics. I have also studied both French and Italian and am capable in both. I believe that one of the most important aspects of a successful teaching relationship is understanding both the student's personal learning style and what motivates him or her. I care deeply about the success of the students I work with and am able to adapt my teaching techniques to meet each student's personal needs. I strive to not only give my students greater knowle
