About Me
I am a dedicated and experienced art teacher who believes in the power of creativity to inspire personal growth and self-expression. With a decade of experience in art education, I have cultivated a teaching approach that emphasizes exploration, inclusivity, and the development of each student's unique artistic voice. Drawing on my extensive background as a professional artist, I integrate a variety of techniques and mediums into my lessons, encouraging students to experiment and think critically about their work. I also teach Art history as an important part of art education.
Teaching Approach
My teaching style is rooted in fostering an open, supportive, and creative environment where students feel empowered to explore their individual artistic expressions. I emphasize hands-on learning, encouraging experimentation with various techniques and mediums while guiding students to develop their own creative processes. I believes in a student-centered approach, adapting my lessons to meet the unique needs and interests of each learner. My style balances technical instruction with creative freedom, allowing students to gain confidence in their skills while also exploring the deeper emotional and conceptual aspects of art. Through this approach, I inspires student to think critically, embrace mistakes as part of the learning process, and discover their artistic voices.
