Years teaching at Incarnation: 6
Currently teaching: Kindergarten–8th grade Art
Proudest teaching moment: “My proudest teaching moment is when my students use what they learn in my classroom in other subjects and at home. It makes me so proud to see their excitement when they learn a new skill or when they come see me to tell me they saw an artist that they learned about at home or at a museum.”
Teaching philosophy: “I believe that every child is an artist. My role as their teacher is to foster their creativity and help guide them through their own individual artistic growth.”
Toughest challenge facing educators: “One of the toughest challenges to overcome is the acceptance and understanding that every child learns differently. Differentiation and modification takes time, but is essential in keeping students engaged and motivated in schools today regardless of the subject being taught. Be accepting, patient, and consistent.”
