TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I began my teaching career in 1989, as a 5th grade teacher. Since then, I have taught numerous other grades. Between teaching in the classroom, I took a 4 year hiatus at which time I was the Education Director for the Cal Poly Performing Arts Center. This was a dream job, but the fundraising aspects were stressful for me. I then returned to teaching, and a turn of events brought me to my true calling and I became an art teacher.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I like to use art lessons to teach other subject areas such as science and social studies. The dvds I created, available on my website are fully integrated with multiple subject matter. When I teach art, I try to keep this quote at the forefront of my mind: "The artist is not a special kind of man, but every man is a special kind of artist." A.K. Coomaraswamy- born Sri Lanka 1887- died in Massachusetts 1947
