Learn MoreI became a teacher to share my passion and joy for learning about the arts. I want students to be able to leave my classroom with a new found love and/or appreciation for the arts in any capacity.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceIt's hard to choose one, I just love when my students can find connections of my class to what they are learning in their general studies or if they see the art or artist we have been talking about out in their daily lives. I love seeing them connect their world to the arts. The excitement they have to share with me what they found or learned outside of my classroom brings happiness to my heart.
What would you do with the $25,000?I want to provide for my classroom opportunities my students might not get normally. I love giving them experiences and memories they will remember forever. I want to buy supplies that I normally asked to be donated to my classroom and also update my tables and stools in my classroom as well.
