Teaching art is like giving a child their voice to create and share their story. My kids love art and they love me for providing safe spaces

I wanted to share my knowledge and passion of the arts that I have obtained over the years as a student.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceOne of my most memorable teaching experiences was last year before Christmas break when one of my middle school Art students made a significant breakthrough during a drawing exercise. This student had been struggling quite some time to meet their artistic growth goals when it came down to drawing basics. I passed by quickly and set down some compressed charcoal, a kneading eraser, graphite sticks, and went about my instruction as if nothing had happened. They picked it up and boom magic!
What would you do with the $25,000?I would invest it back into my art students by using it to buy better art mediums and materials, travel abroad with them to encourage knowledge base of art history, and if I had anything left over; I would use it to pay off student lunch debt.
