Summary
With 30 years of art teaching experience in various settings and age groups, I operated a private art business for children from 1990-1994. For the past 28 years, I have focused on teaching fine arts including drawing, painting, pottery, and mixed media at high schools in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. I have led Art Clubs, advised the Art Honor Society and AP art programs, and coordinated ESY programs for students aged 3-19 during summers. My teaching philosophy centers on being a passionate and dedicated educator who prioritizes students' needs above all.
