Through my own art and my learning of art education, I have found that staying true to one's identity, experimenting and mastering multiple media, and developing critical-thinking skills are the most important goals I have for my own art classroom. I want my students to get to experience multiple forms of art-making and I hope to instill joy and passion for art in my students.

       In order to promote these goals, my classroom will be a space where my students feel that they can express themselves and the things that they like the most. I will teach students from many different types of media and allow them time to explore the media and begin to grow with it. I will have the students find ways to problem solve and help them challenge themselves to improve on their art-making skills.

       Overall, I hope to be the best teacher I can be and to prepare my students for an education where they create, explore, pose questions, and problem solve in the art room and outside it.
