Philosophy of Education
My role as an art educator is to shape a learning environment that fulfils the needs of
diverse populations and provide students an atmosphere where creative thinking is
encouraged and developed. Students learn differently and have different personal experiences
and abilities. My goal is to ensure a classroom that addresses the needs of its learners which
will be best achieved by the individual effort of the teacher and student. Finding and making
personal connections with a diverse population of learners is something I develop through
collaboration with students, educators, community, as well as my own personal reflection and
professional development.
