This is my visual metaphor about teaching art education. I I believe it is my job as a future educator of the arts to teach everything I can about the world and the beauty within it. Everything around us is related to art in some way. I will succeed in teaching this to my students through hands on experiences. An effective learning environment is one that is supportive and technologically rich. It is an environment that encourages artistic experimentation and collaboration between teacher and learner. Students will learn if provided with both the tools and instructional support in a creative atmosphere. I believe that everyone is a confident learner if provided with the right opportunities and the right environment.
I am looking forward to a rewarding career as an art educator.
