Teaching Philosophy
While teaching kindergarten through twelfth grades, I endeavored to study art history, pursue archaeology museum work, and explore many studio disciplines in order to best serve the deep inquiries and interests of child artists in urban areas. An additional major in English Literature focusing on literature and art outside the canon, as well as my certification in the teaching of English Literature and general classroom teaching have also given me an array of approaches to teaching. As a professor, I continue to work and volunteer as a teaching artist for New York schools, public libraries, and other inclusive educational organizations to remain authentic and relevant as a teacher educator.
I also bring my verbal and literary interests to art/art education curriculum. Given the importance of both voice and written expression for artists and teachers, I feel very fortunate to have a strong literary background that enables me to guide students in writing about and discussing art and education. Art educators face specific challenges of curriculum, advocacy, and justification of their roles — and of the very existence of their field — that are somewhat unique to the arts. I hope to help my students understand and articulate the value of art education and begin to become advocates for art education.
My teaching approach at all levels is largely one of a facilitator and mentor, encouraging students to discuss critical issues of art and culture even while they express themselves artistically through two and three-dimensional media, writing, and hybrid formats of visual arts research. As a mentor to my students, I carefully investigate (or curate) their work in order to make inquiries and suggestions concerning artistic technique, conceptual content, and arts-related research. I attend carefully to their evolving goals, honoring and extending the pathways of students who are often quite reflective and resolved about their own paths as artists and educators.
As a registered expressive arts educator informed by expressive psychoanalysis and depth psychology, I believe very strongly in the relationships we build, not only between disciplines and sub-disciplines of art, and also between community members and auratic art objects. I strongly believe in the value of education as a part of artistic development and caring arts research practice. I am grateful that to have the opportunity to explore all of my passions in a day’s work within the field of art education.
