Successful Art Educators

 --> -->

            A successful art educator is passionate and deliberate about teaching students to think creatively. This process involves creating an environment where students solve problems involving a variety of media, design, and construction components. The role of an art educator is to facilitate a clear understanding of these problems and solutions by providing meaningful and relevant suggestions, feedback, and guidance.

            Art educators who are willing to experiment with new ideas and materials continue to develop their own skills as working artists. It is important not to loose the curiosity and enjoyment of the artistic process that provides the necessary balance between educator and working artist. Learning to navigate though problems you encounter during your own artistic endeavors will provide valuable insight you can offer to your students.
