Background and teaching experience
I am an Visual Arts educator from Toronto Ontario, that has recently graduated from the Teacher's Education program at Ottawa University with qualifications in Visual Arts and English. I also have an Bachelors of Design from OCAD University. During my practicum I taught at David Suzuki Secondary School where I realized the value in formative assessment and feedback over grades, and creative learning over content. I am very interested in 21st century initiatives and ways to make the Visual Arts curriculum more authentic and true to how contemporary art and artists now learn and practice.
Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.” Edgar Degas
