During her 25 years as an art teacher she has taught students of all ages and believes art enhances our daily lives. Teaching in both Primary and Secondary schools has shown her how important an informed art lesson is in obtaining the desired academic outcomes. As a result of art education a deeper understanding emerges, encouraging an appreciation for each student to understand that their own individuality is an essential part of art making and, that their art is not only interesting but also creative. This discovery raises student’s self esteem, which in turn increases confidence in their own ability to work through ideas unaided; creating an art work that is pleasing and imaginative. By immersing themselves in the creativity of art making, ultimately other aspects of their academic life are enhanced. A student’s confidence increases as they become aware that their own ideas are important and accepted.visualizza meno
