Timothy Leistner –– Artist's Eye Gallery
Personal Statement
What would you
say is/are the most important things(s) you believe in as an art teacher?
I believe that, as
an art teacher, I have an obligation to my students to provide them with art
opportunities which not only lead them to discovery and developing new and
improved art skills but also offer openings which allow them to truly be
personally creative and express themselves individually. In many of my
art courses, I focus on art lesson which allow for many open-ended learning
activities and believe that through thematic and focused instructional
opportunities my students have opportunities to express themselves in personal
ways. One of my goals is that each of my students will express themselves
and find their own personal style through the arts.
What is your
greatest contribution to your students, your profession, and to the Arts?
I hope that my
teaching abilities and a supportive style will inspire my students to move forward,
motivating them to continue learning about the Arts, build confidence in their
abilities, develop a zest for learning, and enjoy their creative
endeavors. I trust that my contributions include sharing my personal love
of the Arts. I believe that the teaching professional is still an
honorable profession. Teaching the Arts is not only vital to developing a
wholeness of one’s education, but is also a joy. Developing new and
innovative art educational programs is one of my strengths and I hope that
reaching others, moving others, and visually impacting others is a contribution
I offer to the Arts.
