Alumni Success
I had always wanted to be an art teacher and at ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ I was able to explore the best of both worlds! In May 2015 I graduated with my Bachelor of Fine Arts with a concentration in painting. Following a year later I graduated with my Bachelor of Arts in Teacher Education. The ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ education program not only gave me the knowledge and theories in education, but it provided me with hands on experience and practice in the classroom. During my time at ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ I was able to observe and teach in a variety of learning environments. The professors at ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ were able to give me along with my classmates a personalized education.
After graduation I was hired at a private elementary and middle school in Voorhees, NJ where I currently teach art to grades preschool all the way to eighth grade. Walking into my first day of school as a certified teacher I could not feel more prepared. The ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ education program fully prepared me for the real world experiences in teaching. Everyday I believe I am critiquing and improving my teaching practices to better my students learning. I have ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ to thank for that!
