I will be making the same clay owl live with students that same day following the process together. No previous experience required.

Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is teacher Amanda, I am an artist and I love to teach Art!!
I graduated in Textile Design at Buffalo State College in 2013 and I develop artworks in all mediums.
I am an experienced teacher in many categories. I have taught art for kids camps and all ages activites at the Albright Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, NY, I have been a substitute teacher at Buffalo Public Schools, I am also a certified ESL teacher and a yoga instructor.
Exploring our creativity is the best way to learn how or with our hands and build self esteem.
I combine different learning techniques during my classrooms, where I approach mindfulness and sustainability. I like students to learn how to express themselves by creating an art. Allowing the students to express themselves allows them to gain confidence and avoid conflict within their own homes and social gatherings.
My approach for my classes is for my students to enjoy learning new techniques and ignite that creativity!
Looking forward to having you in my class! Let's get Creative!
