-The student will co-create realistic goals and stretch goals for enhanced creative performance
-The student will improve their knowledge of creativity and problem-solving

After years as a full-time musician (an endeavor I began as a teenager), I gravitated towards teaching and obtained a master’s degree with a focus on creativity and education. I have formally and informally studied the creative process, various theories in creativity research, the role of systemizing and empathizing in creative works, and common struggles among individuals with high potential. My master's thesis focused on the role of literature while helping gifted and talented students gain self-awareness. In addition, as a creative myself, I've taught one-on-one guitar and song-writing classes for 10 years.

宿題が提供されます
Homework for this class is optional. However, ambitious students will walk away with several goals, exercises, and tasks for experimentation. If students are interested in reoccurring sessions with me, please let me know! I would be ecstatic to see similar students over longer periods of time for enhanced accountability and results.  
評価が提供されます
Informal assessment will be used throughout instruction. Adjustments will be made based on the student's needs. These adjustments include decisions around goal-setting, advice offered (based on research), and optional next steps. Most of all, I hope students feel comfortable, encouraged, and ready for risks (not necessarily assessed).
