In my professional journey, I’ve been deeply engaged in the field of mental health and wellbeing, particularly exploring how art serves as a powerful medium for expressing intricate emotions. This exploration has integrated into my teaching philosophy, where I’m passionate about empowering students to harness art as a tool for self-expression and communication. 

 

Through my work, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative impact of artistic expression on individuals navigating mental health challenges.. By incorporating art into my teaching practice, I strive to create a nurturing environment where students feel encouraged to explore their inner worlds through creative means., I believe art provides a unique avenue for individuals to articulate emotions that may otherwise be difficult to convey verbally. 

 

By fostering an appreciation for art as a form of communication, I aim to equip students with valuable skills for personal growth and interpersonal connection. My goal is to cultivate a classroom environment where creativity flourishes, empathy thrives, and every student feels empowered to share their story through the universal language of art.
