alpine arts center.
I am currently working at Alpine Arts Center as a teacher. I started out teaching art camps in 2016, which I taught various mediums based on a weekly theme throughout the summer. I taught ages 7 to 12 and had to plan a 3 hour lesson Monday through Friday. The summer job then turned into a full time job where I was teaching adult classes as well as children's after school classes. I mastered the pottery wheel and am now teaching private lessons on the wheel. I also taught at Vail Ski & Snowboard academy (5th, 6th, 7th, 11th & 12th) where I taught mostly the pottery wheel, painting, and sculpture classes.
Through this experience I have worked with all ages and have hundreds of awesome lesson plans that any elementary school child would love to make! I have pictures of some of my favorite lessons below!
