About
Happy Fingers Art is an Art Program / Traveling Art Studio for kids, based in Los Angeles, and Orange County, CA. Students will be in a creative and free environment where they can build and explore their individual creativities while building self-confidence. Through the process of exploration we help and encourage students to discover the immense possibilities of their imagination by the usage of a verity of materials.
My personal goal for my classroom is to challenge students and watch them grow to their full potential. I want to take students who have different learning background levels and see them develop together for the betterment of each individual. I want students to have freedom that allows for expression and creativity. Students should be able to experiment with likes and dislikes and to realize their strengths and weaknesses. After this essential foundation is developed, the curriculum can be molded to tie in each student’s learning style

Describe a recent event you are fond of.
One of the most memerable events that I have experienced was with one of my primary ages students. He was extremely shy and not confident when it came to drawing Sonic. We had 1 on 1 practices 2 times a week until he gained the confidence to work on his own. He walked in to class with the biggest smile on his face and showed me his folder that was full of Sonic drawings that he completed on his own time. His growth was amazing and it made teaching so gratifying
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
