教学经历｜Teaching Experience
在普瑞特艺术学院本科与硕士学习期间，我从课堂观摩、教学实习逐步走向独立授课，教授初中生作品集及儿童绘画叙事课程。此外，我曾在博物馆及 纽约华人协会的实习，并拥有一年纽约市公立学校全职美术教学经验。这些跨越学校、博物馆与社区的经历，让我能够回应不同学生的学习需求，引导他们探索艺术媒介和材料、表达自我与发展创意。
During my undergraduate and graduate studies at Pratt Institute, I progressed from classroom observation and student teaching to independently teaching middle school portfolio and children’s visual storytelling classes. My experience also includes museum and CPC internships, followed by one year as a full-time art teacher in a New York City public school. Across school, museum, and community settings, I have supported diverse learning needs while encouraging students to explore art media and materials, express themselves, and develop their creativity.
教学理念｜Teaching Philosophy
我以学生为中心，尊重不同的文化背景与学习需求。通过材料探索与艺术创作，鼓励学生连接生活经验、表达自己的故事，并在包容的课堂与个性化反馈中建立自信。
My teaching centers on students, honoring diverse cultural backgrounds and learning needs. Through hands-on exploration and art-making, I help students connect personal experiences with creative expression. An inclusive classroom and individualized feedback support each student’s confidence and artistic voice.

在这一年的全职特殊教育美术教学中，我更关注孩子们如何通过艺术认识自己、表达感受，而非单纯掌握技巧。我根据每个孩子的需求调整材料与活动，让他们以自己的节奏探索、选择与创造。这里的作品记录了他们独特的感知方式，以及逐渐建立的自信与自我表达。
During my year as a full-time art teacher in special education, I focused on helping children discover themselves and express their feelings through art, beyond developing technical skills. I adapted materials and activities to each child’s needs, allowing them to explore, make choices, and create at their own pace. These artworks reflect their unique ways of experiencing the world and their growing confidence in expressing themselves.
P.S. Vincent D. Grippo School
在这个小学里，我引导孩子们通过自画像、陶艺，与数字拼贴认识自己、表达感受。从画出眼中的自己，到制作象征关怀与自我价值的陶碗，再到用图像与文字介绍自己，每一次创作都让他们有机会发现自己的独特之处。
In this elementary, I guided children to explore who they are and express their feelings through self-portraits, ceramics, and digital collage. From painting themselves and making bowls that symbolize care and self-worth to sharing their stories through images and words, each activity offered a chance to discover what makes them unique.
Middle College High School at LaGuardia
在高中教学实习中，我通过素描与绘画教学，帮助学生建立基础，并鼓励他们独立探索自己的想法。我在技法指导与自主创作之间寻找平衡，让学生运用所学，逐步发展属于自己的艺术表达。
During my high school student teaching, I helped students build foundational drawing and painting skills while encouraging them to explore their own ideas. By balancing technical guidance with independent art-making, I supported students in developing their own artistic voice.
East Elmhurst Community School
在这个以“关系”为主题的小学艺术单元中，我引导学生观察姿态、动作与人物之间的距离，理解肢体语言如何传达情感与人与人之间的联系。通过绘画、拼贴与人物雕塑，孩子们将生活中的互动转化为视觉故事，探索无需言语也能表达的关系。
In this art unit on relationships, I guided students to explore how posture, gesture, and the space between figures communicate emotions and human connections. Through drawing, collage, and figurative sculpture, children transformed everyday interactions into visual stories, discovering how relationships can be expressed without words.
Pratt Saturday Art School Fall 2023
在初中生作品集课程中，我邀请学生以具有个人意义的物品进行静物绘画，将观察与绘画练习连接到自己的生活经历。学生在发展绘画技能的同时，通过这些物品探索身份、分享自己的故事。
In my middle school portfolio class, I invited students to draw meaningful personal objects, connecting observational drawing with their lived experiences. As they developed their drawing skills, students explored their identities and shared their stories through art.
Pratt Saturday Art School Spring 2024
在这门课程中，我引导孩子们从海洋动物中汲取灵感，设计原创角色，通过折页书讲述故事，再用雕塑赋予角色立体形态。绘画、叙事与立体创作相互连接，让孩子们自主发展想法，构建属于自己的想象世界。
In Drawn to Story, I guided children to design original characters inspired by ocean animals, tell their stories through folded books, and bring them to life as sculptures. Connecting drawing, storytelling, and three-dimensional art-making, the course encouraged students to take ownership of their ideas and build imaginative worlds of their own.
