Elizabeth Perthel
Creative and Imaginative, Patience and Caring, Passionate, and Dedicated. These are just some of the ways I see myself with family and friends, students and faculty, at home, in the classroom (my home away from home), and at school as well as in the community. I believe in creating an environment with positive, and high expectations that facilitate artistic exploration, openness to the possibilities, and a sense of innovation that leads to success and mastery. I believe patience and caring are key ingredien ... read morets in establishing relationships that promote mutual respect for others and the shared environment, the classroom, or the studio. I believe it is important to create a space that promotes comfort and safety for the student which in turn encourages self-expression. I believe engaging students in learning how to think, how to creatively problem-solve, and be an artist is just as important as content knowledge and process skill mastery. I am dedicated to the understanding of a growth mindset, the not yet in life, the growth that comes with a struggle, do-overs, and like I was told…there are lots of ways to drive the truck, lots of ways to get from here to there and if you look where you are going… you will get there. I am always seeking excitement in possibilities and the next adventure.
