About Michelle
I am a licensed art teacher and I currently teach part-time at an elementary school in Portland, OR. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from California State University Monterey Bay. I am experienced in teaching almost all artistic mediums. I like to help my students discover their innate, unique creativity and allow for students to find fun, healing experiences through art making.
I also speak Spanish very well. I lived in South America for two years recently and became fluent during that time. I also minored in Spanish in college.
I look forward to facilitating a fun and fulfilling learning experience for you!
I started teaching in 2016 when I decided to get my TEFL certificate in South America. As soon as I held my first classes and lessons, I knew that teaching would become one of my greatest passions.
For ESL: I have my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate and a year and a half of ESL teaching experience in Peru and Argentina.
For Spanish: I minored in Spanish at CSU Monterey Bay, I attended a month-long intensive Spanish course at Conversa Institute in Costa Rica, and I lived in Peru and Argentina for two years
For Visual Art: I have my Bachelor of Arts Degree from CSU Monterey Bay and am a practicing visual artist. I also received my art teaching credential and I'm in my second year of teaching elementary school art.

For the first ESL or Spanish lesson, I begin by assessing the student's verbal, writing, and reading skills. I ask them about their experience with the language (travels, previous classes, etc.). We also discuss the student's goals for the lessons and what they would most like to get out of them. I will then structure the lessons based on the student's needs, goals, learning style, and level.
For my first art lessons, I like to find out what styles of art the student likes; I have them show me some artists and works of art they enjoy. We discuss their previous experiences in the arts and their goals for the lessons. I cater the following lessons to meet their goals. Throughout the lessons, I strive to uncover and develop their own personal style.
I have worked with all ages from preschool to adults.

She is a thorough and patient teacher that brings creativity and an engaging personalized style to each lesson.
Michelle is a wonderful human with kind and positive energy. My children love her classes and in general spending time with her. We are always delighted when our kids have had a chance to do art with Michelle as she is open to creativity and offering a variety of medium exploration.
Michelle is a great teacher and my children love her! Her experience and love of teaching shines through. Her teaching credentials are in art which was her major in college. She minored in Spanish and lived in South America for over a year teaching English to Spanish speakers and is certificated in that too.
I whole heartedly recommend Michelle for her skills and rapport with children!Michelle is very gentle and so attentive! My 10-year-old daughter looked forward to Michelle visits with eager anticipation. Michelle worked with my daughter on drawing, painting, using pencil, charcoal, pastels, watercolor, and introduced her a wide array of methods. She got my daughter even more excited about art. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone!
