[quote=Anonymous]I agree. My kid (perfrctionist) had an art teacher who was like that. He hated art and wouldn't even draw a stick figure after her class. I remember there was one particular project he was so excited about...until he received his grading rubric back that had not one good thing to say about his project. Our family is artistic, and he is not, but he had been so excited to see if she would finally have something positive to say about his artwork because he had worked so hard on it. She was replaced the next year (wonder why) and he went into 5th grade convinced he sucked at art. That new teacher was very encouraging even though he was not artistic, qnd focused more on "there is no wrong way to make art." She actually picked one of his projects for the pyramid art show. It was an abstract project involving a squiggly line, and he was so surprised and excited. An art teacher can make such a difference in a kid's confidence.[/quote]
