What was the hardest thing to get through while pursuing art education
Was it something you learned in a class/school or first hand actually teaching? And how did you get through it?

Honestly, the hardest part for me wasn’t something I learned in class it was dealing with self-doubt when I actually started creating In school, you focus on techniques and grades, but real-world experience brings a whole new level of pressure.
What helped me was remembering why I loved art in the first place. I had to stop aiming for perfection and start trusting my own growth. It’s normal to feel unsure sometimes, just don’t let it stop you from doing what you love. That passion will always guide you through.

I am still working towards becoming a fully licensed teacher in Ohio. I need to pass one more test for a five-year renewable license. I've been teaching for almost ten years, or eleven if you include paint and sip events and scouting. I've spent six years as an adjunct professor and the last four years as a high school Fine Arts teacher. The most challenging part is balancing classroom management with instructional strategies. If you graduated with a BFA in art education and found a job, you should check your state's licensing requirements to see what you need to do to get licensed.
