Visual Art
Advisory Handbook
Teaching art can be an isolating experience; it is very different from other teaching positions. The goal of the advisory program is to connect teachers and help provide resources, feedback and support. The hope therein is that more art teachers will continue in their teaching career and thrive in their positions within your school.
MAEA is committed to helping new art teachers connect with experienced art teachers and assist them throughout the school year. Our committee has created a form to better identify current needs and serve teachers (see below). Together we can give our new art teachers a heads up for success.
Advisee
A person new to their position, including but not limited to a student-teacher, pre-service teacher, person switching contents or grade levels.
Advisors
An art teacher who has held their position for at least 5 years and feels they have the knowledge and time to assist a new teacher with content specific questions.
