Teaching since 2007
Tessa Parker teaching a student how to start a basket weaving project.
I have taught students of all ages in a variety of settings around the Savannah area. My classes have included: elementary art, yearbook design, Ceramic arts, Fiber arts, Drawing, Painting, Comprehensive Art I and II, Printmaking, and AP2D Art. I have taught in private and public schools, in several camps and even with adults in group settings. In my classroom, I enjoy an energetic and inviting atmosphere for my students to learn and a desire to make art. I encourage students to try new things while problem solving and exploring all kinds of media. I currently teach AP2D and Printmaking at Savannah Arts Academy.
