Marissa Reece

I am an art teacher and Michigan native from Metro Detroit. I currently live and teach in Los Angeles, CA. I attended Michigan State University and am a big Spartan fan. I have a passion for exploring new things. Whether it be traveling across the world to learn about other cultures, or discovering the places I have yet to enjoy near home, I'm eager to experience as much as I can. 

 

I am passionate about the role a good art education can have in a student's life.  I aim to create a classroom in which artistic growth and progress are emphasized rather than outright talent and skill. I work with the curriculum to create units and lessons that build on each other from year to year, and increase artistic growth, knowledge and skills over time. My classroom encourages the investigation of artists and materials and helps to develop creative problem solvers, critical thinkers, and reflective learners.
