Minardi, Margaret

I believe in a thorough classical training. I teach from the plinth up. Once students have mastered structural and proportional goals individual strengths are encouraged and expanded.I am passionate about the unlimited creative possibilities found in each student. I Have a wide knowledge of colleges and universities and their specialties. I am able to discern the individual needs of students and am able to direct them pointedly. I am versatile with mediums that include drawing and painting, printmaking and mixed media. I am also expert in the preparation of portfolios for college and for A.P. portfolios. For me, teaching is a joy and a privilege. My teaching experience includes 28 years at Northport H.S. where I taught Studio in Art, Drawing and Painting and Advanced Placement Art. 1988-2017.
