Wohletz says each student identifies specific goals and unique subject matters they aim to showcase within their art practice. “My priority is to help students communicate their unique thoughts and skills as clearly as they can through their art, verbally, and through writing,” added Wohletz. Wohletz’s favorite moments in teaching consist of the electric times when students are genuinely surprised by what they’re able to accomplish. “Their excitement, hard work, and energy in the art building is infectious and inspires me in my own artistic research,” revealed Wohletz.
