Art Therapy and Counseling Graduate Student

Joseph G.

Hello there! My name is Joe! I am currently studying for a Master’s degree in Art Therapy and Counseling through Drexel University. Throughout my time at Drexel, I am able to learn how to work with all different ages in many different types of learning environments. Before going to Drexel, I attended Drew University where I studied received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art. While at Drew I focused in animation, drawing, and photography. One of the many benefits of being an art student at Drew was the small learning environment. My last year at Drew I was able to take an independent study in Animation, as well assist a professor in an upper-level Drawing class. This allowed me to not only become very familiar with the medium but also get teaching and leadership experience.

Art Therapy and Counseling is a big passion of mine and I am very eager to obtain my degree. During this process, we learn to work effectively with all different age groups. This allows me to be able to connect with a wide range of students to better assist them in their tutoring needs. Some of the tactics that I take from Art Therapy into a tutoring session is my ability to be open, patient, and kind.

During my tutoring sessions, I promote a comfortable learning environment filled with laughs and knowledge. I want to see students strive within their greatest potential. I promote students communicating their goals and working with them to best achieve those goals!
