My Project

I work in a low income school. A lot of our students can't afford their own things or school supplies. The majority of my students tend to work better during studio time if they are listening to music and blocking loud students out.

Another portion of my students get over stimulated by loud noises such as talking, the thing I have found works best for these students are noise cancelling headphones.

My goal is to allow all my students to be successful and productive in the studio environment. My students are very creative, but sometimes get distracted or overstimulated. I want all my students to feel successful.
