Hello! My name is Astrid Martinez. I am a recent graduate of Carthage College in Wisconsin, where I studied to become an art teacher. I currently teach art to students in grades 6–12 at Racine Alternative Learning in Racine, WI. I have a strong passion for working with children and creating a fun, supportive environment. Art is one of my favorite ways to connect with kids. I love planning creative projects, bringing my own supplies, and helping children express themselves through art. Whether it’s structured activities or just having fun making something together, I enjoy making each experience engaging and meaningful. I am responsible, caring, and dedicated to ensuring children feel safe, happy, and inspired. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family!
