Mr. Newman you are awesome because you always make sure we understand and actually make class enjoyable. You make everything more fun and the way you teach is very understandable. I nominated you because you are my favorite and the things you make sense not only what you say but how you say them. Yo make my day more fun and more exciting it gives me a reason to be like "wait today will be a good day I have art." And that's not because I am so passionate about art and love it so much but because you are such a great teacher it gives me an even better reason to love art and to be excited to do art. Sense the beginning of the year the how much I care and want to do has changed you have encouraged me to do better and express myself through my art and not only to appreciate my art but to enjoy as well. You have changed my point of view on art now when I walk into class I'm not just thinking about drawing the lorax (again) but I'm thinking about making something even better.
