  • @northeastartist4158

    I truly wish I had an art teacher like that, most of the artists I had were mostly like 'okay we're sculpting clay today' or 'we're making prints today' but the one art teacher that I had, was my vocational teacher, who taught Commercial art. We called him Mr. B, so I'll use it here. He taught me the fundementals, told me about how I could use paypal to pay for my work(Which later got hacked but we don't talk about that) and kind of encouraged me in a way to actually take art seriously, and treat it like a trusted business partner and not just a playground best friend, if you catch my drift.

She died but me and my friends from that time still absolutely treasure her and I still have some of the artwork I made in her classes. 💚 love you Ms. K. She was also a coach and made an impact on countless lives. I’ll never forget her. Art teachers deserve so much more (funding, support, appreciation, etc)

    God this video was so sweet it nearly made me cry, Mr. Hudson is a blessing of a man, reminds me of my spanish teacher, who, ironically enough, was known by the kids, as one of the worst teachers in the school, he was known for yelling, being grumpy and being strict, though looking back on it, this was probably because foreign languages were compulsary in my school, and most of the kids who didn't want to do languages ended up choosing spanish together so they could mess around in class, and somehow in increasingly obnoxious ways, yet, when said kids would suddenly all get "sick", you could really tell he cared for the class now that he wasn't having to spend most of his time telling them off, if it wasn't for him I probably would've given up on Spanish as I had always wanted to speak it, but was stuck with learning French instead (which is just, not a fun language imo) until we got to choose our options, meaning while everyone else had already been doing Spanish for 3 years, I was just starting, and the degree to which I was falling behind at first, really got to me, I thought I was awful and that me doing Spanish was pointless, and yet, one day when we were packing up for lunch, he just said something that, really impacted me "If I had a class of clones of you, teaching could be like a dream", and that really stuck with me, it motivated me to push further, and it was just moments like this, that pushed me to do as well as I did, I will always appreciate what he did for me, until the day that I die.

Then he stated how relieved he was that you had fond memories. He also was shocked you still had that note. He said he is Very Proud of your success. Oh, and the vending machine, it was always jamming taking people’s money. It had it coming.

She was incredible, she cared about us deeply and even though she barely knew me the one morning something traumatic happened to me, she sat down with me and talked pausing the whole class just to be sure I was okay. She even donated t he art we didn’t want to the elderly home next door! Art teachers will always be amazing people most of the time, and I hope everyone gets a Mr Hudson one day

      Its a special feeling to have an adult show actual care and concern about you and try to help guide you in life. I don't know how it is in other countries but here in the US that doesn't happen often and when it does some folks react negatively, thinking the teacher has bad intentions. It's a strange feeling though, going to school, feeling like a kid and having an adult actually speak to you like you're an adult. Talking to you one on one, giving you life advice or just teaching you how to be a little miscreant.
      I totally would have nabbed from the vending machines because I've done that myself. Snacks and drinks.
      But yeah, having an adult speak to you like an adult, treating you like a mature person, that was something rare and special to me. I'm an adult now and I miss having someone speak that way towards me. Most adults I know are like me, grown up kids who are still trying to find a place in the world because of how chaotic everything is.

    I really wished I had a teacher like Mr. Hudson, I once had a really fun time when I first learned how to play the trombone when I was 12 in the 6th grade. However, the band teacher was the worst human being constantly putting me down and telling me how awful of a trombone player I was and having ridiculously high expectations for me and if I didn't live up to it he'd single me out just to humiliate me. He emotionally abused me so much that I gave up playing it even though to this day at 17 I miss playing it so much.
    The aftermath of those emotional scars?
    I struggle with asking for help from a teacher in fear of them humiliating me, putting myself down when I get a failing grade in an elective class, and stressing myself out

    I had a teacher like this, and I still talk to him. He wasn't an art teacher, though.
    I've been legally blind since birth, and Indiana public schools aren't great with people like me. He'd come in a few times a week to help me with visual aides and things that would make school easier for someone like me. He's basically the only reason I survived public school, and I seriously cried when he retired. I saw him, and still do, as a friend more than a teacher.

    I had an art teacher similar to Mr Hudson. She was an older woman who could be lovely some days but often was very frustrated with everyone and everything. But she could be really supportive and she was really fucking good at critiques and helping you see what you needed to work on. The first year or two of highschool I thought she hated me. But she was one of the most supportive teachers I've ever had. She would let me and some other students eat lunch in her class and work on things or if our teachers let us come down to her class during her break period to do art and hang out in the quiet class. Honestly in highschool those were some of the best moments. Because I was going through a lot and those times were the few moments I could breathe and just do something I enjoyed. And I improved a LOT. I learned a ton in her class and I got really confident in my abilities. She also took me aside sometime in my last year in that class to call me out for maybe having an eating disorder. And explained her own exspirience with it and how I needed to find help then or it would be a lot harder to get through. I didn't stop then because I still had to convince myself the issue was real, but it still meant so much that she cared enough to notice I wasn't doing okay and to check in an relate her own exspiriences.
    Unfortunately I didn't really keep contact with her because it turned out she had some really not so ideal views on trans people. And especially in my last year of highschool I was realizing more and more that I might be trans. And i didn't want to put myself into an unsafe situation. But I still am grateful she saw me for my art and for what I was going through. She was one of the reasons I got through highschool. And if I didn't have her to motivate my art I don't think I'd be here today.

    Glad to hear you had an art teacher like that. My freshman year in high school i had a gruff older guy on the brink of retirement as an art teacher. He would scold you if you talked in class (he even called me and my friend's parents to let them know we were talking to much!) and immediately i thought "I'm going to hate this class. Art is supposed to be fun, right?". Turned out he was very skilled, gave legitimate critiques, encouraged everyone to try new things and push their skills. Honestly, getting an A+ from him on a hand sketched portrait i did was probably the most meaningful grade i'd ever received. I STILL have that portrait today in my box of paint supplies, it's 20 years old at least. My classmates did not like this teacher but he was EXACTLY what i was looking for in teacher. He had rules, expectations, he wanted you to succeed, he'd actually discuss technique and how to develop it. it was the most rewarding year of art I took, because he retired and was replaced by two other teachers that 100% didn't care what was happening and gave no meaningful input whatsoever, everyone else loved them and the easy A's, but i was not happy and butted heads with them through the next 3 years. i expected silly things like "commercial art" to you know, have even a small amount of information about making art commercially. Nope, just a sketch pad with random assignments like "draw a butterfly" that everyone got an A in. Anyway, that's my really long way of saying Mr. Hudson sounds like he was the GOAT of art teachers. I'm thankful for people like him that are so rare, i'm sure he's fantastically proud!

    So I think I can explain why Mr. Hudson didn't tell anyone about what was going on wuth you. Sometimes people are being abused at home, and bringing it up with other teachers and parents can make a situation worse. The only time a teacher HAS TO inform a parent or other staff of a student and teacher interaction is when the stufent wants to self harm or harming others. It's honestly more helpful to talk to the student first than to go directly to staf or to the parents, and then if the student would like to, then get parents and staff involved. It's all about consent, and he can't force his way in. I respect that.

    • @azuradawn5683
      @azuradawn5683 2 년 전

      I don't at all want to take away from the impact this teacher had nor am I disagreeing with you that sometimes getting more people involved is anti-helpful, but (at least in the US), teachers are "mandatory reporters" of abuse. They do not have an option - they can't choose to keep quiet - they MUST report any sign of abuse. If they don't, they can lose their teaching certificate and get arrested. I don't think anything Illy said here would put Mr. Hudson into the realm of having to report, but it's not true that "the only time a teacher has to inform... self harm or harming others..." so I just wanted to clarify that...

    I had an arts teacher like this, from grade 5 to 9 (Germany). He seemed intimidating and he was loud and passionate about art, but he was an amazing teacher once he saw that you were serious about your work.
    He'd always be firm, but helpful with his critiques and he taught me so much.
    On the last day of class before he retired, he called some of us into the arts room. We'd had a project a couple of months earlier where we made fish out of a styrofoam-like material and he had made us each a dolphin to take home and keep as a memory.
    He's dead by now. I was devastated when I found out, but I'm still grateful to have had him as my arts teacher for so long.

    This story affects me quite a lot. I dropped out of my last year art masters at a prestigious school due to burnout and have been struggling to get out of depression. The one thing I manage to somewhat keep up is the art classes I give to kids and adults at the local community centre. I’m not saying I’m particularly good or that it isn’t challenging to get students to focus/respect me and one another, but I feel I at least offer most of my students a space to learn new techniques and experiment with their own creativity.
    I lack the drive to make it as a professional artist, and even though it doesn’t feel like an important job compared to other subjects or job fields- this kind of testimony makes me feel some pride in the profession of teaching art…

My little kid brain didn’t get I was being manipulated.
