Welcome to Drama/Acting/Theatre with Ms. Henderson
I 100% believe that I can learn just as much from my students as they can from me. My teaching philosophy is simple and spans across any and all courses that I teach at any given time.
I have very few rules but I am very firm in my implementation of them:
1.) RESPECT
- This is respect for me, for your peers and for yourselves. Our classroom will be a place that is free of judgement. It is a place
where you can come and fail, make mistakes, and grow. That cannot happen if there is negativity filling the room.
2.) BE PRESENT
- Show up to class on time ready to work. We have very little time together each day and we need to take advantage of it while
we can so please do not waste your time, my time or the time of your classmates.
3.) TRY
- I know that new or strange things can be a scary thing for some people. I promise I will never make you do anything before
doing so first. "I can't" is not a phrase that I understand. Don't get in your own way. I am here to help you and teach you but if
you're willing to try, we won't get very far.
My door is always open for students and parents. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have. If you have been my student at any time, you are always my student. Don't feel like you cannot contact me if you have graduated or if I am no longer with you or at you school. Wherever I am, I am always available :)
