Art Grades 6-8

Hello Angels,

My name is Nicole Karbowski and I teach Art for Grades 6-8 at the Middle Level. This will is my second year teaching at IWA, though I have been teaching art to students for six year through different programs.

I am currently attending Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi and will be graduating Spring 2021 with my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Development.

You may contact me at karbowskin@iwacc.org if you have any questions.

Words I live by:

"I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much." - Mother Teresa

Why I became a teacher:

I grew up knowing teaching was my calling. I come from a large family of educators.

Hobbies:

I am an avid reader and I enjoy researching and learning different art forms and styles.

What I love about IWA:

I love working with the students and the staff of IWA, they are some of the kindest, most compassionate and loving people I have ever had the privilege to meet.
