Kang Yuting, an art class teacher at Taitung Girls’ High School, returned to China after graduating from the Art Research Institute 21 years ago.TaitungAfter working as a substitute teacher for an internship, I discovered that Taitung needed art education resources, and I stayed there ever since. She took students out of campus and painted communities, subverting students' imaginations about art and creating local art tourism features. Last year, she was recognized by the Ministry of Education's Teacher Award.
After Kang Yuting came into contact with the aesthetics project in 2013 and served as a seed teacher, he opened elective courses to promote aesthetics education. "I hope that I can lead students and bring beautiful things to every corner of Taitung." Kang Yuting said that beauty education is not only about superficial beauty, but also about beauty and kindness from the heart. The most direct teaching is to teach by example and lead students to practice.
Kang Yuting brought the beauty left behind by his students, including the painted walls of Taitung Railway Station, Duoliang Station, National Army Heroes Hall and Taitung Post Office. He also led students to participate in beautification work of communities and civil welfare organizations on many occasions, and even combined art withcharity sale, launched a painted shoe charity sale to help the disadvantaged. Through every practice of art, students can understand the meaning behind each activity. Accompanying students to do it together is the most direct example of teaching.
Over the past 21 years, Kang Yuting has been committed to improving students' art abilities. Last year, nearly 80% of the graduating students were admitted to the National University, which also set the best record for the school's art class.
Kang Yuting said with a smile that being a teacher was not her dream since she was a child, and she did not regard teaching as a job at first. After graduating from the Art Research Institute and returning to Taitung 21 years ago, she worked as a substitute teacher for one year as an intern, and discovered that Taitung needed art education resources. , so I decided to stay; most girls in the East have no art foundation, and they have been trained from scratch, and their results are equally impressive.
In 2016, Kang Yuting suffered a serious illness and once again thought about the meaning of life. After recovering from the illness, he returned to teaching. Not only did his enthusiasm for teaching remain the same, but he also became more and more crazy. He hoped that through the course, children would have unlimited imagination in artistic creation. She won the National High School SUPER Teacher Award in 2019 and the Teacher Award last year.
