  6. When did you contact them or find the answer? - day, month, year
  7. Who did you speak with? - if applicable
  8. List any additional info that with be useful. At least tell us what you learned by answering these questions.

8. For being an art teacher, the best way to approach schooling is to take all the studio classes possible. You should get your BFA and then go back and take teaching courses, because schools look for the amount of studio time you have on your application.
