When I was 6th grade, I wanted to became a drawing animator. So I try my best to draw somethings on the internet(I was those kids that try to draw fan art on the internet, I know i'm those kids). So whenever I show my drawings to friends that draw, they always judge my drawings and/or they would just walk and laugh. I was humiliated, sad, embarrassed, and depressed. I would just look at my drawings crumble it up, and throw it away so I will never see it again. I didn't know if my drawings were that bad or it was probably my "friends" treating me like a jerk. I lost all hope, I really want to reach my dreams.Then later on, I see people that are younger than me draw way better than me. I didn't understand, I was confused, and lost more hope. I was starting to give up. But when my mom took me to an art class. I gained fate....ish. I realized if you want to draw and animate you have to have a lot of practice. To studying anatomy which takes at least 10-30 years to master, I also want to work for Pixar one day because that is my dream job but, I realized that you need an extremely strong portfolio to enter. It can at least take you one year if you are lucking, or probably 10. So I was worried. Not only my art counts, but my college work counts as well. So I tried my best to draw and paint as much as I can so I can gain skills on it. 12 months past, I came here, then I met these amazing teachers, Ms Diaz, Mr Ngo, Mr. Y, Ms. Robinson, Mr Hahn, Mr. Pak, you, and everyone in this school. And the next quarter entered in art class so I can learn some skills I didn't know about. You taught me so many things I didn't now about. I thank you for everything. You have taught me well. And I hope you have a bright future Ms. Kohl. Thank you so much.

I'm not in your VPA class right now, but last quarter or the quarter before was really fun in your class. It was really fun learning different lessons about the painters. In addition, helping you to paint was also really fun. I think I had a lot of good experiences in your class.

Thank You for being our homeroom teacher replacing Mr. Pak. Mr. Pak was struggling with our Homeroom and he was having a hard time trying to calm us down. You took his place as our homeroom teacher. You always trying to help us out even though you might be strict, its all for our own good. Thank You Mrs. Kohl!

This year I didn't get you for any class, which is pretty much a bummer. However, last year I did and I am glad I did because your class was one of the funnest and best. I learned way more about art in your class than I have from any other art teacher. You are an amazing teacher and leader so thank you so much for being someone I could really look up to. I really admire how hard you work and how much you challenge us, so thank you for that too. You're such an incredible and inspiring person. :) <3 -wendy

Thank you for helping me, all of us throughout the school year. Thank you for teaching me how to draw, and I like the way that you teach. All the effort you put to make the school better is inspiring for all of us, at least for me it is. I am glad that you are our art teacher and not only that, but I am thankful that you are a part of this school. Thank you again for also teaching me most of the art techniques that are being used in this world almost everyday and other techniques. You are a hardworking teacher and I appreciate that. Even if people said that you were strict and mean, I didn't let that bother me or scare me, therefore, I find you being a nice teacher and hardworking. I'm glad to have a teacher like you because I really never met a teacher like you out of every school I went to, you are the first one that I find being cool with all the rules and you teaching skills.
Another thing that i appreciate you for would be that you always try you best to help most students whether it's for helping them improve on anything or engage others to become a become a better person in life. It's really fun in your class and I can remember being really nervous, but now I enjoy being in your class and I´m glad that i came to RKMS:)
Thank You Ms. Kohl <3

Thank you for being one the hardest working teachers that there is in this school. If it means anything I just want to let you know that I greatly admire you because of how hard you work. Your way of teaching art class is unique and you make your teaching style very unique from other teachers. You dont just teach art, you teach how to get where you want to get by setting an example and being a role model by just demonstrating how hard you work . Thanks for helping out the school a lot and really getting yourself out there preparing things for us the student even when we are not worth that much. Thanks for reminding me to live life as if someone is always watching it helps, thanks. Thanks for always giving it you best, it really shows your commitment to almost everything. Keep it up.

Ms.Kohl although I didn't have art the second semester I still learned a lot from you. I learned the new art terms and also I learned about many famous people. I know that I'm not the best at art but thank you for pushing me to try harder and trying to bring my inner art skills out. -Tiffany Kwon

I love your room, it is so organized!! Thank you for helping me improve for 2 years. I was never good at drawing and I still don't think I'm the artist you expect. Aside from my flaws, thank you for still helping me until the end.

You have to be one best art teachers I've met so far in my life time. you taught me mean ways to draw and also just helped me at being a better artist in general even though i have the worst hand writing i feel like you still accept my work even thought its sloppy and messy it means a lot.

Thank you for being our wonderful art teacher this year. It was a pleasure to be in your class and learn more about art and make me a better artist. You don't just teach art, you also teach many other things for example the color of water is made mostly from cyanobacteria. Thank you for these wonderful 3 semesters

With all honestly speaking, I was quite intimidated when I very first met you. Even til now. Of course a lot has eased off, and thanks to that I've been able to have my best moments through working with you. It's really an honor for you to trust me with a lot of the school work and I am very thankful that you are always there to guide me through the day. You are one my very models in school and an inspiration in art. Have a great day!! ^w^ -Aimee

I still remember the first day I walked into your class. I felt so nervous, but I didn't expect to learn and enjoy your class so much. I look forward everyday to your class because I feel I learn so much, and have seen improvement throughout the 3 years. Thanks for all you've done.

Even though we didn't to get to see other much this year, (except to tuck my shirt in) I really think you were a really good art teacher. I was able to learn more about different styles of art. I was able to learn how art greatly contributed to history. I really admire art and now I try to be more creative with using the techniques you taught us. And, because of your words about rules, I now try to follow them so I can try to be good role model to myself and to Rise. ^.^

Thank you for being a wonderful art teacher. You taught me many ways to draw people or backgrounds and more. You made my art skills turn ok. I still suck at art but you made me better at it.- Ethan

Ever since I was young I really did not enjoy art but did enjoy doodling. It was the one thing that helped me the most on things like tests. Afterwards I started to develop skills on my own and thought that maybe I had nothing else to learn until I hit 5th grade. I didn't really think my art was any good afterwards (and I forgot why). This was until I saw you teaching here at RISE on my first year. My sketchbook started to fill up with more and more improvements in my techniques. I started to like art more and more. In the beginning I always thought you were one of the more intimidating teachers because of how tight you are in terms of the rules but as I gradually started to like your class more and more my opinion of you has changed quite a bit. I can tell that you love art and that this is something that you enjoy doing

The first time I walked into your class was in 6th grade. I was a bit nervous and I didn't know what to expect. As the school year went on I soon found out what a great teacher you are. You are very professional and you seem very knowledgeable. I enjoyed being in your class, all 3 years. Thank you Ms. Kohl

Ms. Kohl you have been a great teacher this year and I know you work really hard and you are almost always busy, but I see that you can make time for students who need help and stuff outside of art. Thanks for being a great teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for this wonderful semester. I have learned so much from you and I don't like to see me leaving all my 8th grade teachers. Thank you for the work and effort you put into the trips and even though there are troublemakers like me you still manage to help them. For that I say thank you and have a wonderful 2 months.

I personally did not like drawing and art in general until I had you as my art teacher for all three years at this school. Your lessons are very engaging and significant to the topic we learn. I also like how you implied many hands-on activities during the art classes. Like many other students, I used to think that you were strict, but as I got to know you I had a lot of respect for your teaching skills as well as your flawless professionalism I also thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve in the student government. It was a memorable experience that I would not forget. Thank you for making my stay in this school amazing.

Thank you for changing to our advisory teacher. We never liked Mr. Pak. Anyways, you are such a good drawer so I think that's why you became an art teacher. I have learned so much things from you that we can use in the real world.

You are an awesome VPA teacher. Through out my life (and even today) drawing is just something that doesn't excite me when I have to do it. It is one thing that I know that I hate. It's not that I hate the topic itself, its because I suck at drawing.

Thank you for everything. Always staying track on what I need to be successful in the school. You also are good at teaching art and improve other students. You are very organized when it comes to data. That helps us all keep track on what we need to improve. You are a good teacher to keep control of our advisory. Your teaching style helps make students responsible for their actions. When I was in art you made it interesting with the ballet and all. That was fun.  Thanks for teaching and making my middle school life fun.

She is kind and has a lot of teaching skills. She is responsible for making the EOTY LEL and she does a good job at it. She lets us borrow her books. She gives us chances during her class to finish DP's or other assignments.

I was so sad when I couldn't have art this year. I was looking forward to get feedback and draw . However, THANK YOU for taking care of our homeroom and always being prepared. Also, thank you for rewarding us with classroom parties to motivate us.

When I walked into your classroom for the first time ever I was slightly scared and uncomfortable. I heard that you were very strict and kind of scary. However I soon found out that you are as great and perfect as a teacher as a person could be.
You are very profession and you know how to get even the most chaotic class to get organized. Also always know what to do regardless of the situation, and you have an amazing style of teaching. Thank you so much for being such a great and organized flawless, engaging , and funny teacher that you are.

Thank you for being such a great teacher this year. Since we don't have PE I'm glad you make us exercise in your room to make us fit and wake up before starting our lesson. I think the best part about VPA is getting to know you and getting all the compliments and letters you give us on our sketchbooks. Thank you for always getting us on task and I really wanted to get closer to you, but I couldn't so I was disappointed, but THANK YOU!!!

Thank you for always being on top of things. You already know what your job is but you do more and take the initiative which is good and makes you a good role model as a teacher. You dont just teach art, you teach us how we could succeed by working hard because your always working hard. Your that one teacher who is alone after school working hard while other teachers have students fooling around in their classroom and that means a lot. When you teach art you also teach new information that is more

Your a good teacher! -EuniceK

# data[].attributes.body
I don't know where to start. You've been an awesome teacher ever since I've know you. Of course, you were a bit fearsome and strict when I first met you, but when I got to know you, that part of you was the part I admire and look up to. You are always professional and respectful. I think it is because of that, that students respect you as well. You are always on top of your things and always willing to help students and parents. You might know this, but you are my favorite teacher and art is my favorite class. I know you are a hard worker and admirable teacher. You are the definition of perfection. You are professional, respectful, awesome, generous, kind, humorous, and sometimes struggling with our SBAC is what make you so perfect. You are the best, the very best teacher I've ever met. :-)

When I was in your class at the begging of the year you made art fun. I have learned a lot about art in your class. You can be pretty strict but that is good for a teacher. And once people get to know you you are chill and fun.
