“There are numerous art institutions, how do we choose the right one?”
Many parents pay attention to and struggle with this topic.
Every parent has different answers in their hearts.
There are countless art institutions on the market, with varying quality of education.
We understand the worries and confusion of parents.
Today, we will share some opinions and perspectives on this topic.
“艺术机构千千万万，如何选择合适的机构？”
我想今天的话题很多父母都会关注和纠结
每个父母心里也会有不同的答案
市面上现在充斥着大量艺术机构
鱼龙混杂教学质量参差不齐
我们都很理解家长的担忧和困惑
今天就让小编分享一些观点和看法
1.Don’t just look at how beautiful the students’ artworks are; a good art class should focus on the process rather than the outcome.
Parents are often persuaded by course advisors showing outstanding student artworks that resemble masterpieces when choosing an art course. They fantasize about their children creating similar works someday.
Parents should not focus only on the results but rather the reasonableness of the course settings and content, the classroom atmosphere, and the teacher’s teaching methods. A good art class should cultivate children’s autonomy, observation, creativity, and imagination through art. The teacher should encourage children to express their wildest ideas. A good teacher focuses on the child’s creative process and learns from their growth rather than just pursuing visually appealing effects.
Tree Art encourages each student’s imagination through at least six different art media without interfering or limiting any wild ideas. We believe that there is no right or wrong, good or bad in art, and it is not about benefits. Just like Benedetto Croce’s performance aestheticism: “Intuition is art.” He believed that the images intuitively felt in the heart are equivalent to “performance” of art, and whether they are written, painted, or made is irrelevant. Everyone has intuition, and everyone is an artist.
1.不要只看学员作品有多漂亮，好的艺术课比起作品效果更应该注重过程
父母在挑选艺术课程时，最容易被课程顾问忽悠的就是学员优秀作品展示，一张张张如同大师的临摹作品。就幻想有一天自己孩子也能画出一样的作品。
请家长在选择时，不要只看重结果。应更关注这些课程设置的合理性和内容，上课的氛围，老师的教学引导方。好的艺术课应该是通过艺术培养孩子的自主性、观察力、创意力和想象力。老师能不能鼓励孩子去表达天马行空的想法。好的老师是更注重孩子的创作过程，通过学习孩子的成长而不仅是去追求好看的画面效果。
Tree Art 每节课以至少六个媒介以倾听的方式去协助孩子的想象力的表达，绝对不会干涉和限制任何一个天马行空的想法。我们相信艺术没有对与错、好与坏、不分善恶，不涉及利弊。如同符号论美学与完形心理学美学的代表人物贝奈戴托·克罗齐 (Benedetto Croce）的表现论美学的核心论点：“直觉即艺术”。他认为心里直觉到的形象就等于“表现”了艺术，至于这心中的艺术写不写，画不画，做不做，那是无关的，直觉即艺术。人人都有直觉，人人都是艺术家。
2.Do not choose an art institution that requires children to copy artworks; teachers should not judge artwork based on techniques or compare them between children.
Every student is “taught” to create similar-looking works, blindly pursuing painting for the sake of imitation. Observation and imagination are more important than painting itself during a child’s growth. Art institutions should guide children to discover beauty and develop their own perspectives.
Regarding evaluation, every child is a born artist, and the role of an art teacher should be to help fulfill the children’s imagination and encourage creation, rather than simply judge based on the quality of their techniques. Parents can support their children’s imagination and inspire their creativity but don’t need to nitpick at their artworks or compare them with others.
Tree Art firmly believes that students should not create art for the sake of being “good” or “bad”, “similar” or “different”. Our teaching methods do not provide any sample artworks or templates. Studies have shown that when children see their teacher’s artworks, they might feel unnecessary pressure, pushing them to imitate and limit their imagination and thinking abilities.
2.不要选择艺术机构是要求孩子去临摹，老师通过技巧去评价作品的好或不好的，修改孩子作品或比较孩子之间作品的
每个学员被“教导”的创作出一板一眼的作品，盲目去追求为了画的像而画。在孩子的成长过程中观察力和想象力比画的本身更加重要。艺术机构作为启蒙的角色应该去培养和建立孩子去学会去看和发现美的视角。而不只是教孩子画的像不像。
关于评价，每个孩子都是天生艺术家，艺术老师的角色应该是以协助的方式去完成孩子的想象力和鼓励创作。而不是单纯以技法的好坏判断。作为家长可以去支持他们的想象力从而激发他们的创作，但没有必要对作品吹毛求疵，不断修改，甚至是比较不同孩子之间的创作。
Tree Art一直坚持学员不应该为了“好”或者“不好”，“像”或者“不像”而进行艺术创作。我们的教学方式不提供任何范画、示范作品。因为通过教学研究，孩子看到老师的作品会感受到无需有的压力和推动他们模仿的能力从而限制的孩子的想象力和思考力。
3.A good art class should guide students to create artworks using various multimedia materials.
A good art class should encourage children to discover beauty and stimulate their imagination. The more creative space children have, the more they will discover beauty in their lives.
Tree Art recommends using six or more types of art media in each class, allowing students to use them freely without restrictions. By experiencing various art materials, students can stimulate their imagination and creativity.
3.好的艺术课应引导学员用多媒体材料创作作品
好的艺术课程应该是鼓励孩子有一双发现美的眼睛，鼓励孩子自己去创想。越有创造的空间。鼓励孩子发现生活中的美好才最重要。
Tree Art 每节课推荐使用六种媒介以上画材，学员可以不受限制随意使用。学员通过感受和体验不一样的画材可以激发想象力和创意力。
4.A good art teacher will guide according to each child’s characteristics rather than using a unified model.
Every child is unique. When choosing an art class, ensure that the teacher has enough patience to understand each child’s characteristics and abilities to improve their overall quality effectively.
Tree Art divides classes into small groups based on each student’s abilities and age. Teachers conduct ability assessments every six months to ensure that students are in the appropriate class.
4.好的艺术老师会根据每个孩子的特点来引导，而不是统一的模式
每个孩子都是独一无二的，在选择艺术课程的时候，你要确定老师是否有足够的耐心去了认真解每个孩子的特点和能力，以便有效提高孩子的综合素养。
Tree Art 根据每个学员的能力和年龄进行小班制分班，每半年会老师进行能力评估务求学员所在的班是适合。
