Bruno: ALAIS offered me the chance to develop my professional career as an Art Teacher. I also liked the idea of teaching in a small high school in which the teaching staff is very welcoming. It is also rare to find a school with so many students passionate about the arts, like ALAIS students.

Bruno：ALAIS给我提供了很好的机会，让我作为艺术老师来开拓我的职业生涯。我也非常喜欢在小规模的高中教书，因为在这样的学校里，师生关系往往很亲近，而且在 ALAIS我发现了很多在艺术上有天赋有热情的学生，这在其它学校往往是难以实现的。

Principal Holt: What is your general philosophy of education?

Josh校长：可以谈谈你的教育理念吗?

Bruno: I have always valued education and consider it to be crucial for my personal and creative development. My inspiration stems from having watched other teachers positively influence students. This is what has inspired me to join the educational system and become a key instrument in shaping young peoples’ lives. I try to bring a unique perspective to the art classroom to inspire and motivate students to learn and to encourage pride in being an artist.

Bruno：对于我个人而言，我是非常重视教育的，并且认为教学对于我个人的职业发展以及创作力的激发都起着至关重要的作用。每当我看到其他教师积极授课时，这总会激发我的灵感，这是我选择成为一名教师的重要原因。同时，我希望我可以在青少年的成长过程中帮助他们塑造人格，教给他们知识，激发他们的创作力。我尝试着把我对艺术的独特观点带到课堂中，希望可以激发并鼓励学生勇于成为艺术家。
