  Janet’s specialty is working with students individually or in small groups to  develop     artistic skills and  self expression. 
    She discovers each student’s strengths and builds upon them to encourage technical     and creative success.
    Some of her students’ and  their parents' testaments are shown below:
"Mrs. Armentano is the kindest and most competent teacher I know. When I started  my first class with her in high school, I was very timid, but Mrs. Armentano slowly helped me come out of my shell to eventually create artwork that would help me win a Scholastic Art Award and get into nine colleges.  Her ability to help students express  themselves, learn themselves, and become themselves, is an aspect of a teacher I have  yet to find again.”
                                                          -Fiadhnait Moser, WHS graduate
"You have been such a huge influence in my  life and I never would have gotten to  where I am without you.  Everyone has that one special teacher who took an interest in their life and pushed them to be a million times better than what they ever could    imagine - you were that special teacher to me."
                                                       - Nealy Stiles, WHS graduate
"I don't think it's possible to express my full gratitude for Mrs. Armentano and capture her passion for teaching through this short statement.  Mrs. Armentano provided me with more than just a thorough art education; she has a heart of gold and was always there supporting me through any struggles and cheering for me on the sidelines of my accomplishments.  I can guarantee you that art lessons with her will be full of knowledge and smiles."
                                                            -Larissa Sehringer, WHS graduate
"Ms Armentano has been the most influential teacher in shaping my artistic career. With kindness and hard work she guides each student to creating the best work possible while providing the tools necessary for good technique.  She allows for exploration of one's personal style and interests, and she gives every student individual attention and invests in their success.  Without her I would never had the courage nor the ability to pursue art professionally."
                                                             -
Dasha Bobrova, WHS graduate    
"You have been the most encouraging teacher and helped me to discover that I truly  love art. I am always going to remember you."                              
                                                               - Teresa McCarthy, WHS graduate
 
"My son attended multiple weeks of vacation art classes with Janet over three consecutive summers and finished each week with an amazing painting or drawing.  Each of her students might have been given the same assignment but came out with  completely unique interpretations.  Janet is very skilled at nurturing each student's  individual artistic strengths and vision.  She teaches technique according to the direction in which each student she gauges to be moving."                                                      
​                                                                         
- Chris DiBona, parent
"Janet taught my daughter art in school and through private lessons for 6 years.  She not only empowered her to explore her ideas and express them through various mediums; she help launch her into art school, so that she can further explore her passion.  And perhaps more importantly, she has been and continues to be an important mentor and role model.  Our whole family has been so lucky that our daughter has had Janet in her life.  And anyone looking for a private art teacher will find much more in Janet; a lifelong lover of art and of teaching: a teacher who truly enjoys supporting her students as they learn and grow."
​                          - Claire Sehringer, parent

"I cannot say enough about Janet Armentano; her skills as an art teacher, her incredible creativity, and most importantly, her ability to not only recognize an individual’s art acumen, but to be able to draw out that person’s capability and facilitate their expressing themselves through a variety of mediums.
Janet Armentano worked with my daughter for two academic years in High School.  She taught her methods, materials and a variety of processes; the tools of the trade.  But most importantly, Janet gifted my girl with daring.  She facilitated her ability to wade in unfamiliar waters and unearth a reality of herself she might never have known.
I could never say enough to adequately explain about Janet.  But if you ever have the chance to study with her, JUMP, as fast as you can."
