In my four years of experience as a student in the Visual
Design shop at Greater New Bedford Regional Vocational Technical High School, I
have never experienced or witnessed malicious violence of any kind from the
instructor, Mr. Panayakul. Mr. Panayakul would never put a student in harms way.
Mr. Panayakul always ensured that the atmosphere in the shop was fun,
comfortable, and a safe place for creative engagement; all things very
significant in an artistic and creative workplace. If any form of physical
contact was ever ensued, it was never out of malicious, violent, or inappropriate
intent. Never have I felt unsafe or uncomfortable with Mr. Panayakul as my
teacher. Mr. Panayakul was a tough teacher in aspects of art and the work we were to do, but it only made us more successful as students. Without him, we would not be the artists we are today.
Ridiculous. Mr Panayakul taught me everything I know about design. He was fair and respectful to every single one of us.
