Ready or Not...


Tomorrow students come back.

Here I begin year two as a music teacher. In many ways I feel more prepared than last year and yet I still feel unprepared.

My goal this year with this Blog is to make it more real. At the conclusion of every week I want to journal what we have accomplished and where we have fallen short. I fear doing this because I am really allowing myself to be very vulnerable but at the same time isn't that what music is all about?

So while I invite you in a very personal way to step inside my music program this year I also ask that you not judge me or my teaching style. Be patient with me while I am still learning what works for me and what doesn't, remember I am only a second year teacher. I am always open for constructive criticism and to be honest I will need lots of comments to help motivate me to regularly post.

So if you are interested in reading a BLOG like this please comment and let me know.

I Miss The Students


As I was thinking about my last post I realized that I rarely had thoughts of changing careers during the year. Was this because I didn't have time to think about it?

No I believe it is becasue when things got hard or just annoying the students made it worth while.

I am in it for the students!
