I’ve been there and it looks something like this….
It’s 8:25, and your first class of the day is about to walk in. You’ve been so busy planning the holiday concert, and the song your students are going to sing in this week’s assembly, oh, and you have a meeting with the principal later, who will ask you if you can prepare a song for that teacher who has been teaching in the school for 40 years and is retiring….
You’re so exhausted by all of this sort of stuff that you haven’t had time to focus on the main part of the job that you love: Teaching kids music!
You’re thinking to yourself, “How can I do all of this, when so much is asked of me every single day?”
Deep Breath.
THERE’S A MUCH EASIER WAY TO FIND ENGAGING MATERIAL TO PRESENT TO YOUR STUDENTS THAT IS FUN FOR THEM TO LEARN, AND FOR YOU TO TEACH.
FACT: 44% OF NEW TEACHERS LEAVE TEACHING WITHIN 5 YEARS.
The #1 reason why teachers leave teaching is because of teacher burnout. With all of the stress that you have to deal with, every day, it’s a wonder that that number isn’t much, much higher.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by all of the stress that your facing with teaching….
You need to find a way, a system, to help you feel better about teaching…
Is there a system, a method, out there to help you with this?
Now, there is….
You already know how important it is to have an effective lesson plan in place in order to have joyful music classes...
And, yes, this outcome is totally within reach for you, whether you are a brand-new music teacher, or have been teaching music for 40 years… ….but achieving this outcome is only possible when you re-frame the way you think about lesson planning and dare to follow a method that works.... ...one that leverages up-to-date techniques of teaching music, along with tried-and-true tricks that have simply worked for generations…. This same method is the method I’ve used in my classrooms for 20 years, all by teaching material that, through trial-and-error, I found to be effective for teaching musical concepts again and again…. And it’s the same method that you’ll credit a few weeks from now when you realize you’ve got a full month of lesson plans ready-to-go, and you’ve gained back multiple hours each week to do all of those other tasks you’re asked to do every day…. That’s why I’m excited to share with you my exclusive method of teaching PreK-6 music….
