Why Students Quit..
Summer is coming! Yikes, statistics show that students who do not read music & play their music over the summer, will likely go so rusty to the point a year’s worth of music lesson is forgotten. There will be frustration to relearn everything to the point they will not want to
continue after fall! Learn about other ways to prevent students from quitting.. |
Activities
Language Arts of Music. How about some music comprehensives? Time to try some music listening, reading, to composing. Highly recommend watching Disney’s Little Einstein. I have so many students showing off their knowledge of musical symbols that’s far beyond their level to listing out famous classical composers and their songs. They really remembers it!
