I know some of you have been back to school and lessons for a month now, but I’m still getting my bearings, adjusting to a new schedule, organizing studio classes, and setting my intentions for the year. This is not a formal practice, but it’s something I sort of subconsciously do to mark the beginning of the new teaching year. I ask myself a few questions: - “What do I want this year to look like?” - “What do I want my students to experience?” - “What do I want to prioritize or focus on?” - “What do I value in the music teaching and learning process that I want to lean into?” Do you do this, too? If you’re on my email list, I shared in last week’s newsletter three things I’m bringing with me into the new year drawn from this practice. Today, I’m sharing a few more—7 things to carry into the new teaching year—and I hope this inspires you on your teaching journey. For show notes + a full transcript, click here .
