Today on the podcast, I’m sharing a letter I wrote to all first year music teachers. But if you’ve tuned into this week, and you are not a first year music teacher, I want you to stop. Collaborate. And listen. AND YES, I”m serious.
We’re all first year teachers. Because, yes, we were thrown into the ring last spring with all the distance learning and all the things that happened in what seemed like overnight, and we were literally surviving. It was our first taste of adapting and innovating and doing a complete 180 from what we’re used to, and now… we’re back. In whatever capacity it may be, we’re back for more of the unknown, the unexpected, and most importantly, providing our kids with what they need now more than ever: music making.
So yes, while it’s important for us all to love on our first year teachers who definitely, undoubtedly had something completely different in mind for this year, I’m willing to bet that you did too. You probably had the best ideas for when we get to make music together again… and now it looks different. So take a few minutes, listen to this brief, but important, letter. And realize that yes we have to innovate, yes we have to adapt, but someday we will make music again.
