First day and I'm already picking up another class
Tuesday, September 7, 2010

It was my first day with the little ones and I was surprised to find the k-2nd graders easy as they were. Some things worked well, somethings were a learning experience, and after 40mins they lose their ability to pay attention.

After I finished, the woman in charge mentioned their was an open slot for a class tomorrow, grades 6-8, and I was asked to lead it because they had no available teachers. Of course I said yes, I need all the work I can get, and now I'm looking for general music teaching ideas that aren't heavily percussion or choir oriented because, again, they have programs specifically doing that and they want me to do something "different."

I'm thankful to be finding work of any sort, but I really wish I could teach a band or a choir. Still, I ain't forgettin' how lucky I am to find work in this economy, even 3 once a week classes outside of my specialty.
