Experience Summary
I student taught for sixteen weeks from August 22nd, 2011 thru December 2nd, 2011. My first eight weeks I worked at a middle school and taught symphonic band, beginner band, and private lessons. During these eight weeks, I gained much experience working with students at all levels and abilities and reached the potential of every student to the best I could. My next eight weeks I worked with elementary students at three different schools. This was a great experiece because I built the foundation of some many future musicians and was able to teach students on multiple instruments with various teaching strategies.
Teaching Style
My teaching style varies on how I feel the student will learn best. Sometimes that may be through demonstration, others though sound. Some students read music better while others learn better through rote.
My Hobbies
In addition to playing my trumpet and trombone in various music ensembles, I enjoy playing multiple sports. I also enjoy running and going to the gym. This past year I would add I enjoy the most playing with my 10 month year old niece.
