bad days

Some days you just can't expect what is going to happen. Like when you have amazing plans to do a huge technology lesson all day and the server goes down all day. Where do you go from there when your back up plan involves recorders that you told the students to not bring today.
The hardest part is not being able to show the kids how you are feeling because once they see you crack, that is the end of all possibilities of productivity.

I love teaching elementary music class. The comments from the students alone are enough to make my day worthwhile.
Today I was asked:
are you 20?
can you be my new piano teacher since mine can't come to my house any more?
why are you here?

new beginning

Well this is my most recent attempt to put together a Blog. Hopefully, this will be a place that I will post my experiences in being a music teacher. So here goes nothing.
