Yearly Recital and Awards Ceremony in May
This is the cumulative performance and awards ceremony to "show off" everything the students have learned and those extra incentives of which they've been a part.
Opportunities to Participate in DVMTA, EVMTA, and ASMTA Events
These are local and state music teachers associations that hosts exciting and beneficial events such as the Cavalcade of Rhythm, Ensemble, Awards in Excellence, Achievement Days, Arizona Study Program, Music Marathon, and other opportunities for the students to perform and grow in their talent.
Monthly Student Studio Classes
Once a month, my students come together for peer performances and feedback. We also discuss the month's listening assignment and Composer of the Month. I also use this opportunity to sneak in a little extra instruction through games in the group setting.
Incentive Programs, Studio Contests, and Awards
My students are encouraged to be goal driven. We set goals weekly, monthly, and yearly goals. To motivate my students to achieve their goals, they participate in various studio programs and contests.
Master Classes and Workshops
As a music teacher, I have continued my education through classes, reading, seminars, and anything else I can find. However, I am not able to be an expert in everything. So, each semester I invite someone who is an expert in their field to put on a master class or workshop for my students. These have proven to be extremely successful and fun for my students.
