Indonesia
The Teaching Music Effectively course is designed to help you develop and build confidence in your teaching skills. You’ll work closely with a subject mentor to look at some of the instrument specific issues relating to teaching. You’ll also explore current theories in music education and how these can be applied to your lessons.
All those who participate will receive feedback on their current teaching and advice on how to incorporate new techniques into their lessons to make them more effective.
What does the course involve?
Teaching Music Effectively begins with a six-week online distance-learning module. This is followed by three consecutive intense study days in Indonesia, where students will work with their Course Leader and subject-specific mentor in a mixture of whole-class and smaller groups.
During the distance-learning module you’ll be asked to submit a DVD-recording of your teaching to your mentor for feedback. You’ll also complete an action-research project during this part of the course, which you submit to your mentor for comment.
Who is the course for?
This course is ideal for all music teachers; you may be new to teaching or simply looking to refresh your approach. You need to be 18 years old or over and teaching at least two students regularly to enrol on this course.
How is the course assessed?
Your mentor will mark and offer feedback on the work submitted during the course. On completion of the course and coursework you will receive a certificate of successful completion for your professional development portfolio.
