Are there core skills that MUST be acquired in order to teach music? Should there be? This week, I welcome Lynn Atkins to discuss the current challenges we face getting young teachers ready to teach music in an era when our current students and recent graduates had a pretty serious interruption in their education. In addition to this, we have debates raging about whether or not music degree recipients should even be required to be proficiently literate in notation. Throw in a rapidly increasing cost of tuition, AND a rapidly increasing pressure on collegiate faculties to recruit and retain tuition paying students, and we may have a boiling pot on our hands.

Tune in as Lynn shares his experience teaching at a college in California. We share thoughts about the need for different types of music ed training programs with different barriers to entry, the right of students to be taught be highly competent teachers, and the aspirational goals of an excellent teacher training program.
