255: How I'm Preparing to Teach Again

The Elementary Music Teacher Podcast: Music Education

Today's episode is truly special as I open up about a chapter of my life that's been in the making for a while. Yes, you guessed it – I'm talking about returning to the classroom after a significant hiatus. My journey back to teaching has been a blend of excitement, challenges, and self-discovery, and I'm here to share my insights, personal experiences, and practical tips that I hope will be of immense help to all the wonderful teachers out there who are considering or embarking on a similar path.

In full transparency, a month ago, I found out the virtual school I would be teaching at decided not to open their doors after all. But... I'm excited that I'll be teaching preschool and elementary music at a private school and will be talking about this more in September on the podcast and right here on the blog. So, stay tuned for that!
