South Gippsland Schools Music Programme Workshops

I am looking forward to crossing to the other side of the bay to present a pair of workshops to the South Gippsland Schools Music Programme. It’s a great time of year to get some fresh ideas and fire up the enthusiasm levels before school term starts. We will be exploring instrumental curriculum options, assessment strategies and effective instrumental teaching techniques.

Designing an Engaging Instrumental Music Curriculum and Assessing It
Learn the skills to build your own comprehensive instrumental curriculum that goes beyond simply preparing for music examinations. Explore the range of listening skills, aural development, creative tasks and the sequential development of instrument skills. Incorporate effective assessment strategies for use in the instrumental lesson.

Effective Instrumental Teaching
Maximise your students’ potential by understanding their learning style and exploring teaching strategies to match. Look at ways to make instrument practice much more fun. Develop skills in planning effective instrumental lessons. Includes a lesson demonstration with a question and answer session.
