Elementary Music for Secondary Teachers Parts 1 & 2 – Guest Interview on the Music Ed Mentor Podcast

I had the opportunity to sit down and talk with Elisa Jones of the Music Ed Mentor Podcast about what it’s really like to teach elementary music.  Most music education degrees come with a K-12 teaching certificate, but not all people are immediately comfortable teaching elementary kids. Many of us focused on secondary school in college, and when confronted with the realities of teaching elementary music we have to make some adjustments. Listen in to hear our conversation about some of the pitfalls of teaching elementary music, what can make your life easier, and a lot of tips and tricks for being the best elementary music teacher possible!  Find the episodes on the Music Ed Mentor Podcast website here or check out the episode on Apple Podcasts.
