FAQ’s
Four Day EIMI Residency
What is the Four Day EIMI Residency?
The Four Day Emotionally Intelligent Music Instruction Residency gives you the training and the practice you need to get started with EIMI.
EIMI, or Emotionally Intelligent Music Instruction is teaching music with the function and the implications of the uniquely musical brain always in mind. But EIMI isn’t just knowledge of the musical brain - it’s understanding how to use that knowledge in the classroom.
What happens during a Four Day EIMI Residency?
Before the residency, a group virtual meeting with be planned to find out more about you! Getting the lay of the land will help us understand your unique needs.
On the first day - usually a Monday - we will spend a full day doing a deep dive into the new discoveries of Applied Music Psychology. We will spend a whole Professional Development day getting into the special specifics about how music works in the brain - and how to apply that in your classroom.
But it’s not enough to talk about how to make something work in the classroom. Emotionally Intelligent Music Instruction is a skill. It’s something that almost requires a little bit of apprenticeship.
So, on days two, three, and four, we will travel to your classrooms and schools, and we’ll start applying EIMI in your classes. Through demonstrations and time spent working with your students, you’ll start to see how EIMI works, the difference that it can make, and how to apply it to you.
In the following weeks, you will get one-on-one time with Allison to get personalized plans for how to practice those skills in YOUR context.
