One-Day

Teaching Masterclass

A Masterclass just for you

A different kind of PD experience

We love supporting music teachers! Through Emotionally Intelligent Music Instruction, we believe that teachers can help their students not only learn their music, but get all of the cognitive and emotional benefits that music has to offer.

The One Day Teaching Masterclass is the most collaborative, practical way to learn and apply Emotionally Intelligent Music Instruction.

What is a One Day Teaching Masterclass?

It’s a masterclass!

In this masterclass, the skill being mastered is Emotionally Intelligent Music Instruction - that is, teaching music with the function and the implications of the uniquely musical brain always in mind. 

How does it work?

Each teacher who attends gets a block of time to work on some music with a small group of their own students. In that time, Allison will work with you and your students to

  • Improve one piece that they know,

  • Develop one piece they are working on, and

  • Experience one piece they’ve never tried before.

    As you work, you will give you tips, pointers, correction and instruction. The focus isn’t on the students, it’s on YOU and your teaching.  You will get to hone YOUR teaching skills, and watch as others learn and grow as well.  It’s a collaborative and hands-on way to practice EIMI.
