Topic: Continuing Education as an Independent Music Teacher

Come a few minutes early to order your coffee and/or breakfast and get seated at our large table in the private room! There is plenty of parking in the lot across W. New England Avenue, behind the old Worthington Inn. One of the benefits of belonging to a professional association is continuing education. We learn so much through conferences and meetings with colleagues. During the year of the pandemic, the Internet exploded with on-line conferences, as well as blogs and courses that were always available. We’ll discuss how to wade through the burgeoning number of resources. Bring with you any sites, courses, or websites you’ve found helpful. If you paid for a conference (especially the recent MTNA National Conference), was it worth it? What sessions were particularly insightful? I will share some of my experiences and then everyone can chime in. These forums are for YOU! We always save time at the end for free discussion of whatever is on our minds as independent music teachers in 2022. We will also have a follow-up discussion on our various organization projects. Join us!
