Independent Music Teachers Forum

Fall IMTF
Wednesday, November 15, 2023
10:00 am -12:00 noon
La Chatelaine French Bakery and Bistro
627 High Street – Worthington, OH 43085
Please arrive early to get your breakfast and then join us in the fireplace room.

This informal gathering meets twice per year to discuss current topics concerning independent teaching.

The first hour we will have a guided discussion about what has changed recently in our professional field. Feel free to bring a few thoughts and ideas.

Special emphasis will be given to the following topics:
• Over-committed students
• Current economic challenges
• Communication with students and parents since the pandemic
• Anxiety in the students

We’ll examine the 2020 MTNA Comprehensive Survey of over 3500 independent teachers.

We will allow time during the second hour to celebrate our successes as a district this fall! Pianorama and the State Conference will be among the biggest events to discuss, but chairmen of other events are also welcome to share their experiences.
These forums are for you! We hope you can join us for stimulating discussion and camaraderie. The range of teaching experience and collective wisdom is very inspiring!
