Considering a Music Teacher?

“don’t place too much emphasis on the importance of performance ability.  Emphasis must be placed on a candidate’s capabilities as a teacher, not on their capabilities as a musician.”

 Instead look for:

Good communication skills

High degree of maturity and responsibility

Enthusiasm and a positive attitude

A true interest in musi education

Adequate performance ability

Knowledge and use of suitable age and level appropriate lesson curriculum
