Teaching Abilities

 I feel pretty confident in my teaching abilities as of right now. I don't have all of the answers, but I feel confident in knowing how to find them. Actual teaching is going to be a completely different experience, and I am just excited to figure things out on my own.

    That's great but please reach out to others in the school becuase you will find someone you really connect with and this will be helpful during the year to learn about the culture of the school and families. It will also be a great way to stay ahead of events and expectations of the music program for the school.
