Identifying Musical Talent and Potential Training

Event description

Are you curious?

Do you want to give all young people the opportunity to shine?

Do you believe all young people’s musical potential should be spotted and supported?

Do you want to be able to train your peers and earn some extra income?

If you’d like to help others make a true assessment of who has potential in the classroom join us for our Identifying Musical Talent and Potential Training!

The training has been delivered to over 1000 music leaders since 2008. The success of the course means we are looking for new facilitators to help spread the word even further. We hope you’ll be one of them!

You’ll work with peers from a range of backgrounds: class teachers, instrumental teachers and other music leaders. It will be a great chance to reflect on your own practice and explore how to lead training with your peers. You’ll come together to look at things in a new way.

The training will focus on practical instrument based music making that can be used to help spot musical potential in whole group settings. You’ll learn by doing, so be prepared to explore the borders between music and noise!

 

By participating in this course you will:

Find out strengths you don’t know you have Have the chance to reflect on your own practice Learn to challenge your views and to challenge those of others Explore the differences between music leading and music teaching and how these differences can be seen in the light of identifying musical potential. Earn some additional income (£150 to £300 for every session you lead in the future, depending on the length)
