PRESENTERS

Embracing Uncertainty in Music Education
Beth Duhon
Happier Teacher: Like a Regular Teacher, But Happier
What would it take to be a happier teacher? Luckily, this is possible and easier than we think! Duhon will not give you the answers but will guide you through journaling and suggestions to process what small changes would improve the quality of your teacher life. From sugar, Sabbath and solitude to margin, martyrdom and musicianship, it is surprising what areas can affect our attitude and outlook. Just like minor corrections help keep a car on the road, small habit tweaks and micro-actions can take you from an unbalanced and overwhelmed music teacher to a happier music teacher.
