Synopsis
Private Music Lessons: A Manual for Teachers is written for any music teacher working with elementary, middle school, and high school students in a private lesson setting. Chapters 1-5 consider the musical skills needed to work with students in the areas of movement, rhythm and rhythm notation, aural skills and tonal notation, and musical sensitivity.
Chapters 5-8 focus on beginners, middle school students, and high school students, respectively. Each of these three chapters addresses cognitive behaviors and social and cultural behaviors. The high school chapter also discusses differentiating instruction for individual student needs. Chapter 9 considers teaching to individual differences in the areas of ethnicity and culture, gender, language, persons with disabilities, and giftedness.
Chapter 10 focuses on skills needed to maintain a healthy studio including elements such as recitals and choosing repertoire. Important relationships with students, parents, school music teachers, other private teachers, adjudicators and pianists are then considered in Chapter 11. Chapter 12 presents the “business” side of studio teaching and includes sample letters, forms, and studio materials. Chapter 13 provides suggestions for instructors teaching courses on private lessons.
Materials for this text have been developed over 30 years of private teaching in New York and Michigan and have specifically been piloted with undergraduate and graduate music performance students in my “Teaching Private Lessons to Middle School and High School Students” course at the University of Michigan. Over 70 students coming from all areas of brass, strings, woodwinds, voice, piano, and jazz studies have had the opportunity to provide feedback.
