Just like the many students in the US returning to school this month, music teachers are making goals of their own for the upcoming school year. In honor of that, Christine is switching from interviewer to interviewee, and with the help of producer, Russ, will be discussing some of the activities she's planning on implementing to help her students become more connected and creative in their music making. We also discuss a teacher's role in preparing and protecting their students in very competitive environments/auditions, as well as reviewing lessons Christine has learned from a few of her fantastic guests on this program!
