Synopsis

Improve Your Teaching!: An Essential Handbook for Instrumental and Singing Teachers (Faber Edition: Improve Your Teaching)

A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

Making lessons fun by stimulating the creative and imaginative right brain in lessons and in practice is central to Harris s method. Aural work, memory and improvisation activities are approached with the book closed and the teacher is encouraged to use metaphorical and imaginative language to inspire learning. A section on removing the initial psychological barrier to practising is particularly interesting. This leads neatly into setting right-brain musical tasks away from the book and helps to alleviate performance anxiety.....the chapter on group teaching has a fabulous game to teach the behavioural concepts of ensemble playing. --Stringendo, October 2010

This is an absolutely brilliant book! Give me some roof-tops so I can shout from them! Written in a friendly avuncular style in easy-to-read language, the book teems with ideas and solutions for all aspects of instrumental teaching. It is no exaggeration to say that every page contains several useful ideas that will be welcomed by any instrumental or vocal teacher.....This book should be in every teacher s brief case (not on their book shelf); it should be on the CT ABRSM reading list (if not there already); at the very least it should be in the library of every instrumental music service in the country. --European String Teachers Association Newsletter, Winter 2006
