Piano Practicum

Taught by Caroline Fraser, Piano Practicum offers a smaller class size (limit 5) and is very much focused on discussing the individual strengths and areas for growth of the teachers taking the course. Each teacher should come prepared with two 30 minute lessons (or lesson segments)- most likely recorded from your home studio (unless you are local and want to bring a student in to teach in person). All participating teachers watch the videos together, and each teaching sample is followed by a discussion led by Caroline. This is a unique course that not only offers individual attention and tailored ideas for improving your own teaching, but also many opportunities to learn from the teaching and feedback for the other teacher participants (usually a mix of more and less experienced teachers).

Observation of Masterclasses taught by Caroline Fraser and Hillary Nordwell is included in the course.
