Fresh Starts
Hello everyone, and welcome to our blog!
Once a month, our team will be contributing posts on various topics pertaining to music education, Music Therapy, and psychotherapy.
From Tamara —
I have always enjoyed the beginning of the school year. I love the feeling of a fresh start! We welcome our new students/clients, resume lessons/sessions with our returning students/clients who take the summer off, and continue on with our students/clients who were seen through the summer months. It’s a time to set new goals, get back into routine, and anticipate all the progress and fun ahead!
As we start anew, I address the following with my students/clients and their parents/guardians:
- Should we aim toward finishing current method books? Complete a Royal Conservatory exam? Enter a festival or competition?
- Are we happy with the current music you are learning, and if not, how would you like to expand your learning?
- What therapeutic goals can we continue to work on, or new ones to start?
- Most importantly, how can we work together to make the most out of this year?!
Wishing everyone a wonderful start to the upcoming school year!
