Saturday, April 2 2005 * 8:15 A.M.-5:15 PM

The Power of One

When you work with observers as a teacher, you have the power to change lives. And it arrives down to the little things you say and do each day.

Focusing forward the "Power of One," Professional Studio Saturday will attempt to answer so questions as," Is what I am doing really making a difference?" "Is the interaction I have with parents of my pupils important?" "Is working so many hours to make for a like reason little money really going to change the world?"

If you have asked yourself single of these questions, you are not alone. These questions preoccupy the minds of nearly each independent music teacher in the geographical division at one time or another.

visitor speakers Julianne Miranda, Robert Bergman, Karen Austin, Tori Austin-Allen and others will articulate the power of music and teaching. What you are doing is important. The interaction you have with learners everyday and the soulfulness of what you do impacts lives beyond your imagination--the power of one!

Communicating with parents and helping them understand what you are doing, to what extent you are doing it and for what reason their actions may be detrimental are difficult controls to discuss. You will learn to disclose positive persuasion techniques and verbal and nonverbal catchwords while staying focused on your well-being as well as that of your students

You--as an independent music teacher--have the power. Learning to embrace it and use it wisely is the goal of Professional Studio Saturday.
