Solitary strumming gave way to manic collaboration. I entered Swarthmore College with delusions of becoming some sort of academic, but quickly switched to a music major, finding it impossible to concentrate on anything else. Swarthmore only taught western classical music, and I was immediately out of my depth, cramming the fundamentals of music reading two weeks before my first theory course. Fortunately, this educational twist was a blessing in disguise; traditions collided and sparks flew. Read More

I continued on to practice regardless, but it was out of duty and not out of passion. Knowing those feelings and where they come from is key for a music educator, because it is important to know strategies to avoid replicating those situations in your own students. I frequently incorporate the student's musical tastes and choices into their lessons. If my student is at an age where they can "jam" with others, we will typically jam together, or if they have friends at a similar age and skill level, I encourage them to have a jam session where I can listen in and participate (and I can spot-check my student for technique and ask critical questions about their performance).
