As an itinerate teacher I travelled between three school buildings within the district and sometimes two buildings within the same day. It was a challenge as well as very rewarding to have prepared them for the several wonderful performances that they did do that year. Since those early days, I have been afforded many opportunities to make a difference in the lives of young people by sharing my knowledge and experience teaching General Music PreK-Grade 8. Read More
