Episode 9: How can music teachers prepare for their first year over the summer? - Education Through Music: The Podcast

This summer, we had the privilege to speak with Jessica Peresta, veteran music educator and founder and CEO of The Domestic Musician. Jessica started her teaching career at a low-income elementary school in Tulsa, OK, and over several years, built a successful program that won her Teacher of the Year and Teacher of Today awards.

She currently is the elementary music teacher at The Hill School, as well as the host of The Elementary Music Teacher podcast, the author of the book "Make A Note: What You Really Need To Know About Teaching Elementary Music", on the Teacher Advisory Board at Teacher Vision, and the professional development coordinator for F-flat Books.

As the school year approaches, we chat about tools and strategies that first year music teachers can prepare for over the summer as they get ready to enter their classroom and schools. Tune in to learn about Jessica's time-tested practices for developing habits, building relationships, developing lessons plans, and more - great insight for early career and seasoned music educators alike!
