Oclef Daily: EP82 - The Teaching Window

Today I dive into the idea of how learning happens. For me, learning happens through an input that I call a "window". The window opens from the student's connection with the teacher. But parents have such a stronger bond and larger window with their children than any teacher can even imagine. So as teachers working with students, we spend time asking students "How was your week?" and do whatever we can to bond with them. But the reality is that their parent will always have a larger window to educate their child through. So why not build up the parent? Why not redesign your studio around the education of parents? What if that child received 7 lessons a week from their mother or father instead of 1 from you? Yes, the parents don't know as much about music. But all great music teachers know that teaching music is more about the process than the knowledge. Teach parents to teach. You'll be surprised.
