Reaching and Teaching All Instrumental Music Students draws from
credible research and established approaches to offer practical
applications for the variety of music classrooms teachers face
today, many of which are not ideal. Kevin Mixon shares successful
techniques for recruiting and retention, garnering program support,
teaching for diverse learning styles and exceptional students,
classroom management, and teaching notation, composition, and
improvisation. This expanded second edition adds practical advice
on reading rhythm notation, teacher feedback, home visits,
community building, and establishing positive relationships_with
even the most challenging students. Mixon demonstrates that
fostering respect and going the extra mile are rewarding for
students, parents, and teachers alike.
