Michigan Music Conference

  • Amway Grand Plaza - Emerald Room 187 Monroe Ave NW Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (map)

Maxwell will present an Interest Session at the 20th Annual Michigan Music Conference in 2025.

This session, titled “Methods Class to Music Program: Empowering the Early-Career Conductor” will focus on bridging the gap between undergraduate studies and the teaching profession. We'll delve into survey results from beginning and early career teachers, examining the aspects of the job they felt least prepared for, both in and out of the classroom. Equipped with this insight, we'll explore potential solutions, support mechanisms, and available resources for those transitioning from student to teacher roles. Additionally, we'll hear from mentors and cooperating teachers on their strategies for supporting students during the student teaching experience and identify areas where transitioning teachers may struggle.
