Problem Solving 101: Making Most of Your Rehearsal Time
Maynard, Lisa M.
Teaching Music, v14 n4 p38 Feb 2007
One issue that all teachers at all proficiency levels deal with in teaching music--whether in individual or group settings--is how to effectively solve problems encountered during lessons or rehearsals. What differentiates novice teachers from master teachers is the skill and efficiency with which they solve these problems. The seemingly effortless way master teachers identify and fix problems can be quite daunting to novice teachers, who often find themselves in the frustrating position of not knowing quite what to do. This article offers suggestions to ensure success at musical problem solving.
