“The reason why people should pick a career in music education is because you’re teaching them self expression. You’re not just teaching how to play an instrument, you are teaching them how to express their feelings and cope with their emotions if needed.”
“We get to show the kids that you can make it. We have to show the kids that you can believe and be a leader. You have the power as an educator, use your platform.”
“I believe that music connects us to our true and greater joy. It is of high importance to become a musician because we can experience that joy and also share it with our communities.“
“You can help students connect with music and each other in ways that they may not get in their day-to-day.”
“If you find joy in seeing students have their ‘lightbulb on’ moments, then you will find joy in teaching.”
“Imagine a job in which every single day you experience laughter, love, growth, stability, music, music, and more music. This is not just a job. This is a CALLING.”
