What happens when you get a room filled of dedicated music teachers at the local piano store in Seattle? You get the monthly meetings of Seattle Music Teachers Association (SMTA). We were luckily enough to get invited by Jeffrey Pettijohn, to share the importance of being online for local teachers who want to get more students at the October meeting earlier this week. It was great to see music teachers getting a better understanding of what we do here at TeachStreet, and having it really resonate. We were also able to connect with local friends like local piano teacher, Anita Manuel, who’s been with us since the beginning.
These SMTA meetings are structured to provide music teachers in the community with networking opportunities, music resources and tools to help music teachers. The meeting we were a part of revolved around online resources to get more students and a presentation by Dorothy Fahlman, an accomplished piano teacher, about improving and livening up music classes, both great information for local music teachers. The SMTA really does a great job to help their teachers and give them the opportunities to be more successful in what they do.
