Playing With My Uke Ensemble on Elementary School Tour
Lights, Camera, how’s the action?
This is a video from our workshop in which I demonstrate a common problem that many classroom stringed instruments have, and how to spot it.
Inquiry Proposal
Yesterday, my good friend Derek and I gave a successful workshop on guitar and ukulele. We covered the basics: the anatomy of the instruments, teaching methodologies, and techniques. We also delved into some interesting research regarding the pros and cons of tablature, and how to translate from one instrument to the other.
This process of learning from fellow teachers in our cohort is a very rich and rewarding experience, and I highly value our unique and diverse skill sets.

Unit Plan
I am looking forward to my extended practicum at Gladstone! Here is a link to a unit I will be teaching on the blues.
