In this episode of The Happy Music Teacher, Jeanette addresses a heartfelt question from Jaylen Fenner, an elementary music teacher struggling with feelings of inadequacy and burnout after teaching in a low-economic district. Jalen shares the challenges of balancing life skills and social-emotional regulation with foundational music instruction.
Jeanette offers compassionate and insightful advice, emphasizing the importance of the broader educational role that music teachers play. She reassures Jalen that the emotional and life skills imparted to students are just as crucial, if not more so, than traditional music fundamentals. Jeanette highlights that students will remember the care and life lessons long after they’ve left the classroom, underscoring the profound impact music teachers have on their students’ lives beyond the basics of music theory.
Jeanette also discusses innovative strategies for managing choir clubs, including using Google Classroom for music distribution and maintaining organization with Google Forms and Sheets. Throughout the episode, Jeanette’s supportive and encouraging tone reassures teachers like Jalen that their dedication to student well-being and love for teaching is invaluable.
This episode is a must-listen for any music educator feeling overwhelmed or doubting their impact, offering both emotional support and practical advice to rekindle their passion for teaching. Tune in to discover how you can support your students beyond basic music instruction and foster a lasting love for music.
