Janet Mills - Instrumental Teaching

Oxford Music Education

• Suitable for instrumental and vocal teachers, wherever they teach
    Encourages teachers to reflect on and improve their work
• Draws on research and examples drawn from current practice
• Stimulating, challenging, and engaging
• Focuses on learning by young people, but is relevant to students at any age or level
• Centres on the teaching of classical instruments, but ranges more freely

What are instrumental lessons for? And why do so many students want to 'give up' when they have only just begun? These are just some of the questions examined in this thought-provoking and entertaining book, which draws on research and on the author's wealth of experience to encourage teachers to build upon the strengths of current practice.

Instrumental Teaching is for both those who have been teaching for many years and those who are starting out. It focuses on learning by young people but also ranges more widely, and it relates to all teachers, wherever they teach.
