Music as a Language - Reading Together - General Hints on Taking a Lesson in Ear-Training

In this chapter, Home simply lists thoughts and ideas on how to get the most out of teaching ear-training.

• Keep a record (notebook or otherwise) of both your lesson plan and what actually transpired during the lesson.
• Make sure that the current lesson serves as a link between what has already been learned and what will be taught in the future.
• As a teacher, learn how to lecture in an interesting manner.
• Have your students work as a group first, before they work split off for individual work.
• Have the students evaluate the tune before they sing it.
• Teach your students how to quickly notate music.
• Make sure to review keys previously covered, so that your students are able to keep their music knowledge fresh.
