What music teachers say about the ETM Academy... “The professional development provided by Education Through Music is unlike any other PD I have attended.” “Thank you, ETM! I feel much more prepared beginning my school year with a real game-plan for curriculum and repertoire.” “I wish I had this type of hands-on professional development when I first began teaching” “I like that all the sessions are focused on concrete teaching strategies and not only learning theories” “This conference is like summer camp for music teachers…great learning and great fun.”
