The Orchestra Teacher Podcast is Back!

After a much needed break and a few busy weeks back to school, The Orchestra Teacher Podcast is back!

Today, Sunday, August 29 at 12 noon EST we will be streaming LIVE with my good friend and special guest, Mr. David Eccles!

We will be discussing back to school, back to basics, and learning loss from a year and a half of hybrid teaching during the pandemic. Starting around 12:30 PM EST, we will also be taking LIVE callers from you, our audience, so you can ask us questions or let us know how your return to school has been, share your thoughts, or just say hello.

You won’t want to miss this, so be sure to tune in LIVE on YouTube or OrchestraTeacher.net. If you miss the live stream, you can listen to the recorded version on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Anchor.fm and more.

You can watch the live stream below…
