A reception hosted by Scott McBride Smith...
The results of the MNTA president-elect race have not been officially announced. If you recall, Scott McBride stopped by 88PianoKeys while on his campaign trail and answered many questions in great detail--here's the post. Scott is inviting all to a "Keep in Touch" Reception at MTNA. Here are the details
Find me AND follow me on Facebook...
I'll post updates of my time at the MTNA conference on my Facebook page. By the way, make sure when you like my 88 Piano Keys Page to request to receive notifications of new posts. Go to the "Liked" tab and you'll find a menu. Request to receive notifications (see photo above.)
You'll want to do the same at my iPad Piano Studio Page. I recently shared an idea for pitch recognition games utilizing Wacky Wanda Word Game cards and a newly acquired app called Read Note that worked like a charm in my studio.
Teaching today piano teacher workshop...
I'm headed to Memphis to the Amro Music Store! On March 20th, the store will be hosting a unique Teaching Today Piano Teacher Workshop. Crossing my fingers that I'll meet some 88 Piano Keys readers in Tennessee? Can't wait to hear Kristin Yost, Jennifer Eklund and Ellen Gonzales. Looks like a great day. I believe Amro Music spoils their area teachers!
