Quote

"The chief act of the will is not effort, but consent." - Anonymous

Mr. Gookin, our director of bands and my Instrumental Music Methods teacher, keeps talking about this quote in class and how it relates to music education. So, my fellow future music teachers, what do you take from this quote?

  • So, you shouldn't force someone to do something, but let them do it. So let them learn the music as you go, don't shove it down their throats.

  • I think it also works for ourselves as well. We, as future music educators, have so much to learn and do. You aren't going to learn anything by forcing your mind to take it all in. The only way we can get anything accomplished is by acknowledging it and letting it in.
