TeachingLab

The art and science of teaching

It transforms the experience of guiding a student in technical and artistic development,
in a rewarding and exciting task.

Without exceptional teachers, even the best techniques are useless.

TeachingLab invites you to invites you to:

 

    • Change your perspective and position yourself as an expert in personal and artistic transformation processes.
    • To tread new paths as a teacher, backed by the ingenuity and evidence of the sciences and humanities and by the creativity and and passion for the subtleties of art.
    • Expand your ability to transform musicians, taking into account the person behind the voice/instrument.
    • Kneading and shaping your experience with refreshing scientific evidence to make the motivating and transformative vocal/instrumental development processes..
  • Leave the solitary work and seek inspiration together with colleagues. Not because it’s easy, but because it makes sense to take advantage of this little-explored exchange, called intervision, as the last reflective link in your singing/instrument lessons.

What will you learn in TeachingLab?

TeachingLab consists of 5 pillars on which you build your singing lessons, to inspire, guide and transform:

1. The change of roles and the infinite game: from musicians to teachers.

2. Safe ground of musical physiology.

3. The phases of the artistic learning and transformation process.

4. Communication between you and your student.

5. Intervision: the collegial exchange as a space for reflection for teachers and the last link to increase the efficiency of your classes.

Did you have any doubts?

Why do I have to be a professional singer/instrumentalist to attend this course?

Because your experience as a professional singer/instrumentalist is inescapable when it comes to taking responsibility for future musicians. Although I understand the teaching of singing/instrumentation as a very different job profile from that of the singer/instrumentalist, the teacher must be able to measure the scope of what he/she proposes to the student and also exemplify, if necessary, each sound or musical phrase that he/she asks of his/her students with absolute certainty.

What are guided classes?

Guided or tutored classes, this is what I call “classes in class”. In it you will teach a student, with my help and that of your colleagues present. We will reflect together on the steps to follow, putting into practice the knowledge acquired in each module. I will accompany you in the search for individualized solutions, depending on the case.

What is collegial intervision or collegial exchange?

Intervision is a practice that comes from professions such as psychology, pedagogy and social work. Through intervision you can present to a group of colleagues, cases of students that occupy or concern you, in an informal way or following a method that you will learn and practice in TransformaciónLab. Because as someone said: if you don’t know, it’s good to know who does!

What happens if I cannot attend a face-to-face meeting?

The online meetings will be recorded and made available to you in case you are unable to attend or want to listen to them again.
