The SHSU Center for Music Education is excited to offer a professional development workshop for public school orchestra directors. The workshop runs June 9-11, 2025, and is in person on the campus of SHSU in Huntsville. Online participants are welcomed. Participants will work with outstanding teachers and will be offered excellent pedagogical resources for beginning through advanced students. Topics will cover teaching from the podium, how to recruit post-pandemic, how to set up a beginner, and many more. Accomplished teachers and musicians will address the significant issues of pedagogy, best practices, and creating success for students. The schedule will allow time for personal interaction with presenters and participants and is focused on giving teachers strong pedagogical tools and resources to use them well. A total of 18 CPE credits can be earned during our workshop. Please email Daniel Saenz at danielsaenz@shsu.edu if you have any questions about this workshop.
