    Pushing Past Comfort - The Teacher’s Role in Growth

    Flute 360 | Episode 310: “Pushing Past Comfort - The Teacher’s Role in Growth” In today’s solo episode, I’m talking directly to you, the dedicated flute teacher who might sometimes wonder if you’re doing it “right” when a student resists your guidance. Teaching can feel challenging, especially when we encounter pushback. However, I want to remind you that it’s part of the growth process! Together, we’ll dive into why this discomfort can be a powerful sign of progress, both for you and your students. I’ll share a story from my own experience working with Dr. Garrett Hope, and what it taught me about handling student resistance with understanding and purpose. As teachers, we’re asking our students to stretch beyond their comfort zones, but it’s crucial we’re doing the same for ourselves. This episode also includes a personal invitation to join me for a Mastermind and Masterclass on November 30, 2024. We’ll address key topics like studio success, student growth, and teaching strategies that truly make an impact. If you’re looking for support and practical tools to guide your students confidently, I’d love for you to be there. Call to Action: Ready to embrace your flute & career growth for 2024 and beyond?
