How to be a good music teacher. In recent years there has been a low demand for music
educators in Namibia, particularly because of the educational regime implemented into the
country after its independence in 1990. Although our scholar curriculum was adopted from
our neighbouring country (South Africa), music education was not high on the list of
priorities of our redevelopment. Although it is a necessity, the importance of having a good
music educator has never been highlighted transparently. I will be presenting to you the
importance of a good music educator, what makes a good music teacher and the benefits of a
good music education.

Music is one of the most enriching expressions of the human being. When it is enhanced with
mentorship from an educator, it becomes more tolerable and pleasant. Good music teachers
nurture talent and the ability of their students, whilst striving for perfection and improving
their students work rate and ethics. Music educators also help you build your character.
According to Performing Arts, a web page developed by “New York marketing group” along
with the life lessons learned, taking music lessons helps young children develop into
productive members of society. It also increases coordination, improves emotional
development, builds imagination, curiosity and countless other benefits.

Good music teaching. Although music teachers are people who are required to teach specific
subjects towards their students, they are further required to be well-organised, conscientious
of the time, and they need to know how to be productive during the entire duration of each
music lesson. As music teachers they must also have a passion for teaching. Their teaching
process has to be youthful and flexible, and their students have to be able to adapt to their
demands. Great music teachers are also required to have a genuine love of music. When your
teacher is dedicated and enthusiastic, they’ll go the extra mile for you and put extra effort into
your education.

The benefits of being a music teacher. It offers you an outlet for creativity. Teachers design
their classrooms and plan lessons for their students according to their own preferences.
Teaching music is a very flexible job with both scheduling and the amount of hours you care
to work. Being a Music teacher is also a journey that leads to a rewarding and fulfilling
career as a good music teacher develops their students' mentalities by making them persistent
and consistent. Music teachers also help learners improve their in ordinary standards of
school through.

To conclude, great music teachers are keen to present their knowledge to their students
together with the methods and instructions they deem useful to teaching music. They have
aspirations of teaching and enhancing other peoples performances through music education.
They also find pride in educating other people and they believe that through teaching music
they can enhance peoples natural learning abilities through repetition and co-operation. Being
a good music teacher is a necessity that can be used to educate, nurture and teach people to
synchronise with each other, although they were designed to make people better musicians.
