Currently working towards a M.A. In Music Education at Teachers College, Columbia University. Anticipated graduation, Summer 2016.
The INSTEP Program allows teachers to work on their masters program during the summer and throughout the school year. Here’s some information from the website:
“Teacher College’s Intensive Summer Teacher Education Program (INSTEP) is designed for public, private, and experienced music teachers who are looking for a convenient and exciting way to obtain a master’s degree in Music Education.
INSTEP is guided by pedagogical and philosophical underpinnings that reflect current trends in rethinking and re-conceiving the teaching of music. This M.A. program requires 32 points in course work and will meet the recently conceived state and national teacher preparation standards.
Our graduate program will provide you with the analytical and critical skills required to integrate theory and practice, the hallmark of a Teachers College degree. By attending Teachers College you will have access to an unparalleled faculty and student body, many of whom have achieved national and international recognition.”
