New Venture--Realizing a Dream














Embarking on a new venture can be scary, exciting, invigorating, enriching and evoke countless other feeling. These feelings can be both negative and positive, often at the same time. Realizing a Dream is such a wonderful feeling. Nothing ventured, nothing gained is so true. Investing in a new venture is an investment in yourself and your dreams. These can be as small as learning to quilt or play the piano for you own enjoyment to opening your own business.
taking on a project, learning new skills, and achieving personal growth is something that money can not buy.


Montessori

I am so excited because a dream of mine came true this week. About 5 years ago I met a wonderful woman with a wonderful job. She was traveling from San Francisco to Iowa to train teacher on how to make school more fun. She taught teachers and children how to learn more and be more productive through Music and Movement.

Soon after meeting this dynamic woman (in her 50's) I attended a workshop given by a popular children's song writer/musician with a Montessori background. These two event helped me formulate a plan.

I want to teach teacher how to use more music in the classroom. But first I want to be a Music Teacher in Montessori Schools. Well, as of Thursday, I am a Music teacher in my first Montessori School. I am so excited to start customizing my curriculum for this dynamic school. The Head of School hired me after a short interview. She has great energy and turly loves her job. I am so ready to begin collaborating with her to bring my music to her students and teachers.
