How can I successfully teach music to elementary school chilren?
I am teaching the guitar to little children and would like tips to keep them attentive. I teach in groups of up to 6 and some as young as 6. The issue is that unlike say the flute or trumpet, children can talk while playing guitar. Also when children are in groups they are disruptive and even the best child will cause trouble with grouped with other troublesome children. When I have to give special help to one child, the others cause trouble How do you in a half hour lesson, manage to teach someone successfully without wasting like a quarter of an hour calming the kids down?
Thanks everyone.
Yea, don’t teach guitar if you don’t have to. Guitar is really a 6 grade in up sort of thing. But if you must, remember that actually playing the guitar is an advanced lesson. There should be a lot of lessons before playing it in how to handle an instrument, and how to hold and instrument without making a sound. If you jump too fast, you really won’t get to teach anything so it won’t matter whether you call it guitar class or tuba class.
If I was in your shoes and I had to teach guitar to children this young, most of my class would be about good behavior with instruments, and the performance part of my class would happen primarly on the 1 string (the high E), and I’d just teach tunes on that high E. If they were older I’d teach chords, but getting an entire class of 2nd graders to play hot cross buns on the E string together is still impressive.
Remember the number one rule is if behavior around the guitar isn’t good, there is no guitar.
