What has inspired you to become a music teacher?
Music can inspire people in many different ways. Share about a time where music impacted you in a way you never thought was possible. Then, the interviewer can see your passion for the subject.
"When I first started high school, I took a music appreciation class, where I was subject to new genres I had never heard before. From this experience, I was able to experience music in a whole new way. In turn, it helped me grow in greater measure with the kind of music I took in and later performed."
