Teaching Interns
Perhaps the greatest advantage of being a Teaching Intern with ETM-Bay Area is the opportunity to observe and work with a seasoned music teacher. Interns see first-hand what it's like to work with children in a classroom setting. The ideas and routines used by the music teacher will be invaluable for any intern who anticipates working with students in schools, camps or private settings.

All TA interns are eligible to attend music teaching workshops provided by ETM-Bay Area. These workshops are invaluable to current or future music teachers. Training is provided in classroom management techniques, musical pedagogy and methodology, developmentally appropriate practices, learning theory, assessment, lesson planning, etc. For more information on requirements and how to apply, please contact info@etmbayarea.org
