Music Theory Teaching Artist (2023-24 School Year)
(taux horaire, contrat d'un an)
The OrchKids Music Theory Teaching Artist is a dynamic educator who teaches applied music theory to students in grades 2-12. The Music Theory Teaching Artist helps guide the theoretical understanding and development of all students/instruments across the program through group classes (15-20 students).
The OrchKids educational philosophy focuses on student-centered learning, evidence-based teaching practices relevant to our students’ lives, creation and improvisation, inclusion, student voice and agency, and ensemble music-making. This methodology aims to promote synchronicity and community as well as simultaneously cultivating high artistic instrumental skills (i.e. technique, theory, and diverse repertoire) and fostering creativity (e.g. improvisation and composition).
OrchKids supports the professional development of all our teaching artists by providing compensated and mandatory training on topics including trauma-informed teaching, classroom routines and practices, implicit bias and racism within the context of Baltimore City, and other pedagogical resources. Support and feedback is also provided through teacher observation, reflection meetings, and regular communication with Program Managers, Senior Education Manager, and Director of Programs. OrchKids Teaching Artists also have the opportunity to participate in a number of student concerts and partake in our unique Collective Composition workshops, during which we work with our students to create and perform new, original music.
