Youth singers transform lives by teaching others

2022 was of great learning because 8 students were in practice and they were a great support for the teachers in the Christmas concerts (we had many!). Some of them led a song during the concert and one of them is ready to take a group in 2023.

Her musical and vocal mastery makes her very skilled at giving vocal examples to improve the sound of the choir and the group’s tuning is more precise. From the beginning she has been very willing to attend classes, collaborate and be aware of what she should do, showing interest and responsibility during classes.

We attach video with photos of the monitors and testimony of the girl who is ready.

On the other hand, some of the monitors did not have such good results and need more practice or work on administrative tasks, because they did not have the enough strength to work a class group.

monitor means student in training

The process of the monitors in the classroom has been very significant for the teachers, the choir and the monitor. In these practices the monitors must learn to communicate with the children, the parents, the directives of the institutions and with the teacher. They must also take the leadership and the initiative to propose activities, scenery, choreographies, costumes and, of course, carry out different musical activities in the class

 The monitors not only  prepare to teach singing, but aldo learn other skills such as solving problems that arise in a concert or in the classroom, managing institutions, organizing the group, among others.

She sees the happy childhood she had at the Sirenaica Foundation reflected in the children her. Thoughtful and careful to lead ideas that facilitate the teaching of songs, she multiplies the children’s achievements during the class.

Try to make examples in the exercises and songs that motivate and energize the practice of the choir. The best thing about her is her sensitivity, capacity for observation, delicacy with children and her beautiful voice at the full serving of her practicing

She will be an excellent teacher!
