Recently, I’ve been reviewing resumes and conducting interviews with a number of international teachers in order to find the best fit for our department. One of the main questions and points of my observation during the interview is the proficiency in music technology and ability to apply it in various teaching scenarios.
Since I strongly believe that the future of education lies in close bond with technology. With this article, I want to pose this question to you: What is your music technology teaching level? If you are not ready to answer immediately, don’t worry. I got you covered since I will help you to evaluate where exactly you stand on the proficiency scale and how you can go up.
