Confidence in Primary Music (I07)

“The course has strengthened my ability to explain musical concepts clearly and to create meaningful learning experiences for pupils of different ages and abilities. I feel much more confident in using practical and creative approaches to teaching music theory.”

“Overall, this course has given me the knowledge, skills, and confidence to teach music more effectively and inspire pupils in their musical development.”

“Prior to this course I had very little understanding of music theory and concepts and little knowledge about how to create and carry out practical activities with my class. I now feel, using the resources the course provided I could confidently explain these musical concepts to my class and build a lesson around them.”

“What an amazing experience this has been. Before I started this course, I had little subject knowledge regarding music and my confidence in teaching music was very low. This course has enabled my subject knowledge to develop and progress my confidence in teaching the important elements of music.”

“This course has been an invaluable resource and has demonstrated how music can be a fun and engaging platform for both educators and students to develop their skills, creativity, and confidence.”

“I am now excited to plan and teach music lessons when my new class return to school in September.”

“The course was accessible and had some wonderful ideas that I will ‘magpie’ in my own music lessons. This course has improved my musical vocabulary and will allow me the confidence to use it in lessons.”

“I think that music is by far my weakest subject. Taking the ‘Confidence in Primary Music’ course has meant that I feel more confident in understanding the different elements that make up music, and the language that I should be using with the children when talking about the subject.”

“I have realised that the basics of music can be taught in a fun and playful way and that it is not as daunting as I thought!”
