Teaching composition to students who cannot read stave notation/have limited skills
I would like to thank you for two brilliant workshop days on Monday and Wednesday. All the Composition material was well-conceived, appropriate to our curriculum and extremely useful. I am positive our teaching staff left the sessions with valuable new skills and tools that they can use straight away in the classroom environment, either face-to-face or on-line.
We would like also to acknowledge the excellent AQA GCSE focused sessions -- the lack of published materials in this area is notorious and we were very impressed with the amount of resources presented during the workshops. This will certainly make our life easier when teaching the updated syllabus and new set-pieces.
