MUSIC AND THE BRAIN

What are Music Educators Saying?

• 

  Nick Deutch, New York

  "I am absolutely astonished by how amazing this platform is. I don't have enough gratitude in my body to share with you how transformative you have been in my career as a music educator."

• 

  Cassandra Dorcely, New York

  "Everything that you need to have a successful program is in Music and the Brain! They come and see the keyboards and their excited. Seeing a student in the beginning not really get it and then their like 'I get it!' It's amazing watching the growth from 5 year olds to 11 year olds and how much the kids are receiving. I can always be creative in the lessons."

• 

  Natalie Lopez, Florida

  "I am in awe of what you guys have created! I don't think I have ever seen a music program that I feel genuinely hits everything I enjoy in ways I enjoy teaching it; almost like it was made for me!"

• 

  Whitfield Coppin, New York

  "I love the materials, I use everything - the videos, approaches and techniques, the tracks are awesome! Music and the Brain has really changed the way I teach the kids music and play the keyboard."

• 

  Jillian Ballow, New York

  "I always used to struggle and get upset that I didn't have the time to teach everything I wanted. MATB has everything I want to teach in a structured and engaging way. I have seen my students engaged and successful, and even more importantly, I've seen them feel successful in music. MATB has changed my life. I come into work excited and ready everyday!"

• 

  Mark D. Adams, Washington

  "The Kindergarteners came in with little to no musical exposure. The majority can now identify clefs, hands, patterns etc. MATB helps students know what the symbols mean and how to use them and that is what is important."

• 

  Angelica Ortega-Panchal, New York

  "Before becoming a MATB teacher, I didn't think about fine motor skills when lesson planning. I have seen how much the lesson activities improve fine motor skills. The videos such as finger warm - ups and piano prep videos, provide an expert model"

• 

  Tonia Le Blanc-Hampton, Louisiana

  "There are many more resources available for planning lessons and more lessons that are geared to the upper grades. These students feel a sense of accomplishment when the do the collaborations and improvisations. I have seen actual mood shifts occur when students feel that their peers liked what they did."

• 

  Courtney Mejia, New York

  "I am so much more effective because you equipped me to be a well - rounded teacher! I have all the resources I need in every aspect - engaging the kids (through the videos and word puzzles), asking the questions admin wants to hear (the scaffolded questions) and then having the students practice/perform for the class proves how they are growing as tiny musicians."

• 

  Ayamey Castaneda, Florida

  "It's the most wonderful thing that has happened to us Miami Dade County educators that have access to it. We get to enjoy our passion stress - free and we see actual progress in students as well as more engagement during instruction."

• 

  Michelle Odhner, Pennsylvania

  "MATB is the perfect instruction of the fundamentals of music, and a gateway to increasing skills on other instruments and ensemble playing, especially for young students."

• 

  Scott Bergersen, New York

  "It's amazing to have it all there in Music and the Brain. Anybody who is thinking about it for their school... It is an incredible program!"

• 

  Ginger Wu, New York

  "I think this program is amazing! I've taught many different pedagogies and this program program brings critical thinking and fine motor skills. The kids have fun and they really can play it! What is amazing is the process."
