Welcome back to part two of our conversation with the wonderful Erin Elliott!
If you tuned in to part one, you already know Erin is a creative force in the elementary music classroom—bringing joy, structure, and sparkle to every lesson she teaches. In this second half of our chat, we dive even deeper into the real-life rhythms of music teaching.
Erin shares more of her favorite classroom strategies, her passion for recorders (yes, recorder geeks unite!), and how she stays grounded and efficient—both in and out of the music room. You’ll also hear about how she sets healthy boundaries with her time, leans into her strengths, and finds little pockets of peace amid a full teaching life.
Whether you're looking for a fresh idea, a practical tip, or just some encouragement from someone who truly gets it—this episode is for you.
Let’s jump back in!
