In this episode, Dr. Christina Mathis explores the importance of systems - primarily policies, curriculum, and assessments - and how solid systems can benefit piano studios.
Key points:
- Every studio already has systems, whether or not they are intentional.
- Curriculum is one of the most formative systems in a studio.
- Practice expectations are often the greatest source of tension in the studio.
- Grades, evaluations, and festival preparation should reflect your pedagogical values, not override them.
- Policies that align with your values allow you to teach from a place of calm authority rather than constant negotiation.
