My first experience teaching trumpet. I think that my demeanor was warm and nurturing. I think that it was a mistake to address my student as honey even though he is a fifth grade child. I think that it encouraged him to be flippant with me.
I think that I taught breathing and good posture well which were the main focuses of my five minute practice lesson. I think that I also used positive and practical motivation for my student to stay engaged in the learning goals. I believe that I was efficient but I also think that I should have talked less. I was also corrected by a fellow student teacher concerning the formation of the trumpet embouchure. I think overall it was a good effort on my part but I am very interested in reading the reflections of my other student teachers. I am sure they noticed things that I missed.
