Description

I had a coaching call a while back with a middle school/high school choir director who was facing several challenges, with the biggest one being that the members of their concert choir were not “buying in” to this director’s way of doing things.  This in turn was affecting not only the choir’s performance–as the director was struggling to get the choir to sing out–but also the general atmosphere and attitude of the choir. I’ve been in this EXACT position in my teaching career, and we talked at great length about some of the issues this director was facing, and what they might try to combat these issues.  In this episode of the podcast, I will share with you nine tips for getting your choir to “buy in”. Whether you are a teacher in a new position, or a 30-year veteran who is trying to raise the level of expectations in your program, these tips will help you increase the “buy in” that you are getting from your singers!If you want to dive deeper into topics just like this one, then you should really check out the Choir Director Corner Community Membership.  Inside the membership there are Online Courses, a Resource Library with over 50 PDF's and Google Docs, and Monthly Collaboration Calls where you can ask questions and get feedback on how to tackle your biggest teaching challenges.  And, when you join the membership, you'll also get a FREE copy of my PDF, "The Big Guide to Rehearsal Techniques", which has 75 different choral rehearsal techniques inside sure to add some spice to your choir rehearsals!Leading a choir doesn't have to be a DIY endeavor--it's better when it's done with others!  Come join an awesome online community of choir directors just like you over at:choirdirectorcorner.com/membershipSee you in the Community!
