Inspire the Desire to Learn By Jane K. Reed
What if your students would come into your studio eager to learn? Children are excited about learning when they are actively involved in the process. They engage when they believe learning is happening “through” them rather than “to” them. Join this session to discover refreshing and motivating teaching strategies that re-ignite learning through curiosity, inquiry and self-directed learning.
Jane K. Reed is an internationally recognized Suzuki Piano Teacher Trainer, Piano Educator and Motivational Speaker from Greenville, SC. After earning a degree in piano performance from the University of Findlay, she found her calling in Piano Pedagogy. As she teaches throughout the US and other countries, she dedicates herself to promoting finer education for students, teachers and parents through deeper thinking, validated learning skills and building meaningful relationships between the child, parent and teacher.
She and her husband founded Solutionary Insights, an educational business dedicated to Nurturing Thinking Minds. The unique signature of this business is the intertwining of the respect of the value of individuals, the belief that all are capable of excellence, and the resolve that fine and purposeful teaching and parenting develops outstanding abilities.
