RAMTA’s mentorship program is designed to serve two functions:

1.  To help experienced music teachers who are new to the Rochester area become acquainted with the offerings of RAMTA, MMTA, NFMC, and other local musical organizations.

2.  To help novice music  teachers by providing encouragement or advice when problems arise and by directing them to local, regional and national professional organizations.

Anyone who is new to this area, new to the profession, or simply wanting some additional stimulation is welcome to call Chris Anderson. Chris will put you in direct contact with a specific, experienced teacher from RAMTA who will become your friend, advocate, and foundation of information.

Do not hesitate to use this source of information regardless of how long you have been involved in teaching in Rochester. If you are interested in the next level of competition, looking for new ideas for everyday teaching, searching for new repertoire, or just need a friend who understands the frustrations of teaching, let Chris put you in touch with someone who understands your concerns.

RAMTA’s greatest asset, is its spirit of sharing musical experience. Our teachers aspire to promote fine musical teaching, not self-aggrandizement. Don’t be afraid to ask “insignificant” questions. Those are the ones we all ask repeatedly! 

Call Chris and welcome aboard!!
