"Thank you so much, Anne! Prior to participating in your course, I didn’t think I would ever have the skills to run a music session for children.
Each week, I am running three half-hour music and movement structured sessions with small groups of 3-5 year-olds. We have seen shy children, EAL children and our early-start children build their confidence up and find their voice. Our children that have emotional and/or behavioural issues thoroughly enjoy participating in the program too, as it is an outlet for them.
Thanks for helping me to find my confidence and build my skills to deliver this beneficial program to compliment our kindergarten program."
(Nicole, Early Childhood Educator)
