Last week we shared the first of a series of short video interviews with Dan Pinkston, instrumental music teacher at Monarch K-8 in Louisville, CO. Since then Dan received Boulder Valley School District’s “Impact Award,” for bringing “a high level of integrity to his work.”

This week we’d like to congratulate Dan and share more of his successful approach with you.

Today Dan describes how he and his students use SmartMusic in the classroom, and how SmartMusic helps them experience meaningful repetition of the music they are preparing for performance.

Because the new SmartMusic is web-based, students can use it wherever they are, and it works on iPads and Chromebooks as well as on computers. It includes an unmatched repertoire library, powerful new features (including the ability to create your own notation), and is priced starting at $39.99/year for teachers and $13.99/year for students.

Best of all, you can try it for free.
