Being an elementary music teacher comes with its own set of challenges, but sometimes the biggest hurdle is our own mindset. In this episode, I talk about three common mistakes we all make: focusing too much on our own missteps, dwelling on the negatives we see in our students, and worrying about what we haven't accomplished. These habits hold us back from seeing the positive impact we have in our classrooms every day.

I also share personal stories and insights on how to shift our focus. By giving ourselves grace, celebrating our students' joy, and recognizing our achievements, we can start building more confidence in our teaching. Tune in to hear how making these small changes can have a huge impact on your experience as an elementary music teacher!
