Alison Armstrong returns to the MTIIS podcast after 2 years (she featured in Episode 9) to let us know how things are progressing for her and her team at Tashkent International School, Uzbekistan and to ask for YOUR help with a project she is working on.
We know that designing a new music department space, completing renovations or getting things setup in a new school can be a difficult job. Often we don't know where to start or have trouble communicating our ideas to senior leadership and end up with sub-par spaces, resources and designs. Sometimes this is due to building standards or funding, but often it's due to a lack of information available to effectively communicate what we want!
So, Alison has developed a survey to help gather data and create a resource for the community!
She is looking for international school teachers working with students between the ages of 11-16 and with an interest in using breakout practice rooms during general music classes.
If this is YOU, please listen to the episode on then complete the survey below to help Alison create an incredible resource!
