What an honor it was to interview my own band director: Mr. Mark A. Hensler for this very special FIFTIETH EPISODE!
In this episode, Mr. Hensler shares insights into his classroom management strategies, particularly the importance of pacing, as well as finding what works for you, and getting off of the podium. It has been years since I have been in a classroom with Mr. Hensler, but I continue to learn from the example he sets about creating an environment filled with joy, laughter, and high standards. I cannot wait for you to hear this one!
