The Band Director's Lounge Podcast

Download Episode!

Today I welcome back Jim Callahan for a brief conversation about living in the community where you teach & lessons learned from the first few years of teaching.

• Daily focus and day to day decisions
• Administrator relationships
• Music store road reps as a resource
• Networking and your subsection

If you missed the first episode with Jim, be sure to check out Episode #2 to learn about Jim and his program.

This was recorded on a day where Jim and I both happened to have a snow day for our district so we thought it might be great to check-in, reconnect and talk shop for a little bit.

If you haven’t done so, be sure to check out the newly launched thebanddirectorslounge.com. I just finished importing in the podcast episodes and am populating the website with new information, including a concise location to view all of the books that have been mentioned from each episode. Over the coming weeks and months I hope to grow this website into another resource not only for the podcast but with other band director resources as well.

As always be sure to hit subscribe to the podcast on your podcasting platform and check out thebanddirectorslounge.com for more information. Leave a review if you are able, this will help continue to get the word out about the show.

Thanks for tuning in! We’ll see you back here next time in The Band Director’s Lounge.
