- Being aware of the challenges and pressures of teaching online can help educators create a more supportive and effective learning environment for their students. Finding your feet as a teacher takes time and experience, whether it's in-person or through video.

We dive straight into this one! First off we chat about our current feelings towards social media and the impact it has on their creativity and motivation. We talk about experiencing boredom and numbness with platforms like Instagram and Twitter, and the pressure to create content that stands out. We discuss their recent experiences performing and the challenges of finding the line between inspiration and overwhelming information. Then we touch on the need for teachers to check in with students and tailor their approach to each individual. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the why behind practicing and the musical payoff of exercises.
