Proudly Presents:

2005 Summer and Fall Semester Schedule
Go to Previous Page: http://www.kuzmich.com
| Dear Colorado Music Educators: My summer 2005 schedule is extremely demanding with teaching in Australia and New Zealand at the 2005 ASME National Conference (http://www.asme.edu.au/) for four weeks and teaching three national TI:ME (http://www.ti-me.org) National Music Technology certification classes for the Technology Institute for Music Educators. Consequently, I am only offering my own 14 summer music tech classes on a “To Be Arranged” basis. This will allow me to maximize my time to teach the fourteen classes listed below. Private tutoring will also be available as well at discounted rates. If you are not clear about why music technology workshops can have significant and direct impact on your daily teaching both at home and in the classroom, please go to: <http://www.kuzmich.com/Jeffco/Wideacres.html> for guidelines covering eight essential segments of music instruction. Note: all one-day courses are for 0.5 graduate level credits, two-day courses are for 1.0 graduate level credits and 2.0 graduate level credits for four-day courses at rather inexpensive college tuition rates of $30, $45 and $70, respectively which is the best buy in the entire USA for college credit fees.. Note: most in-service workshop times will be arranged but the TI:ME National Music Technology workshops are all scheduled because they are nationally advertised by TI:ME. National Music Technology
Certification Now Available The Technology Institute for Music Educators (TI:ME) offers a national certificate for music technology. John Kuzmich, Jr. is an approved training institute for TI:ME. Official TI:ME courses is part of the class, including workbooks that will be given to each participant. Two graduate college credits are awarded for 30 hours of instruction in each TI:ME course.

More TI:ME information about this innovative national music technology certification curriculum is available at: <http://www.ti-me.org>. Three TI:ME courses will be taught this summer at Dakota Ridge High School:
Summer 2005 Music Technology Workshops at Dakota Ridge High School Click for a graphical synopsis of summer, 2005, go to: September, October, November, June and July, 2005 Itemized Summer and Fall
Semesters, 2005
Note: if the advanced pre-registration form from the web site above and a $50.00 deposit check are not both received at least two weeks in front of the designated workshop, the workshop will probably be cancelled and replaced with private tutoring for music educators. Please e-mail to confirm whether the class is going as scheduled or changed to private tutoring. See alternative choice heading below for more information about private tutoring. Note: because John will be teaching in Australia and New Zealand this summer for four weeks and his private teaching has expanded, he listed all of his Dakota High School workshops as to be arranged so he could schedule them more creatively based on demand of the participants. Namely, he will schedule and teach any and all classes that are requested rather than just over scheduling for specific dates which actually limits what dates they will be offered. 2004-2005 Conference Music Education Technology Presentations! Music courseware offerings will be rather limited winter, 2005 semester because I’m presenting workshops at the following out-of-state international/national/state conferences.
Additional Summer, 2005 Offerings! Please advise if you want a different class not found here. There may be other educators desiring the same instruction such as for “Music theory and Ear Training” or “MIDI Basics” or “Intermediate/Advanced Music Notation” with Finale or Sibelius!” or "PDA's for Music Instruction" or "Music XML Connectivity for Power-Users." I can also structure any new music technology class for college credit provided at has 7.5, 15 hours or 30 hours of instruction. Alternative Choice: Private Tutoring with Flexible Scheduling and Reduced Rates! Normally, private tutoring is very expensive in music technology. My private tutoring rates range from $27.50.00 (4 hour minimum) to $55.00 an hour (for 1 to 3 hours) on just about any music technology topic including all the fall, 2004 semester courseware listed above. Music educators can also earn the same graduate level college credit if 8 hours are purchased for $220. If two or more educators enroll together, there is even a sliding rate scale that continues to go down further which is nice because your colleagues can study with you in a private class setting at a mutually agreed time and all participating parties get price reductions as well as college credit opportunities.
