[musictlk] Music Education Major

[Bill]

Hi,

I cannot think of any of our customers who work as music educators in the
public schools.  Of course, somebody has to be the first, right?  

I hope someone on this list responds with more encouraging results for you.
Check out www.menvi.org and join their list too.  Post your question there
as that list is highly focused on education.

Regards,

I have asked a similar thing before, but I would like to ask again... 
more specifically.
Do you think as a blind person, it's possible to become an instrumental
music teacher in public school setting?
I know that there are some blind band directors working for school for the
blind, but I have not found anyone who works in public and/or private
schools as band/orchestra/choir director.
Is there anyone who is working in this field?
As I am applying to colleges this fall, I am planning to apply to a few
schools as a music education major.
I wouldn't mind too much directing ensembles at school for the blind but I
would prefer public school settings where majority of students are sighted.
I strongly believe or try to believe all the time that blindness shouldn't
prevent anyone including myself from doing something we desire, but I feel
the need to be realistic at the same time.
Would appreciate any feedback.
Thank you.
Miso Kwak
