About

Every year, Music Teachers are forced to do more things with less money, accomplish more tasks with less time and achieve more accomplishments with less support. Let's change that together! Through collaboration, our community of music teachers from around the globe share best practices, curriculum ideas, lesson plans... and their PASSION in our inspiring online community.

Our members submit lesson plans they would like us to create for them... Every month! No matter what area of music education, any instruments, any types of compositions and any part of any general music curriculum. We'll do all the heavy lifting including correlating to the appropriate standards. Truly allowing music teachers to spend less time planning and more time teaching.

With constantly changing standards accompanied by the 'latest' lesson plan methods, how are music teachers supposed to find the time to teach? We need to spend less time planning and more time playing! Our methods have been tried and proven by the largest school districts in the United States. Our community works together, collaborating on music education curriculum we all can use in the classroom.

"Music teachers should spend their time teaching music, not writing curriculum and lesson plans about teaching music."  Gregory Pavliv, a former public school music teacher, has earned a national reputation as one of the country’s foremost music education advocates as a result of his tireless passion to inspire and protect music teachers.  His powerful talks have motivated thousands of music educators and his creative approach to music curriculum has saved them countless hours of work.

While the National Training Director at Little Kids Rock, he created, maintained and enhanced programs in dozens of school districts, including New York City (NYCPS), Los Angeles (LAUSD), Dallas (DISD), San Francisco (SFUSD), Chicago (CPS) and Hillsborough County (Tampa, FL). He has delivered presentations and implemented curriculum in 26 cities across 14 states and was elected as a State Delegate to the NEA in 2008 where he authored legislation protecting performing arts in the public schools.
