Evaluation Day 6

June 20, 2014 by hobbitgp

Hi {FIRSTNAME},

I hope you’re enjoying your trial access to {COURSE_NAME} (Access Code: {ACCESSCODE}) in the Consonus Online Learning Site.

Today I want to help you eliminate the #1 obstacle to your student’s success. Which is… Drum Roll… Lack of practice. So why don’t students practice?
Two reasons: motivation and accountability, or lack of it.

Motivation

So how do you motivate students to practice? In the Consonus Online Learning Site we use play along tracks to accompany skills and performance
repertoire that turn even simple skills practice into a music making experience.

Accountability

So how do you make students accountable? No problem. Use our online practice logs as a factor in student grades.

Teacher Practice Log Report

and verify student progress with our progress reporting tools.

Two more reasons why you should teach your next guitar or ukulele class using CMI blended learning courseware.

If you have any questions or thoughts please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

Jim Guss

Executive Director
