Choose to Teach Video from Amro Music

 

Here is the link to the  next “Choose to Teach” video from Amro

Here’s our next video in our Choose to Teach series! Today’s uplifting message comes from Florida band director Michael Gabriel.

“One of the most gratifying things is having students leave my program and continue playing — they keep it in their lives. I want kids to continue having the opportunities I had.”
