MCA seeks instrumental lesson instructors

The Minnesota Conservatory for the Arts, an affiliate program of Saint Mary’s, is seeking instrumentalists to teach private lessons for the spring 2010 semester.

Instructors will be responsible for establishing a lesson time, meeting with students, and planning exercises and repertoire to help students improve their performance. Preference will be given to candidates who have completed a pedagogy or teaching methods course and two years private instrument study. Instructors must have access to reliable transportation.

Instructors will be compensated $12 per half- hour lesson; students will register for 5 or 10 half-hour lessons in the semester. MCA does not guarantee that all instructors contracted will have students for the semester; teaching load depends upon student interest.

Send resumés or curriculum vitaes, including two references, to: Minnesota Conservatory for the Arts, Attention Christine Martin, 1164 West 10th Street Winona, Minn. 55987 or e-mail cmartin@smumn.edu. The deadline to apply is Nov. 30. For more information, contact Martin at Ext. 5501.
