Professional Development - AMEB Repertoire

Mark attended a full day seminar on 19/5, arranged by the Music Teachers’ Association, entitled “Expert Preparation of Beginner to Advanced Piano Students”. Teacher, pianist, and AMEB Examiner Anthony van den Broek gave an excellent seminar, highlighting many gems in the AMEB syllabus and how they can be used to create a positive educational environment for all piano students.

Mark is happy to teach from any syllabus, but as Anthony said the depth and breadth of AMEB, particularly for piano, is second to none worldwide, and Mark is looking forward to exploring some of the lesser known pieces with his students. He is presenting students in Comprehensive Preliminary, Grade 1, 2 & 6, and Piano for Leisure Grade 2 this year, and is also looking at the RockSchool curriculum for other students.
