Remember that special teacher who positively impacted your life?

We all had those special teachers who were so engaging and unique in approach that we’ll never forget them. They helped us discover the magic of reading, amazed us with the power of math or science, taught us another language or opened up our world to music.

This video, gets to the heart of Muse teachers…

Muse Machine has considered teachers as the single most important factor in delivering Muse’s nationally successful model since its inception in 1982. We strive to cultivate more of those extraordinary teachers by celebrating and challenging them. We put them face-to-face with remarkable, global thinkers, artists and educators. Professional development opportunities happen throughout the year: at our Summer Institute for Educators and during the Advanced Teacher Training Seminar (ATTS)—several thought-provoking days in New York City.

“To be afforded the opportunities we are given to bring so much art, culture and connectivity back to our students; to be able to help our students understand the intricate relationships between the arts, their lives, society, history and their learning has been one of the greatest joys of my professional life. Finding others who not only share my love for students and the arts but also encourage each other to continue to grow and explore and be adventurous in our classrooms has been an unexpected opportunity and blessing. Muse alum Alex Finke stated that ‘Muse was the team sport for artists,’ and I am so blessed to be a part of this team. Thank you Suzy. Thank you Muse Machine.”
