Music Educators & Students ❤️ C4E!
Prof Atla DeChamplain, The University of Rhode Island
This is my first time teaching an asynchronous music class and C4E has been great! The course materials are great, and the tech support has gone above and beyond to help me do this well.
Dr. Audley Chambers, Oakland University
The Connect for Education music courses are a rich media content-driven text that can be used like a regular textbook or delivered to your target audience in a synchronous or asynchronous fashion. Most, if not all of their texts come with a variety of ancillary materials to help navigate, structure the course as well as engage students.
Piano Student: Joanna
There are many piano teachers but few really know how to teach. Thank you Yoo Ri for being an outstanding teacher by first understanding the student's struggles and then providing valuable techniques effectively. I am so blessed to have you as a mentor as you have helped me with so many different challenging struggles in playing the piano. For that reason, I do plan on continuing to learn. Thank you.
Kind and Understanding, Carissa
YooRi is a kind and understanding mentor, and strikes a balance between pushing me and being empathetic to my character.
Voice Student: Dasha
This voice mentor is very fun, energetic, and is willing to teach you so much even in 30 minutes. She is the most fun and useful mentor I've had. She sings very well herself and is a very creative person. She does not waste a single minute and gives good advice. I 100% recommend this mentor. Don't miss out and book your lessons!
Student: Sherrina
To the music text book platform was actually really helpful. Especially after completing assignments you get a check mark so you can see your progress. Also, I'm glad that I could go ahead and knock out a lot of the assignments after i was done reading the chapters instead of having to wait.
Prof Jerquel Rolle-Forbes
As lecturer, I found the platform and music courses very easy to navigate and user friendly...I also liked that the platform included everything and more in terms of material needed to prepare for instruction. From worksheets to scores, to animations and audio examples and so much more. When I needed tech assistance I always got a quick response and quick resolution.
Dr. Steven Thompson, American River College
American River College chose Connect For Education due to its deep understanding of music education and commitment to innovation. The partnership empowered the institution to realize its vision of comprehensive online music education, a feat unmatched by other publishers.
Prof Lance Ford, Carl Albert State College
I've had the chance to use C4E text in my music courses over the last several years. Not only is the content spot on, but the support is fantastic! You can't go wrong with this tool.
Prof. Oscar Dames, University of Bahamas
I have had the opportunity to teach Music Fundamentals 4th Edition course this past Summer semester via the OMC platform and it was perfect for me as my class was both online and Face to Face. At first, I was hesitant to teach a music class on such a platform as so many factors came into play. This platform is user friendly and is what I would call a “One Stop Shop, Everything Rolled into One”.
Violin Student: Angela
I learned so much from my violin mentor. I highly recommend him.
Student: Manleah
Using the OMC site for the music course was very interesting to say the least. I feel as though with regular textbooks we tend to get lost, and with this site it made me feel more engaged in what I was reading by providing examples and allowing me to find all the information I need with just the press of a button. The quiz set up I would say was overall okay, however having to press the “check” button after every answer became frustrating at times. Overall the listening aspect while reading would be my favorite with the site as well as being able to access my notes in one place.
