I found the maths too difficult for the older ones!

I found the maths too difficult for the older ones!

the maths, english, science, the "health" (thank goodness for contract teachers!!!!)

 

[elm0]

still at uni, but will be teachign primary

undecided on what grade as i have done 2/3 as well as a 5/6/7 in prac. both were fun, the older group are better to talk to though as they are more interested in a broad range of things.

also lead the youth group at church so getting some experience in dealing with teens

That's awesome Adam, we need more male teachers in Oz! I've been working as a cleaner at a primary school, and there's only 4 males out of about 20 teachers.

Welcome to the forum adam. You are obviously musical. What can you play?

generally the fool

but at times trumpet and keyboard or keyboard and trumpet. also have a harmonica that i play with my nose. originally learnt on a euphonium that was found under the platform at port pirie corps in south australia. after a few years i realised that a trumpet is more accepted in big band settings.

Welcome to the cyber corps band. How are you on th cornet?

Sorry, that position is already filled.

 

[something from the fridge]

is the position of playing the clown available then?

with some practice i think i am competent enough on trumpet. can't play a cornet to save myself. seems weird but i just can't get a nice sound out of one. i the valves are closer to my face and it just trips me out

i do struggle with full on band arrangements of stuff. played 2nd cornet part at camp, only because they didn't have 3rd or 4th.

 

[Andy Broadley]

Euphonium it is then.

Euphonium it is then.

nope. can't play it anymore. lip is gone. and can't play a flowing eupho part to save myself

trumpet or keys these days

 

[Andy Broadley]

Yes but remember, this is cyber space, so it's a virtual Euph. We'll just get you a virtual lip to go with it.

Do you mind if a former soldier joins in? I was in the Sally's for two years after being saved, back in 1978-80.
I'm finding this forum very interesting, and is bringing back memories....

the Lord gave me my online name... I'm not comfortable with giving my real name on the net.

[Tavita]

Hey Elm0! How you doin'?
